About Eileen

Eileen Fung is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and grief. Sessions are offered in English and American Sign Language for people who use ASL.

Fung uses practical, talk-based methods to help people understand what fuels their reactions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy helps explore how early relationship patterns shape current responses to stress and anger.

Her background includes focused work with LGBTQ people and members of the Deaf community. Fung names intersectionality and cultural context as central to the work. She recognizes how immigration, gender identity, and cultural expectations can affect mood, self-esteem, and coping.

In sessions she helps clients notice triggers, practice different responses, and try small behavioral experiments between meetings. The work can include addressing panic or social anxiety, navigating relationship boundaries, and managing frustrating workplace or family dynamics. She also supports people dealing with adoption, attachment concerns, and trauma-related symptoms.

People who use ASL can work directly with her in sign language. Her experience covers a range of mood disorders and neurodiversity concerns, including ADHD and bipolar mood conditions. For anyone unsure how to start, she asks a few questions up front and then focuses on clear steps to manage anger and stress.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current reactions. Online sessions using this approach look at patterns of closeness, boundaries, and trust to reduce frequent emotional flare-ups. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's perspective and priorities, letting conversations guide what to tackle first and keeping practical goals in sight. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts, feelings, and actions into clear steps and gives simple experiments to try between sessions to test new ways of responding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide whether attachment work, CBT, or a client-led focus fits best. That decision is based on the person's goals, daily life, and what feels most useful in early sessions.

Session formats supported by this therapist are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also accommodate ASL users who prefer to work in sign language. The therapist and client will discuss practical scheduling and format preferences as part of the intake process.
