Hours after a magnitude-6.5 earthquake struck Yunnan province, a team of eight psychologists were rushing to the quake's epicenter in Ludian county to provide counseling.
After contacting four hospitals in the county, the psychologists split into three teams to provide one-on-one counseling for quake victims.
One of the victims was Zhang Zhenfang, a 14-year-old girl from Longquan. Nine of her family members died in the earthquake, leaving only Zhang, her mother and three younger cousins. After the tragedy, she stopped eating and speaking for more than 30 hours.
