About Feifei

Feifei Chen is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Illinois with three years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, family conflicts, and career-related strain, and brings a calm, client-focused presence to each session.

Background and approach

Feifei uses her LCSW and LICSW training to support clients through life changes, grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting challenges, and compassion fatigue. Her style centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions and practical concerns.

Feifei blends client-centered listening with mindfulness techniques to help people build awareness, regulate difficult feelings, and try new ways of relating to themselves and others. She also addresses communication problems, divorce and separation, immigration challenges, and issues tied to family of origin and isolation.

Feifei provides services in English and Mandarin and works with clients who are located in Illinois.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathic space where the client's own goals and values guide the work; this approach helps people clarify what matters to them and make changes at their own pace. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and awareness practices to help reduce reactivity and manage stress and anxiety, offering tools to respond to difficult emotions more intentionally rather than automatically.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to each person's needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods over time so therapy feels useful and aligned with what the client hopes to accomplish.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and continue care from wherever the client is located within Illinois. These options offer flexibility for different communication styles and allow therapists and clients to maintain regular momentum between sessions when needed.
