Very helpful and understanding. Works her best to get to know the individual she’s working with so that it is easier to understand their perspective and point of view on the things that they struggle on. Overall and nice person who is willing to help.

Ive been seeing Lilian Gathanga for a few weeks now and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She truly listen and understand my concerns, offering thoughtful and insightful feedback. She regularly checks in, making sure I feel supported between sessions, and always makes an effort to relate to my experiences. Her compassion and dedication have made a significant difference in my journey so far. I feel heard, understood, and genuinely cared for. Highly recommend!
