About Eileen

Eileen Fung uses client-centered and evidence-based techniques to guide people through stress, anxiety, grief, and parenting concerns. She is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - practicing in New Jersey. Eileen writes plainly and listens closely to understand each person’s priorities and values.

Eileen brings 20 years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on issues such as mood disorders, trauma and abuse, LGBT concerns, and relationship and family challenges.

Background and approach

She also addresses areas like adoption and foster care, attachment issues, gender dysphoria, and immigration-related stress. Her sessions blend Attachment-Based Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a client-centered stance. That means she pays attention to connection and patterns from relationships while also helping people notice thinking habits and try small behavior changes.

The overall tone is collaborative and practical. Eileen is fluent in English and American Sign Language, and she highlights cultural context in therapy. She draws on her background as a first-generation Asian-American and an advocate for the Deaf community to stay attentive to identity and community influences.

People interested in working with her can expect straightforward conversation about goals, coping strategies, and next steps. Eileen emphasizes clear communication and mutual decision making about what to try in therapy.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how connections shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions can help people notice relationship patterns and practice different ways of relating. This approach is useful for those who want to improve closeness, trust, and emotional safety in relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities and pace. The therapist listens without judgment and helps clients find their own solutions. This style supports self-esteem, identity questions, and life changes by centering the client’s voice.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. In online sessions CBT often uses clear steps and homework to build coping skills for anxiety, panic, or mood problems.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue work between meetings. Many people find that remote sessions let them access licensed professionals without long travel times and keep progress moving forward.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
