Hi! My name is Liliana Palacios, and I want to tell you that I've spent the last 18 years helping people from all walks of life through their troubles and successes, being their cheerleader and advisor through thick and thin alike. I am originally from Mexico City and lived there until I was 24. There, I went to college and earned a BS in Organizational Psychology.
Moving to the United States as a young mother, I decided to focus my energy and efforts on being a mother to my two girls, but that didn't stop me from pursuing and earning my MA in Professional Counseling. While being a stay-at-home mom, I volunteered for several years at the local Mental Health Mental Retardation agency and as a crisis line phone volunteer with Contact Crisis Line. After finishing my education and becoming independently licensed, I started working with parents and children who had suffered abuse and women victims of domestic violence. Some of the issues that I have expertise in are relationship violence, childhood sexual abuse, sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, drug and alcohol abuse, marital problems, parenting coaching and training, delinquency in youth, and problems of childhood and adolescence. I have also facilitated domestic violence support groups for Hispanic victims and parenting classes in Spanish for parents of children and adolescents.
Over the past 14 years, I have focused my work on advocating, assisting, and guiding parents of children on the autism spectrum in looking for services and support for themselves or their children. Previously, I worked closely with caregivers of elderly or ill loved ones during all the stages of caregiving and end-of-life concerns. I am a nationally certified counselor and clinical trauma professional, and I have trained extensively in grief counseling and therapeutics.
Now, I believe that no matter how many fancy titles and certificates one might have, the success of a therapeutic relationship depends a lot on finding the right person for your current situation. I like to be warm, supportive, friendly, and open. Still, I will not sugarcoat or hesitate to tell my clients when I feel they are doing something that can bring them trouble or hurt them more than help. Therapy is a process of self-discovery, finding our inner strengths, and learning how to be happy, fulfilled, whole, and fully present for ourselves and our loved ones.
I hope we have a chance to get to work together to get you to where you want and deserve to be!
In good health,
Liliana

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I truly don’t think I could have found a better therapist for myself. She’s great.
Liliana is so thorough when she speaks and gives me great comfort. I highly recommend her if you're suffering from any anxiety or panic attacks.
Sweetheart!! that’s all I have to say. very compassionate and understanding. Knows exactly how others feel and helps them to develop themselves into a better version. Highly recommend!!!
My therapist Liliana makes me feel so confortable and I can talk about anything without her judging me. I love my therapist and I recommend her to everyone! I also love her vibes. She’s such an amazing person <3
Since having Liliana as my therapist, I have healed immensely (and I'm still healing!). She helps me navigate grief and dealing with loss. I know she is very loyal to her clients based on the way I've seen her conduct business. I'm truly grateful to have Liliana as my therapist and I would highly recommend her!
She is very intuitive and a great listener. Makes you feel like talking to a trusted friend. Her advise is always intelligent, practical & easy to digest. I'd have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone.
She is amazing. Really hears me and her advice is eloquently delivered.
Lili es lo mejor!
Creo que sería genial más opciones en español, incluyendo cuestionarios y terapeutas!
Liliana is so wonderful. She is sharp, compassionate and focused in such a gentle way. A tremendously gifted professional. ;Exceptional. I look forward to speaking with her and getting issued uncovered and resolved. She is a blessing. :-)
Wonderful
Excellent therapist , she helped me a lot❤️❤️❤️
Simply put the most understanding of all my struggles, sincere mutual respect, and the best therapist I have ever had. Thank you
Professional, yet kind and a warm cozy feeling. I feel like she's my twin from another nation. Learning a lot about myself and how to better serve ME. You are fabulous Liliana
All good and very kind help during the time. Very much happy to have consultation with her
M only problem is that my counsellor is in California and I'm in Britain! My internet connection is poor so video doesn't always work. Even on the phone I sruggle a bit. I'm happy to persist because Liliana is really very good - empathic, non-judgemental and basically kind and understanding.
