About Dr. Baozhen Xie
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in Virginia with over 20 years of experience in providing psychotherapy. I have found profound meaning in my work and have had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds. My extensive experiences include addressing anxiety, depression, college and graduate student mental health, trauma, relationship issues, and adjustment/life transitions.
Additionally, I have worked with many Asian/Asian American individuals, international students, and immigrants. My own cross-cultural experience, along with extensive training in multicultural counseling, have enhanced my attunement to the impact of social, cultural, political, and historical contexts on individuals' level of distress.
Approach to Treatment
I provide evidence-based and culturally responsive services, integrating multiple approaches in my work, including mindfulness, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), cognitive-behavioral techniques, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
Most importantly, I aim to collaborate with you in establishing a safe therapeutic relationship. Many of our sufferings stem from chronic disconnection—from others and from ourselves. With safety and trust, healing can begin. If you believe that my experience and skills could be beneficial to you, please feel free to reach out here.
