About Priscilla
Priscilla Conkrite is a licensed marriage and family therapist who uses a client-centered approach to guide people through anxiety, stress, relationship strain, and related concerns. She communicates plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable. Priscilla works at a steady, patient pace so people can talk through difficult feelings without pressure.
With 15 years of experience in California, Priscilla focuses on a range of problems including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and concerns tied to identity. She also helps with specific worries such as panic disorder and panic attacks, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation. Her background includes work with people navigating divorce, attachment challenges, and the aftermath of infidelity.
Her practice emphasizes listening first. Sessions center on what matters most to the individual, and she helps people identify small, practical steps toward relief. She draws on methods from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to support emotional regulation and clearer thinking.
Priscilla also uses narrative and dialectical strategies to help clients reframe difficult stories and build stronger coping skills. She often blends these ideas to match each person's goals and temperament. The aim is to increase day-to-day functioning and a stronger sense of connection to others.
Priscilla encourages anyone taking the first step to therapy to honor that choice. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions based on mutual availability.
Approaches that translate to online support
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. In practice this means the therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them set goals that feel meaningful. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, emphasizes recognizing unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small experiments to change behavior and reduce anxiety. DBT, dialectical behavior therapy, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will review your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then suggest ways of working that fit your needs. That choice is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand. It can also allow a focus on practicing CBT exercises, mindfulness routines, and DBT skills between meetings to build steady progress.
