About Ruifeng
Dr. Ruifeng (Richard) Cui is a clinical psychologist licensed in West Virginia. He holds a PhD in clinical psychology and brings seven years of experience to his practice.
He presents a calm, practical approach aimed at people dealing with stress, anxiety, sleep trouble, or depression. Richard focuses on clear problem solving. He helps people name what is hard and then outlines small steps to try.
Sessions are meant to be straightforward and grounded in real life.
Background and approach
He emphasizes workable strategies rather than jargon. He draws from several evidence-based approaches, including cognitive-behavioral methods and acceptance-based strategies. He also uses client-centered listening and mindfulness techniques to help people notice what matters and make changes.
These methods are adapted to each person’s needs. Many people consult him about parenting concerns, relationships, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. He also addresses sleep problems, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Richard pays attention to cultural and immigration-related issues when they are part of someone’s story. Sessions are offered in English and are available via multiple online formats. His license is listed as WV Psychologist 1326.
The work starts with identifying practical goals and building tools that fit day-to-day life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, parenting stress, and when someone wants clearer goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches specific skills to change them. It often helps with sleep issues, panic, and mood shifts. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can help with stress and anger.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest techniques from these methods. Sessions can blend approaches so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single style.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins or step-by-step coaching possible between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family and work schedules and to keep progress moving forward.
