“I first contacted Lillian after suffering from insomnia for several months. Being the perpetual people-pleaser that I am, she showed me how to firmly, yet respectfully, set boundaries for myself, something which I never was very good at. Lillian is very easy to talk to, we always had a good laugh and after every session she left with an insight into either myself or my situation that I was completely unaware of how much it was affecting me. I had more than one person tell me how much better I was during our sessions and I would call her again in a minute and would definitely recommend her to anyone suffering from anxiety and insomnia, it is so much easier to handle with some help.”

“I am so grateful to have found Lillian. I was skeptical at first going to therapy but when my anxiety became unmanageable, I found Lillian and I am so happy I did. We met weekly and she helped me tremendously with anxiety I had been dealing with for years. She would use certain "tools" as she would call them for example; breathing techniques, mindfulness activities, etc. These "tools" I still use months later to help with my anxiety. I have learned to not fight my anxiety but in turn, embrace it and therefore my life is manageable. My life has changed so much after working with Lillian and I am so happy I found her. She is very easy to talk to and I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a therapist. She truly is passionate in her work and wants you to become the best version of you.”

“As a Veteran, it is difficult to come forward and seek help for traumatic past events. However, once I achieved that hurdle Lillian guided me through the rest. She was a calm and safe presence, truly a great new non-judgmental and understanding friend. Working with her truly helped me sort out some things and be able to move forward more positively. I truly enjoyed working with Lillian and would recommend her to anyone.”
