About Feifei
Feifei Chen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Illinois with three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, family difficulties, and anger. Feifei speaks English and Mandarin and helps people who are sorting through life changes and relationship strain.
She prefers a direct, client-centered way of working. Sessions focus on what a person is facing now and on small, practical steps they can try between meetings. Mindfulness techniques are used to help notice strong feelings and reduce reactivity during tense moments.
Feifei aims to make sessions a place to talk honestly about frustrations, resentment, and the effects of caregiving or long work hours. She also addresses grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, and career questions. Conversations are respectful and focused on real-life strategies rather than labels or lengthy theory.
When anger shows up as explosive moments or as simmering resentment, she helps people recognize triggers and practice different responses. Communication skills and clearer boundaries are common topics when family problems or relationship tension are present.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. Clients set goals, and progress is checked in simple ways each session. The plan can shift as needs evolve, with mindfulness and client-centered techniques guiding the work.
How client-centered and mindfulness methods work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the moment. The therapist listens without directing, and people decide what to work on. This approach helps when someone needs to talk through anger, relationship strain, or life transitions.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to notice emotions and bodily signals as they arise. Learning to observe anger without immediately acting on it can reduce impulsive responses and make conversations calmer.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps in day-to-day life.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as this profile does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins on a workday, or avoid travel time. If someone prefers shorter practice exercises or guided mindfulness they can be built into regular meetings so the work fits into everyday routines rather than adding extra appointments.
