Dr. Zhu Yongyong blends cognitive neuroscience with personalized, arts-based approaches to support children's emotions, learning and family relationships.
From 2005 to 2007, Dr. Zhu worked in child and adolescent psychiatry and psychological counseling clinics at the Shanghai Mental Health Center, and assessed maternal perinatal mood and infant temperament at the International Peace Maternity and Child Health Hospital. From 2007 to 2016 she served as an attending physician in the Psychology Department of Children's Hospital of Fudan University, treating developmental and psychological conditions and advising on behavioral concerns.
From 2016 to 2017 she provided online guidance and counseling for child and adolescent behavioral issues on a well-known platform and led the creation of standardized online consultation workflows for pediatrics and child psychology. From 2017 to 2023 she established child psychology and rehabilitation clinics at a leading high-end medical group, integrating cognitive neuroscience and "frontal-lobe parenting" into developmental assessment and intervention.
Dr. Zhu offers personalized and arts-based counseling for emotional regulation, learning development, motor-cognition growth, social skills, parent-child interaction and sibling relationships in infants, children and adolescents. She specializes in cognitive-neuroscience-informed parenting and potential development, as well as expressive arts therapies such as play, sandplay and drawing. She also treats ADHD, depression, tic disorders, autism, language delay, developmental delay and somatization/psychosomatic conditions.
Dr. Zhu has a strong research interest in personalized, responsive parenting and parent-child neural synchrony. She founded a personal science-communication account in 2016 and collaborates with the Shanghai Early Education Guidance Center on systematic parenting education. She translated Pediatric Psychosomatic Medicine (published 2010) and, in 2022, created a motor-cognition screening system and an online sensory-integration home-intervention course. She passed the International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) examination in 2017 and has conducted research on prenatal/postnatal psychological intervention and early autism screening and follow-up.
