Eileen Fung is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey with 20 years of experience working across the life span. She provides individual psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults, bringing focused care to concerns such as stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family challenges, grief, and mood disorders. Eileen also works with clients facing ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, and seasonal affective disorder, and supports people navigating adoption, foster care, immigration, and multicultural concerns.

She specializes in serving members of the Deaf community and the LGBTQ+ community, placing emphasis on intersectionality and cross-cultural influences in identity and healing. Eileen is fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and advocates for the Deaf community, blending cultural awareness with clinical skill to support clients whose experiences cross cultural and linguistic boundaries.

Clinically, she draws from Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. Her approach centers on building trust, exploring relational patterns, and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms and improve functioning. As a first-generation Asian-American born to immigrant parents and a member of the LGBTQ+ community, she brings personal insight to her work and a commitment to culturally responsive care.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape patterns of connection and trust. In online sessions this approach helps clients explore relational wounds, improve emotional regulation, and build more secure ways of relating to partners, family members, and themselves.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and the therapist's nonjudgmental presence. This method supports clients in finding their own solutions, enhancing self-understanding, and strengthening self-esteem by creating a collaborative, respectful space for growth.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and stress-related concerns, and can be adapted effectively to remote formats.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Eileen works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and to tailor interventions accordingly, adjusting methods over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for scheduling, reduces travel time, and can make consistent care more accessible for people with busy lives, mobility limitations, or geographic constraints. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver evidence-informed treatments in formats that fit the client’s routine and comfort level.
