About Liliana Palacios

Hi, I’m Liliana Palacios, LPC.

For nearly two decades, I’ve had the privilege of sitting with people during some of the most vulnerable and meaningful moments of their lives. Whether you’re feeling stuck in painful relationship patterns, overwhelmed by life’s responsibilities, or simply longing for more peace and connection, therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect, and begin moving forward.

I work with individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves and their relationships. Many of the couples I see are struggling with communication breakdowns, trust issues, emotional distance, or the lingering impact of past hurts. Together, we explore the patterns that keep partners feeling misunderstood and help them rebuild connection, respect, and emotional safety.

Originally from Mexico City, I began my career studying Organizational Psychology before moving to the United States as a young mother. While raising my two daughters, I completed my Master’s in Professional Counseling and began volunteering with crisis services and community mental health programs. These early experiences shaped my belief that healing happens when people feel truly heard, respected, and supported.

Over the years, I’ve worked with survivors of trauma, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I also have extensive experience supporting parents of children on the autism spectrum and caregivers navigating the emotional journey of caring for aging or ill loved ones. As a fully bilingual therapist (English and Spanish), I am passionate about providing culturally responsive care and creating a space where clients can express themselves in the language that feels most natural and comfortable.

I am a Nationally Certified Counselor, Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist, and Certified Mindfulness-Informed Professional, with additional training in grief and trauma-informed care.

While training and credentials are important, I believe the most meaningful part of therapy is the relationship we build together. My style is warm, honest, and collaborative. I will support you, challenge you when needed, and celebrate your progress along the way.

You don’t have to figure everything out alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater clarity, resilience, and connection.

— Liliana Palacios, LPC

“She’s a great listener! I can laugh and cry with her!”

“I am grateful to having Liliana as my therapist. She has helped me with issues and I know things will get better.”

“She is a great Therapist”

“I could go on and on and on about how great therapy with Liliana is. She’s just a fabulous therapist all around, and I feel like she has played a monumental role in my mental health journey. Before I started therapy with her, I hadn’t really connected with many therapists on a level that made me feel comfortable to tell them whatever was on my mind and discuss things on a deeper level that felt authentic and actually gave me something I could take away from the session and apply in my life. It had taken a lot of back and forth with myself before I even decided I wanted to give therapy another go since I didn’t feel like I had ever gotten anywhere with it with previous people I had received therapy from in the past. I really have just completely changed my mind about therapy and the effect that it can have in my life because of this experience with her as a therapist in my life, I recommend her to anybody who is seeking therapy and wants to have a nonjudgmental experienced and kind empathetic, funny and passionate therapist who cares about her clients and shows that she cares through her practice. I feel like I haven’t had a lot of therapist through online therapy that made me feel like they were actually personable. I feel like there was always a barrier with the phone or the video chat screen in front of us and after one session they come back and forget who I even was the next time, but that is not the case with Eliana. She has remembered me every single time and has made me feel like my time is something that she is invested in and she’s invested in me as a client and when we are working together. I feel like she has completely made a point to address my concerns and remember when I’m meeting and bring up things that we’ve talked about in the past and help us see the bigger picture over the arch of all of our sessions. she is phenomenal. I very much appreciate everything about her and I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

“Liliana is great! She listens to me and gets me. She is helping me to move closer to achieving my goals!”

“She is awesome”

“My first session with Liliana gave me confidence to be able to trust her and respect her expertise and guidance.”

“Very supportive, connects with me on multiple levels to help me understand how to process my feelings.”

“Mrs. Palacios helps me get to the root cause of my concerns with my mental health. She also has great techniques to help with anxiety.”

“I wish Liliana could be my everyday go-to person. Yes, I said “everyday,” like my everyday life coach. I wish I could talk to her every day, at least twice a day. She is a genuinely amazing therapist, and she is the second person in my world who truly knows how to listen.”

“Liliana has been a wonderful therapist. She holds me accountable and offers wonderful advice. I can tell she deeply cares about her work with me.”

“Liliana is a great therapist and she has helped me a lot.”

“Liliana is a great therapist.”

“Liliana has been a great help to me. This is my first time with therapy and she has been amazing at listening to me and providing insight to help me work through my problems. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“My therapist is amazing! I just wish there was a way that I could have my insurance help with the payment.”
