Dr. Qianhui Zhang

Psychologist

Virtual • Illinois


I'm Dr. Qianhui Zhang, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a PhD in Counseling Psychology and over 15 years of experience working with young adults, students, and professionals. My practice has been primarily centered on international students, immigrant communities, and BIPOC professionals — people who are often navigating not just personal struggles, but the compounding weight of cultural transition, systemic stress, and identity in a world that wasn't always built with them in mind. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, anxiety and depression, intergenerational and complex trauma, attachment and intimacy difficulties, and the particular pressures that come with high-functioning burnout. I also work with eating disorders, grief and loss, relationship issues, identity development, and psychedelic preparation and integration. I offer individual psychotherapy, group therapy, psychological evaluation (including immigration evaluations), and consultation and training for therapists and other professionals. I conduct sessions in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, and see clients in person in Chicago as well as via telehealth across 43 PsyPact states.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Illinois


I am a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of experience in healthcare. My experience caring for people with a wide range of physical and mental health needs has shaped my belief that our mental health is deeply connected to the many factors in our lives—including our physical health, relationships, life experiences, and everyday stressors.

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, insomnia, mood changes, stress, life transitions, and the emotional challenges that can accompany chronic illness, neurocognitive disorders, aging, and caregiving.

I hope to help you move toward better health, greater balance, and a healthier, more peaceful life.
