About Anqi Zhao

Anqi Zhao comes to Ellie with a few years of experience as an addiction counselor. Always touched by people’s strength and courage through adversities, she is currently a Counselor Trainee, attending Wright State University to obtain her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology in China, where she was born and raised before moving to the U.S. in 2015.

Human-centered and depth-oriented, Anqi is especially interested in helping clients explore patterns and develop insight. She has also grown to value the practical side of growth and strives to help clients translate self-understanding into meaningful change through action, coping skills, structure, support, and mind-body connection. She is naturally patient and good at meeting people where they are.

Anqi works with adults and some adolescents. She embraces the variety of her clinical experiences and is interested in developing specialty areas in executive functioning challenges, behavioral addictions, multicultural exploration, personality-related concerns, and legal system involvement. She is also knowledgeable and affirming of diverse sexuality, relationship structures, and relationship dynamics.

Anqi grew up as a reader. She has two dogs and two cats, enjoys nature and hiking, and values time spent with loved ones, in support groups, and at community events.
