Zhongjie (Ben) – Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), Under Supervision

Hi, I’m Zhongjie, but you can also call me Ben. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), currently practicing under clinical supervision in accordance with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) requirements.

As a first-generation immigrant from China and a former international student at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, I bring personal insight and cultural understanding to my work with clients. My goal is to sit with you—human to human—to better understand what brings you to therapy and to support you in working toward your personal goals.

I use a humanistic-experiential approach, emphasizing authenticity, emotional connection, and deep listening. In our sessions, I strive to offer a non-judgmental, compassionate, and curious space where your thoughts, feelings, identity, and life experience are welcomed and respected.

With a background in neuroscience, I also offer support using neurofeedback therapy. Whether in talk therapy or neurofeedback, I approach your experience as a student of your perspective—your lived story is more important than any theoretical model.

I offer therapy in English and Mandarin Chinese, both in-person (in Ottawa) and virtually. If you are curious about working together, I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to help you determine whether this might be a good fit.
