Q: Looking for a psychotherapist/psychologist/psychiatrist in Beijing

Can anyone point me in the direction of a psychotherapist in Beijing?  Looking for someone with reasonable rates, English speaking, and good at dealing with things like angry rumination and depression.

probably the best thing you can do is leave China to deal with these issues.

But seriously, there is a BIG stigma regarding mental heath issues!

If yours is a serious question and it's really about you, seek help immediately in any of the major hospitals that serve foreigners.  I'm not in BJ, but a quick online search should give you reliable results.  Don't put it off, man.  And don't worry about the cost.  Guaranteed it's far less expensive than in the West.  Good luck to ya.

I'm guessing that you will need a referral from a GP. There is a Global Doctors in Beijing. It is an Australian company, and their clinics usually have at least one western doctor (American, Australian, etc).  I always look for them if I am sick in China, as I prefer them over Chinese medical standards.

 

At the very least, this doctor will have studied some psychiatry at a western medical school, and should be able to refer you to someone else, if available.

Thanks everyone.  And I like Sorrel's answer, that made me laugh.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
