About Eileen
She focuses on problems such as stress, depression, grief, and relationship strain. She also helps with LGBT concerns, parenting stress, and trauma and abuse. Her work includes attention to adoption and foster care, attachment issues, gender dysphoria, and mood disorders among other areas.
Eileen draws on approaches grounded in attachment work, client-centered care, and cognitive behavioral techniques. In practice she listens first, then offers concrete ways to notice patterns, change reactions, and try different responses. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
She has long experience supporting Deaf community members and is fluent in American Sign Language. Her background as a first-generation Asian-American and a member of the LGBTQ+ community informs how she attends to cultural and identity concerns. That perspective guides conversations about belonging, identity, and resilience.
People who meet with her can expect straightforward language and practical steps to manage anger, improve relationships, and handle life transitions. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule with her based on availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. Online or remote sessions can help identify these patterns and try new ways of relating in everyday life. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so people can explore their own goals and values; that supportive stance works the same way whether conversations happen in person or online. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and uses concrete exercises to shift them, which adapts well to homework and short practice tasks between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try approaches collaboratively. If one method isn't helping, adjustments are made so sessions remain practical and goal-oriented.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, by saving commute time, allowing check-ins during a work break, or letting people use phone or video options based on what suits them. Licensed professionals can still use worksheets, thought records, and behavior experiments that fit remote work, helping people practice new skills between meetings.
