After retirement, Sui Yanling found some of her friends stuck in anxiety and pain because of family issues. She decided to learn psychological knowledge and obtained qualifications for a marriage and family counselor.

Sui began to provide counseling services for couples with relationship concerns in the marriage registration center in Daxing District of Beijing in 2020. So far, she has helped more than 400 couples solve their marriage crises free of charge.

Apart from marital counseling, Sui also engages herself in pre-marriage counseling and family counseling for infants aged below three years, among others.

"People are now turning to professional marriage counselling," Sui said. "Through our efforts, couples can navigate through the crisis and work things out." (Xinhua/Ren Chao)
