Lily Marcus, LMSW in NY, LCSW in MA

Psychotherapist

She/her
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, and Lily believes that healing begins with feeling genuinely seen, understood, and accepted. She strives to create a space where clients can show up as they are, without judgement or pressure to have everything figured out. Her therapeutic relationships are rooted in authenticity, warmth, curiosity, and a little bit of humor. She strives to balance compassion with gentle challenge to help clients move toward meaningful change. 

Lily has experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in both school-based and outpatient settings. She has supported clients navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, relationship concerns, trauma, self-esteem, emotional regulation, and major life transitions. She recognizes that every person's experience is shaped by the larger systems and relationships around them and works collaboratively with clients to better understand their patterns, build on their strengths, and create lasting change. 

Lily is particularly passionate about working with young adults, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and individuals exploring polyamorous, ENM, and other nontraditional relationship structures. She is committed to providing an affirming, culturally responsive space where clients can explore their identities and relationships with openness and self-compassion. 

Her approach is trauma-informed, strengths-based, and relational, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, mindfulness-based practices, and psychodynamic principles. Lily tailors therapy to each individual's needs, helping clients deepen self-understanding, strengthen coping skills, and build lives that feel more connected, intentional, and authentic.
