Hello I am a woman age 39. I counselor referred me to Lilo. I was always unsure how I felt about therapy. I felt that "talking" cant solve everything. I scheduled my appointment and it was different and I was not fully open to it even after 1yr of appointments. I am saying this because I now understand that this is a journey. I never understood what taking accountability is, I only assumed it meant admitting you are wrong. My life flipped upside down 3yrs ago and only last year I finally got it. I went back to Lilo and she welcomed me with open arms and it felt so good. It felt so good to talk to someone that has seen my growth, Lilo during an appoint said to me after I shared "I am hurt and angry for you, this was not ok." No one has ever said that to me. There a little things that stick with you when you talk to a professional. There is a guidance and confidence when taking advice. Lilo is knowledgeable, empathetic, and really sees things from both sides. Her words of advice and confirmations have helped me become patient, have perspective, keeping my cool because everything is ok because I am doing the work. Weather life has pushed you off a cliff with no bottom, or put up a wall to stop you, please give therapy a chance. You deserve happiness. It takes time but just do the work and I promise you will feel it. Be open and honest. I love you. read more
