One thing Lily is most passionate about is mindfulness.
Lily's favorite definition of mindfulness is “paying attention to your life, here and now, with kindness and curiosity.” (Amy Saltzman) Through work in therapy, Lily helps clients find this mindfulness of kindness and curiosity in their internal dialogue, which empowers them to make the changes they desire in their lives.
As a yoga instructor, Lily has learned the importance of being present with each client in each struggle. In session, clients are able to practice this mindfulness and presence. Lily believes in the power of integrating the mind and body to create a foundation for grounding oneself.
In Lily’s experience working with many clients, she has seen them trying to fit into smaller and smaller boxes that they are not comfortable with, but rather were imposed on them by societal standards. Lily strives to help clients challenge these boxes and find ways to live in much larger ways than these small boxes allow. Emotional freedom is possible for you too!
Lily works closely with clients who are struggling with anxiety, body image, disordered eating, low self-esteem, relationship stress, trauma, and LGBTQIA-related issues. Utilizing the principles of Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Storytelling, and Intuitive Eating, Lily supports clients who are trying to find confidence in their choices.
Through work together, Lily commits to finding the things that add value to your life while letting go of the things that detract value. Lily is devoted to helping clients in their personal journey of finding the life that they want to live.
