Hi, I’m Liliana! I’m a bilingual, Spanish-speaking therapist who believes therapy should feel like a space where you can truly be yourself—without judgment and without feeling like you have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door.
Over the years, I’ve learned that there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. My style is warm, genuine, collaborative, and supportive, while also being honest and direct when needed. I believe there can be space in the therapy room for humor, even while doing difficult work. I want my clients to feel comfortable, understood, and safe enough to talk about the things that aren’t always easy to say out loud.
I work with children, adolescents, adults, parents, and couples and have extensive experience supporting clients through anxiety, life transitions, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, emotional regulation, school and social difficulties, and self-esteem. I especially enjoy working with children and teens and helping them better understand themselves, their emotions, and the world around them.
As a bilingual and culturally responsive therapist, I value the different cultures, traditions, identities, family dynamics, and life experiences that shape who we are. I strive to provide an inclusive and affirming space for all of my clients, including members of the LGBTQ+ community.
I also understand what it feels like to sit on the other side of the room. Having experienced my own therapy journey, I know that opening up, becoming vulnerable, and looking honestly at your own story isn’t always easy.
Learning to understand your own story is one of the bravest things you can do. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. Sometimes, simply deciding that you’re ready for something to feel different is the first step you need to take.
