Liliana Palacios
Hi! I’m Liliana Palacios For the past 19 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping people from all walks of life navigate challenges, celebrate victories, and discover their inner strength. I was born and raised in Mexico City, where I earned my BS in Organizational Psychology before moving to the U.S. as a young mother. While raising my two daughters, I pursued my MA in Professional Counseling and volunteered for several years with a local mental health agency and crisis line. Over the years, I’ve worked with survivors of domestic violence, childhood sexual abuse, and individuals facing depression, anxiety, marital conflict, parenting challenges, and adolescent behavioral issues. I have led domestic violence support groups for Hispanic women and parenting classes in Spanish, always to create a safe, understanding space. For the past 15 years, I’ve focused on supporting parents of children on the autism spectrum and guiding caregivers of elderly or ill loved ones through every stage of care and end-of-life concerns. I’m a Nationally Certified Counselor, Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist, and Certified Mindfulness-Informed Professional, with extensive training in grief counseling. While credentials matter, I believe the heart of therapy is connection. I bring warmth, honesty, and encouragement to my work—celebrating your progress, but also telling you the truth when something might cause harm. Therapy is about self-discovery, resilience, and learning to live fully and joyfully, both for yourself and those you love. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey to where you want—and deserve—to be. **“It’s not the load that breaks you down. It’s how you carry it.” — Lena Thorne** In good health, Liliana

Carolyn "Kari" Homan Shannon
Hello, and welcome. I am primarily an emotional release therapist, but have training in CBT / DBT / EFT and other modalities... I have worked in the mental health field for over 17 years. I have worked with a wide range of clients, from ADHD to OCD to just about everything in between, but my favorite populations are hoarders, those with depression, and people who have suffered serious trauma, such as first responders, or victims of trauma. My favorite technique to use is one that combines the CLIENT'S FAITH BASE (belief in a higher power, prayer), with some ENERGY WORK. It is effective and quick, and most of the people I've worked with have seen resolution within 1-3 sessions. Please bear in mind, that you may need longer than that, based on your trauma and duration, but as this is so quick and effective, It's my preferred method for getting you up and out of the trenches so that you can start living your life from a healthier and more healed point of view. Once your "stuck" points are worked out, then we can continue therapy from a more educational standpoint, where you'll learn techniques, strategies and skills. Welcome.... I'm glad you're here.... Let's get started....

You did it - you took the first step toward a more enriched life. Yes, therapy can be scary, but so can continuing to exist day to day without fulfillment, fire, or clarity. No, we don't have to analyze your childhood for years in order for progress and steps forward to take place. What I will offer is a collaborative approach and meet you exactly where you are. Are you struggling making connections? Having trouble getting over a break up? Do you constantly compare yourself to others? Let's do something about it. No more staying "stuck." Shake up habitual ways of thinking to something more meaningful. I specialize working with anxiety, relationship issues, depression, and stress management. I want my clients to leave with a sense of empowerment and gain perception on how to live a different and more satisfying life. So let's stop letting another day pass by existing but not really living and strive toward some positive and lasting changes!
