Therapist

Virtual • California


I was born and raised in the Bay Area and have spent more than six years working as a therapist and medical social worker in a variety of settings, including healthcare systems, schools, and community-based programs. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with individuals across the lifespan, which has given me a broad understanding of the unique challenges people face at different stages of life.

I earned my Master’s Degree from California State University, East Bay, and specialize in supporting individuals experiencing PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety, grief, and work or life stressors that impact overall well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a focus on helping clients process difficult experiences, build resilience, and develop practical tools to navigate life's challenges. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and equipped to move toward healing and lasting growth.

Psychologist

Virtual • California


Hi, I'm Noel, and I'm glad you're here. I'm a bilingual psychologist who works with Spanish-speaking adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and the stress that comes with major life changes. I've spent 16 years sitting with people through some of the heaviest moments of their lives, and one thing I've learned is this: the people who feel the most overwhelmed are often the ones carrying the most strength they haven't yet had room to use. That's where I come in. I work entirely via telehealth, so you can connect with me from anywhere in California — from the comfort and privacy of your own space.

Some things you've been carrying for so long they've started to feel like part of who you are. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults who are navigating trauma, grief, loss, and the weight of experiences that don't just go away on their own. People of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, socioeconomic situations, gender expressions, and sexual orientations find a real home in my practice, including folks within the LGBTQIA+ community. Clients often tell me they feel genuinely heard in a way they haven't before.

Therapy with Lili is a space to slow down and finally exhale. Whether you're feeling consumed by overthinking, emotional overwhelm, or simply tired of carrying so much on your own, you don't need to have it all figured out before showing up. Together, we'll explore not only your thoughts, but also the ways your nervous system, experiences, and relationships have shaped how you move through the world. I approach your story with curiosity, care, and humility, using everyday language and relatable metaphors to help things feel clearer.

My specialties include anxiety, overthinking, grief & loss, guilt & shame, burnout, chronic pain, and relationship conflict.
