About Lillian

She focuses on practical steps people can use to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship struggles.

She uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal motivation for change and Solution-Focused Therapy to build small, useful steps that add up.
How Lillian works
Sessions tend to center on identifying strengths and using those strengths to solve immediate problems. Lillian emphasizes clear, doable goals rather than long lists of abstract tasks. Over nearly four decades in mental health, she has worked across social work roles and provided help with parenting concerns, family stress, career strain, anger, bipolar mood issues, and life transitions.
That experience informs a practical approach to common challenges. She pays attention to communication problems, feelings of emptiness, struggles with self-love, and questions about life purpose. Lillian aims for an empathic, client-centered style.
She listens without judgment and helps people pick manageable next steps. Her sessions focus on building coping skills that fit a person’s daily life and responsibilities. People who choose Lillian often want clear guidance, steady support, and techniques they can try between meetings.
She works in English and is licensed as an LCSW in North Carolina.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change by asking questions and listening for what matters to them. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure how to begin a shift in behavior or habits.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and on what is already working. Sessions focus on clear goals and on building tiny changes that add up over time, which fits concerns like stress, communication problems, and life transitions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. Together they adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy with Lillian uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick updates, messaging between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain steady progress.
