Lilia is great at helping me identify what the triggers are to my problems and how to cope with them.

Lilia is a great listener. I always feel like i have the floor with her. This also means that when she does speak, it's always completely relevant and feels tuned in to what my needs are. The first person i have really been able to connect with and be myself.

Lilia is a professional therapist with enormous compassion and understanding in the sessions. I feel so lucky to have her as my therapist. I was in a really dark place and felt completely stuck in every aspect of my life. Lilia is such a great listener that she never judges me for what I said. She has always been supportive and warm. She would also respect my own pace and never pushes me to make any decisions. But the wonderful thing is that dshe would challenge my stubborn self-critism and help me see the power in myself. I couldn't ask for a better therapist. I completely trust her and I am so grateful that she is the one that I go on this self-exploring journey with.

Lilia has a calm, understanding and compassionate manner, and always brings a fresh perspective to the things we discuss. She also has a practical approach, and beyond just listening, is able to offer concrete actions and solutions that have been really helpful to me along the way

Lilia is great, she often understands my problems better than me and guides me through her questions. She's helped me a lot with figuring out my emotions for myself and making sense of the situations I've had. I'm very happy and would definitely recommend Lilia!

My sessions with Lilia have been very helpful. It is clear from the way she listens, responds and offers extra resources, that she has a wealth of experience. I have learnt some important things about myself that will help me in my healing journey.

Lilia is an amazing therapist who allows you space to talk and share your feelings whilst always listening attentively and offering relevant suggestions to help you. She has an incredibly calming aura about her and I immediately felt comfortable sharing my issues with her. Oftentimes I would spend the sessions pouring my heart out and couldn't stop! But Lilia always had something helpful to say and a fresh perspective that I hadn't necessarily thought of. You sense that she really cares about you and what you are saying. I'd highly recommend her to anybody and it's a shame our sessions have to come to an end! Thank you for everything!

Very helpful and supportive. Our therapy sessions reinstated my innate personality. I felt like I had lost many parts of myself.

Lilia is so easy to talk to, she seems very warm and understanding, and listens intently. I instantly felt comfortable enough to speak my mind, and have felt supported every step of the way.
Lilia is very polite, and also isn’t afraid to smile, which in my experience from the past, doesn’t seem to always be the case (these experiences were outside of Betterhelp). And sometimes, a comforting smile can be great therapy! :)

Lilia is so kind and comforting. Somehow with her help, I can verbalize things that I have never said out loud before. I can finally acknowledge my emotions, know that they are legitimate, and start to heal. Thank you so much, Lilia

Lilia is genuinely interested in my well-being and goes beyond any expectation in terms of care, kindness and support. Our sessions have been productive from the very start and, with her help, I was able to implement new behaviours significantly improving my life.

My therapist Lilia Sykes is very attentive, she takes time to read my usually extremely long messages and responds to them in a timely manner as well as is able to provide me with some good exercises for anxiety. She is compassionate and understanding of my primary problem. She has helped me calmed my nerves many times and talking to her gives me a peace of mind that I need at times.
