    Dr. Wei-Jen Huang 黃維仁博士 is a clinical psychologist and a faculty member at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Dr. Huang is internationally-renowned for his work on couples’ therapy, relationship education, and multicultural issues. He has been a repeated invited speaker for the Governments of China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, as well as the Qatar Foundation, providing training and consultation on relationship issues. Dr. Huang was the 2004 United Nation International Family Conference Keynote Speaker, as well as the 2014 Rotary International Assembly Keynote Speaker (RI has over one million members, consisted of business leaders from 250+ nations). He was recognized as a national leader and invited to meet President George W. Bush at the White House. Dr. Huang is the recipient of the 2013 AACC Diversity Award, and the 2015 Northwestern University Distinguished Service Award. Generations of Northwestern students have been raving about Dr. Huang’s insightful and heartwarming lectures, affectionately referring to him as“Dr. Love.”Dr. Huang believes that everyone has power to hurt or to heal others, and Love can be Learned. Therefore he has created the highly acclaimed 12 session“Journey to Intimacy: Emotional Intelligence and Personal Growth”Relationship Enhancement Program (JTI 親密之旅). This 12 session Chinese Language Relationship Skills Training Curriculum has integrated the active ingredients of several state of the art empirically validated therapy approaches, such as CBT, DBT and EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy). The JTI Curriculum includes 12 DVDs, Leader’s Manual and Participants’ Workbook. JTI focuses on developing insights regarding intrapersonal and interpersonal dynamics, enhancing communication and conflict management skills. The goal is to equip Chinese mental health professionals and paraprofessionals to reach out and serve millions of Chinese people in need (especially for those who normally have difficulty accessing mental health resources due to cultural stigma, financial difficulty or the lack of trained Chinese people helpers). Over 20,000 facilitators in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Europe, South Africa, Canada and USA have received JTI facilitator’s training, and through the small psychoeducation groups they conduct, JTI has already reached thousands of Chinese families. All JTI group participants are encouraged to focus on their own personal growth rather than changing others, develop emotional intelligence, learn relationship skills, and seek professional psychological services as needed. “Listening is Loving, Empathy is Healing”, and “To Love is to Bring Out the Best in Each Other”. Let's learn to be students of life, for life. If interested in learning more about this resource please contact : (journeytointimacyusa@gmail.com)

    Leadership in a national/international professional organization; significant service to

    Northwestern University 2015 Distinguished


    Service Award Nomination Statements
    It is with great enthusiasm that we nominate Dr. Wei-Jen Huang, Staff Psychologist and Group Therapy
    Coordinator at Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), for the Distinguished Service Commitment
    to Excellence Award for 2015. For the past 19 years, Wei-Jen has profoundly impacted the Northwestern
    community by touching the lives of students, their families, and his colleagues.

    International Leadership
    Wei-Jen has a life mission to help others in need. Thus far in his career, he has trained over 20,000 people
    throughout Asia and the U.S. to be counselors, focusing specifically on communities without mental health
    resources. A poignant example of Wei-Jens impact is described by multiple families, who after learning
    communication skills in his workshops, were able to end domestic violence in their lives and expressed
    gratitude in letters they sent Wei-Jen with updates on the happiness of their families.
    Wei-Jen has also given multiple keynote speeches at international conferences focusing on relationship
    skills, social justice and compassion. For instance, he delivered a keynote at the Rotary International
    Conference in 2014 to more than 600 representatives from over 150 nations (it was like a smaller United
    Nation), and the speech was simultaneously translated into multiple languages.

    Northwestern University 2015 Distinguished


    Service Award Nomination Statements
    Significant Contribution to Northwestern Student Life
    Wei-Jens professional contributions and accolades are numerous and have left an indelible mark
    on campus life. He helped brand and develop Northwestern community and wellness programs that
    are now hallmarks of the institution. For instance:

    Behind Closed Doors: the RA training in mental health, peer counseling and interventions.
    Contacts and Connections: bringing together Student Affairs and campus partners to share
    experiences and build community.

    Emotional Intelligence trainings: where each year students pack Searle Hall to learn about

    relationship skills and the science of emotional intelligence from Dr. Love.
    Most notably, he has coordinated CAPS group therapy program for many years. Every year
    students rave about their experiences in group therapy. Student testimonials include: The most

    important education Ive had. This is life-changing. The love and support I was given was
    amazing, I will always cherish it and never forget it!. There should be more people in the world
    like Dr. Huang.

    Northwestern University 2015 Distinguished


    Service Award Nomination Statements
    Mentoring Activities
    Wei-Jen has been a clinical supervisor for hundreds of Psychologists-in-training. All of us know and use his
    phrases (i.e., Part of the Northwestern family, My dear brother, thank you for your gift, you never know who
    you will meet on the train of life.) His kind heart and gentle spirit has touched Northwestern and psychology
    students alike. He has such a natural way of encouraging trainees while also gently challenging their advancement.
    Observing Wei-Jen touch the most hard to reach students is an invaluable training experience. Wei-Jen also

    mentors new staff members and welcomes them with love, acceptance, and warmth. He is committed to training
    other staff in group therapy and shares his wisdom and compassion generously.
    Despite all of these accomplishments, Wei-Jens greatest contribution is who he is as a person, and how his spirit
    impacts every student, parent, faculty and staff member he encounters. He is a master teacher of relationships and

    self-love. We are all more compassionate and better human beings for working alongside him. His service has
    truly been distinguished, and his impact will echo for years to come.
