I’m an Associate Clinical Counselor, but you might also call me a self-healing supporter and wellness enthusiast. I help clients who want to get started on their healing and wellness journey but don’t know or where to begin. So much of what happens to us in our life is kept silent because of shame or embarrassment- and the fear that no one will really understand what we are going through. I provide clients with a safe space where they can express themselves, process through the pain and overcome the barriers blocking their full potential.

I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 30 years and have a wealth of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families.

I believe that people have the innate ability to improve their lives when given focused therapeutic attention. My goal as a therapist is to help people develop skills to manage whatever life may bring them. I use emperically based treatment methods, a belief in the strength of the human spirit and a sense of humor to work with clients.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, sad, worried, or currently having a difficult time with a transition period? I know how difficult making changes in your life can be.

The most rewarding aspect of my work as a therapist is supporting my clients in connecting with their values and learning ways to break through mental barriers and overcoming life challenges. By becoming more aware of the nature of the mind and our relationship to it, we are better able to open up and willingly take steps toward becoming the sort of person we want to be, deep in our hearts. This opens the door to a better understanding of how beliefs and attitudes towards ourselves, others, and the world have become conditioned, and how earlier life experiences have impacted and shaped our sense of self over the course of time..

Hi there! I’m Lilly, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who is passionate about helping my clients on their journey of personal growth, positive change, and healing. I often work with individuals who struggle with self-esteem issues, effects of trauma, difficulty coping with environmental stressors, relationship issues, and feelings of worthlessness or being lost in life.

"Life is difficult. . . a series of problems." Scott Peck wrote in Roadless Traveled. I can't describe it any better, but there are so many possibilities, changes that can happen when you take a step of courage. Therapy is a good way for some self reflection, to face the challenges, accept it and be at a better place. I believe that challenges are opportunities, for growth and strength; you can't do this alone, social psychology says. Let me help, to provide a safe place for connection and empathy to take that step, explore what may be holding you down and how you can be free and to live the best that you can be.

I believe in you. You’ve made it here, which means you’ve already taken action for change. Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered on your path to well being. You do not need to be on this journey alone. As a therapist, my goal is to understand your goals as deeply as possible. This will mean changing the way you think, feel, and act on a daily basis. Over time you'll develop useful strategies to modify your thoughts and behaviors. We will know our work is done when you are thriving in the life that you envision. You will take our work with you after we end and reap the benefits throughout your life.

Life can feel chaotic. Whether you are considering your first time in treatment, continuing or returning to treatment, my goal is to provide you with the platform and skills to effectively evaluate, identify and create solutions to help you. It’s important to remember that therapy is not always about ‘fixing’ a problem. Sometimes, it is about learning how to work with the problem by creating awareness, strengthening insight, developing or broadening skills you already have. It is a joint effort between the therapist and the client, working together, to impact change and bring balance to what may otherwise feel out of control.

The essence of this approach Somatic Science (R) is highly effective at supporting your nervous system to become regulated, relaxed and harmonized with itself & the external environment. This approach helps you to develop a basic capacity for self-attunement and self-regulation, which are essential for satisfying relationships with yourself and others.  Ultimately, this approach can result in a depth and breadth of self-discovery, presence, joy and peace that most spiritual traditions claim to be extremely rare. ​The aim of our approach is to enjoy life with happiness; no more and no less. Our physiology is at the core of happiness.
