More about Liliana

7 years' experience
Female
LPC

Life often presents uncertainties, difficult decisions, and moments of hardship. You do not have to navigate these challenges alone. I strive to offer a fresh perspective, constructive feedback, and guidance to help bring clarity and light during difficult times. My experience includes working with individuals coping with trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use. I take a person-centered, solution-focused, and cognitive-behavioral approach, tailoring techniques to each client’s unique needs and goals. Additionally, I incorporate EMDR to support clients in processing and healing from traumatic experiences.

With several years of experience, I like to provide support and guidance in a way that feels meaningful and practical. Working alongside the client to uncover what you may be holding onto that could be hindering your progress. We will identify new perspectives and tools to help create the changes you want, enabling you to live a more fulfilling life.

I believe healing starts with feeling safe, seen, and understood. My goal is to create a warm, judgment-free space where you can share your story openly. Together, we’ll explore new ways to care for your emotional and mental well-being and move toward a more balanced, satisfying life.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
