My Story

Meaningful relationships are what fuel our emotional and psychological well-being and are essential to our survival.

Healthy relationships whether familial, romantic, or friendships can make life more purposeful and fulfilling.

Hi, my name is Lily and I am passionate about helping you heal, strengthen and grow your relationships to truly thrive in every aspect of life.

As a child, I sensed my parents were unhappy in their relationship long before I could truly understand it. After years of being unaware of the red flags in their relationship, they reached what seemed like a dead end. And like most couples, they went through the motions for the sake of their “child”. But somewhere along the way, they stopped believing that they could be happy together. The inherent pain and frustration that accompanies an afflicting relationship only fuels the negative emotions and ongoing arguments. This eventually leads to an emotional shut down on both ends.

I can help you break the cycle of these negative patterns and guide you to adopt a new and positive approach to your disconcerting situation. This will place you and your partner on the path of much-needed healing to rejuvenate your relationship. Such approaches allow both the partners to feel heard, validated, and safe while learning how to better meet each other's emotional needs. These tools have helped me in my own marriage and blended family.

These experiences along with many more have inspired me to help individuals, couples, and families in need to better their relationships and thrive. Thus my mission is to create a stronger community by strengthening its residents and families.

I am both excited and passionate about assisting couples and families in the Valley, Bay area, and surrounding areas to bring a simple yet contemporary shift into their relationships for the happy and prosperous life they deserve.
