About Our Practice
Welcome!
We’re Kristen Malora, Psy.D., and Emily Freedman, LCSW, friends and moms who wanted to create a close-knit, private therapy practice where people receive the individualized care and attention they deserve.
So, in 2021, we founded Lilac Therapy Center where safety and understanding are prioritized and clients enjoy a reassuring, attentive therapeutic atmosphere.
Rooted in intention, our boutique approach to therapy is centered around personalization and creating a comprehensive care experience. Through compassion and collaboration, we help people nurture healthy relationships with themselves and others.
Our seasoned, licensed clinicians specialize in individual, couples, LGBTQIA+ support, and family and trauma therapy— connecting with and supporting children, teens, and adults in a thoughtful, mindful, purposeful fashion.
Ensuring the Right Fit
During your first call, you will speak directly with one of us, so we can ensure you’re matched with the therapist who’s right for you. Our goal is to help and for you to feel heard and taken care of.
With a depth of expertise, our therapists tailor therapy sessions that resonate with and meet your unique needs to foster a collaborative and empowering approach to your healing.
Additionally, our therapists work with a select number of clients to ensure they have enough time, energy, and attention for each person with whom they’re supporting. We want the level of care that you receive at our practice to exceed that of a traditional therapy experience.
As such, through our online system for paperwork, automatic billing, text appointment reminders, and options for telehealth or in-person sessions, we’ve streamlined as many of the stressful parts of the therapy process as possible, so you can focus on you and/or your loved one feeling better.
At Lilac Therapy Center, we are ready to support reluctant first-timers who are seeking therapy after some procrastination; people who have tried therapy before, but haven’t found what they are looking for; and those who have done a lot of work to understand themselves and are looking to level-up their therapeutic experience
