Lily Divino, LCSW

Lily Divino is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults, young adults, and teens who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses concerns such as guilt and shame, family of origin issues, and caregiving stress.

Lily uses evidence-based techniques and a trauma-informed lens in her clinical work. She names Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing among the approaches she draws from, along with strengths-based and relational family systems ideas. Sessions focus on practical steps and on understanding how patterns from relationships and culture shape feelings.

She brings years of experience from healthcare and community settings into each session. That background informs how she thinks about burnout, system stressors, and the social context around mental health. She works with people affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, chronic illness, and other complex stressors.

Lily describes her style as collaborative and attentive to cultural identity and belonging. She helps people talk through what is happening now and how past relationships influence current emotions. Conversations look at coping skills, decision points, and clearer ways to carry heavy feelings.

Practical concerns such as caregiving load, panic attacks, or chronic pain are part of the work she offers. If you want to explore feelings of guilt or shame, she focuses on understanding those emotions and on manageable next steps you can try between sessions.
