About Liliana
Liliana Palacios is an LPC who helps people when life feels overwhelming or stuck. She offers a steady, compassionate presence for those dealing with relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, grief, or major life changes. Liliana speaks English and Spanish and aims to make it easier to speak about what matters most.
Her sessions focus on understanding patterns that cause pain and building practical ways to change them. She uses clear strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance-based methods to help clients manage emotions and make different choices. Liliana also draws on client-centered and existential ideas to keep therapy grounded in each person’s values and real-life concerns.
Over 19 years she has worked with people facing trauma, domestic violence recovery, caregiving stress, and parenting challenges including support for parents of children on the autism spectrum. Those experiences shaped her belief that being heard matters more than quick fixes. She aims to create a respectful atmosphere where clients can talk honestly and try new ways of coping.
Sessions tend to mix practical skills, emotion regulation tools, and reflective conversations about meaning and connection. Liliana invites clients to set goals together and checks in on progress as therapy continues. Her approach balances direct feedback with warmth so clients can build clearer boundaries and stronger relationships.
People who reach out often want help with communication, managing intense feelings, or adapting to life after loss or illness. Liliana encourages small, steady steps toward greater calm and clearer choices.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) zeroes in on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving relationships through skills like distress tolerance and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Liliana will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made and new concerns come up.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or letting someone join from a more convenient location. It also makes it possible to use in-session exercises, worksheets, and real-time practice of skills to apply between meetings. Licensed professionals can help tailor timing and methods so therapy fits daily routines without promising a specific outcome.
