About Lily
Lily Divino is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and difficult life transitions. She works with teens, young adults, and adults who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck, or unsure about next steps. Lily aims to create a warm, respectful space where people feel heard and can move at their own pace.
Her style is collaborative and practical. She uses trauma-informed care and evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address immediate concerns and build skills for everyday life. Lily also pays attention to how culture, identity, and systems shape someone’s experience and decisions.
Much of her work has been in healthcare and community settings, so she brings a familiarity with stressors tied to work, caregiving, and institutional systems. That background helps when coping with compassion fatigue, chronic illness, or caregiving strain.
Lily pays attention to relationships and family patterns while focusing on what an individual needs right now. She supports people impacted by sexual violence, domestic violence, and other forms of trauma, along with related issues like guilt, shame, and self-harm.
She practices in New York and offers services in English. To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.
Approaches that guide online care
Many of Lily's methods focus on skills and practical changes people can use in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and replace it with more useful behaviors and coping strategies; it is often used for anxiety, panic, and depression. Motivational Interviewing centers on what matters to the person and supports small, doable changes when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about making a shift.She also uses trauma-informed care, which means recognizing how past harm can shape reactions and pacing work so the person feels ready. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process - the therapist and client talk about goals, try things out, and adapt methods based on what feels most helpful.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm session options before booking because the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It can also let someone connect from different locations when that best supports ongoing care. A licensed professional will discuss practical arrangements and help match the approach and format to individual needs and daily life.
