About Priscilla
Priscilla Conkrite is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in California. She centers her work on the person in front of her and focuses on practical ways to reduce anxiety and stress. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental, aiming to help people feel understood and move toward clearer choices.
With 15 years of experience, she draws on several approaches to match what a person needs. Sessions often blend client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques that look at thoughts and daily habits.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and narrative tools are used to help people notice patterns and tell kinder stories about themselves. Priscilla often supports people coping with anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, depression, and anger. She also helps with relationship strains, communication problems, separation and divorce issues, and questions around identity for LGBT clients.
Additional concerns she addresses include abandonment, attachment difficulties, guilt, shame, infidelity, jealousy, and feelings of isolation. Her sessions commonly include practical exercises and home practices. That might mean tracking reactions between sessions, trying new communication steps, or practicing brief grounding and mindfulness skills.
The goal is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes. People who choose to work with her can expect a collaborative process. She helps set goals together and adjusts methods to fit each person’s needs and pace.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s pace. It helps people feel heard and start to sort out what they want to change in daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It is useful for anxiety, panic attacks, and negative thinking by adding practical exercises to try between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can help when anger, strong reactions, or self-criticism interfere with daily functioning.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Adjustments are made over time as progress and challenges emerge.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing connection between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
