Artist	Jiang Zhaohe (Chiang Chao-Ho)
Title	Dr. Bingham Dai
Additional Information	Dai Bing-Heng (Dr. Bingham Dai), 1899-1996, was one of the first native-born Chinese to be trained in the new theories of psychiatry and psychology. In 1929, he travelled from China to the United States, where he obtained a M. A. (1932) and Ph. D. (1937) from the University of Chicago. In 1935, he returned to China and joined the faculty of the Peking Union Medical College. As a teacher and practitioner of psychotherapy, Dr. Dai began to develop his unique theories and procedures for treating patients through what he called self-study. This method combined traditional Confucian and Taoist principles with modern psychological theories, producing a course of treatment that enabled patients to understand themselves and the causes of their illnesses. With this self-knowledge, patients were empowered to find comfort, hope, and health. After the Japanese invasion of China in 1937, Dr. Dai left China in 1939 and returned to the United States. He accepted a teaching position at Duke University, in Durham, North Carolina, where he taught until his retirement in 1969. Following retirement, Dr. Dai moved to Spruce Pine, North Carolina, and lectured at nearby Appalachian State University. Here, he also provided clinical training to the staff of several regional mental health centers.
