Dorothy Chin holds a doctorate in clinical psychology and has spent 25+ years in academia, publishing over fifty articles and chapters in peer-reviewed journals on cross-cultural psychology, trauma, racial discrimination, and post-traumatic growth.

Her Psychology Today blog, “A Different Lens,” has garnered over 50,000 views, and her writing has been featured in the Los Angeles Times, West Magazine, Stanford Magazine, PBS News, Yahoo News, San Francisco Examiner, San Jose Mercury News, Dallas Morning News, The Conversation.com, The Wire Science, and elsewhere. A Writing Fellow at the Virginia Center for Creative Arts in 2023, she is at work on a memoir about the travails of growing up in one culture and parenting in another.
