I specialize in working with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Tired of worrying and hyper-fixating on things you could have done better? Navigating emotional challenges can be exhausting, with anxiety manifesting in over thinking, perfectionism, and procrastination. You are not alone. Therapy is a chance to press the pause button on life and heal reoccurring patterns standing in your way. Growth happens when you have a warm and compassionate therapist to help work through the hard stuff. I get that, and I place a premium on holding that safe space for you.

Hi, I’m Lily Meller, and I'm a board-certified clinical psychotherapist in CA and MA specializing in teletherapy for individuals experiencing anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and the stress of medical diagnoses. As I work with clients who are anxious or engage in rigid thinking, I strive to grow a capacity for openness, curiosity, calm and joy. I have extensive experience in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which considers the roots of our emotions and how we may engage in patterns that don’t serve us; cognitive-behavioral therapy, which provides tools to use in everyday life; and mindfulness to experience life more fully.

Whether it's relationship issues, difficulty with school/work, or overwhelming feelings that make things feel harder than they should be, I am here to support you.
Life can be challenging for many different reasons, and sometimes it feels like everything is happening at once or things just aren't going how we expected. Being vulnerable is difficult, and so is assessing ourselves honestly and kindly. It's overwhelming to look inward to assess the changes that we can make or the standards that we want to set for ourselves. Sometimes it takes an objective perspective to help us realize our reality as well as our potential.

At times you may find yourself feeling stuck in a repetitive loop, with outcomes that feel undesirable or out of your control. As humans, we are wired to repeat deeply learned patterns that, at a certain point, no longer serve us. Whether it’s in your work life, personal relationships, or your relationship to yourself, you may find yourself asking: “Why does this keep happening? How can I move past this?”

My experience centers on working with adults on presenting issues like mood disorders, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, and anger management.
Spring 2024 - Accepting New Clients! Whether managing short-term or long-term stress, I value making a space for clients to take a moment to stop, step back from what they're doing and take a look from the outside. In a comfortable space with a supportive therapeutic relationship, clients can best understand themselves and disentangle challenges of daily life. I believe in helping clients identify what defines them as an individual, and how to best fulfill the things in life that are important to them. I also value awareness of identities relating to culture, ethnicity, gender and sex, and how they affect clients' values and goals.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
