Platform and service boundaries
An independent counselor directory: brand identity, professional boundaries and use of assessments.
Updated：2026-10-17
Independent identity
PsyToday at psytoday.cn is an independent Chinese-language counselor directory. It is not Psychology Today, its Chinese edition, a branch or an authorized partner. References to Psychology Today identify a separate organization and do not imply affiliation.
Directory services
The site helps visitors find and compare counselor profiles and contact counselors directly. A profile is not a medical license or a guarantee of suitability. Counseling arrangements, fees, confidentiality and cancellation terms must be confirmed directly with the provider.
Articles and assessments
Articles provide general information. Assessments support self-reflection and are not a diagnostic service or a substitute for a professional evaluation. A counselor title must not be assumed to indicate physician status.
When immediate help is needed
If there is immediate danger or a medical emergency, contact local emergency services or seek in-person medical care. The site is not an emergency response service.
