About Dr. Lily Warner
Dr. Lily Warner; Psy.D., MPS; Founder, Licensed Psychologist
Welcome! Life can be challenging! As a human, I can relate, and as a professional, I'm here to help.
On a professional note,
with 16+ years of clinical experience: Doctorate in Psychology, Master’s in Art Therapy, advanced postgraduate training; clinical research coordination at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, inpatient psychiatry at Montefiore; supervision of 20+ clinicians/interns; and presenting internationally, rest assured that you’re in good hands.
On a personal note,
I’m a native New Yorker intimately familiar with the pressures of the private school system who broke free from the concrete jungle to to explore new cultures and lands (from Colorado to Australia to France and more!) before returning back to NYC to pursue a career in the mental health field. Always interested in people, I shifted from the fine arts to the healing arts to scientific inquiry and now I bring the best of what I’ve learned to you.
You shouldn’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Now you don’t have to.
I am an expert in the mental health field; you are the expert on you. Together, we can change your life from the inside out.
