About Feifei
Feifei Chen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Illinois with three years of professional experience. She focuses on common life strains like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and family issues. Feifei speaks English and Mandarin and helps people who are navigating career difficulty, grief, parenting stress, and changes that feel hard to manage.
Her approach is direct and practical. Sessions concentrate on what is happening now and on simple steps people can try between meetings. She uses client-centered methods to follow the person's priorities and mindfulness practices to build calm and present-moment awareness.
Feifei pays attention to family of origin problems, communication breakdowns, and caregiver stress. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, social anxiety, and feelings of emptiness that show up in young adulthood and women's lives. Immigration-related stress and divorce or separation concerns are part of her focus as well.
Meetings are meant to be a place to talk through feelings and try workable changes. Conversations are kept focused and practical, with attention to daily routines, relationships, and work demands. The goal is to reduce what gets in the way of functioning and to develop clearer steps forward.
People who value straightforward guidance and a focus on everyday life often find this style useful. Feifei will listen and then help plan simple strategies to reduce distress and improve communication over time.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own concerns and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to figure out what matters most. This approach helps when someone wants practical problem-solving and clearer communication about work, family, or relationships.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and to notice patterns of thought. It can help with anxiety, stress, and managing low mood by training small daily practices that fit into regular life.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they will try approaches and adjust based on how the client responds over several sessions.
Confirm current session formats before booking, since formats are not specified in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in during a work break, or avoid travel time. If a person prefers exercises they can practice between meetings, mindfulness and client-centered conversations translate well to remote sessions. Ask about exact session options when scheduling to match the format to daily life.
