About Lily
Lily Divino is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or big life changes. Lily pays attention to what matters most to each person and aims to make appointments feel steady and doable.
She uses a warm, collaborative style and starts where the person is. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside moments to reflect on what led to the current struggle. Lily draws on trauma-informed care and evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address things like panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and burnout.
Her background includes work in healthcare and community settings, so she notices how systems, work, and caregiving affect emotional health. That perspective shapes how she approaches issues like compassion fatigue, chronic illness, or caregiver stress. She also supports people coping with family of origin concerns, guilt, shame, and recovery after sexual assault.
Lily brings a culturally responsive lens to conversations about identity and belonging. She uses motivational interviewing and a strengths-based stance to help people identify what matters and build on existing resources. When relational patterns are relevant, she incorporates family systems ideas to map how relationships influence current difficulties.
In sessions she focuses on practical skills and clearer thinking, while also attending to emotions and personal history. If someone wants a steady partner to organize the next steps and reduce panic or anxiety symptoms, Lily offers a paced, respectful approach to that work.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Lily describes her work as collaborative and grounded in evidence-based techniques that help people manage symptoms and make practical changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify goals and find their own motivation to try new coping strategies and routines.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and what feels manageable, then try methods that fit the person’s pace and preferences. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.
