"I tend to the whispers of humanity in therapy rooms, then echo them into the world."

I am a psychotherapist that works in two dimensions: In the quiet, where I sit with clients one-on-one or in small groups, doing the deep, intimate work of healing; In the public eye, where I amplify mental health awareness—translating patterns of resilience and collective strength into tools for the broader community.

What defines me is the bridge I build between these spaces. The therapy room reveals universal truths about suffering and growth; my passion lies in carrying those truths outward, with sensitivity and rigor, so they resonate far beyond its walls. I am not just a therapist. I am a translator of the human experience.

Ms. Xiaojie Qin

is a certified counselor and psychotherapist in China, holding both the Chinese National Level 3 Psychological Counseling Certificate and National Level Psychotherapy Certificate. She holds a Master’s in Counseling from Monash University (Australia) and a Master’s in Development Evaluation from the University of Antwerp (Belgium).

In the first decade of her career, she served as a program coordinator and an evaluation specialist in global development, working extensively with international NGOs. Building on this experience, she founded CandleX in 2015 - a mental health organization where she now serves as director, combining her cross-cultural expertise with psychological practice.

With extensive professional experience, Ms. Qin offers individual, couples, and group therapy sessions both online and in-person. She provides therapy for clients dealing with depression and anxiety disorders, with particular experiences in supporting clients with bipolar disorder, survivors of abusive relationships, and those navigating grief and loss. Her practice also focuses on adolescent mental health, providing therapeutic and mentorship support to teenagers from international schools across China and overseas.

Deeply engaged with both Beijing's international and local communities, Ms. Qin has developed CandleX's programs to fill critical gaps in mental health support. Over the past decade, she has delivered specialized trainings, seminars, and presentations for international schools, corporate clients, embassy partners, and UN organizations, contributing to national-level mental health campaigns. Beyond her therapy practice, she is well recognized for her innovative nonprofit mental health initiatives, reflecting her profound commitment to community wellbeing.

A Sichuan native fluent in Chinese and English, Ms. Qin bridges western therapeutic frameworks with culturally attuned care for both Chinese locals and expats in China. Her professional insights on mental health in China have been sought by CGTN, ABC News, Reuters, The Guardian, and other major international media outlets.

"我在咨询室里聆听人性的低语，再将它们回响于天地之间。"

我是一位既做心理咨询又做大众科普的"两栖"心理健康工作者。每天在咨询室里听到的一个个真实故事，让我深深理解人性的脆弱与坚韧，每一个来访都让我为之感动和震撼；这份感受，推着我走向公众，在这个容易让人感到孤独的时代，我希望把咨询室里看到的人性微光，用专业科普见解和最人性的故事，转化成温暖和激励更多人的力量。
