About Priscilla

Priscilla Conkrite is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. She draws on a client-centered approach that aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters most. Priscilla emphasizes pacing sessions to each person's comfort and supporting steps toward greater connection and well-being.

With 15 years of professional experience, she has worked with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship concerns. She also supports those navigating issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, communication problems, infidelity, and divorce or separation. Her work includes attention to LGBT concerns, women's issues, and social anxiety or panic symptoms.

Priscilla integrates practical strategies alongside reflective conversation. She may use methods from cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge unhelpful thinking and from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Mindfulness and narrative approaches are also part of her toolkit for helping people notice patterns and rewrite difficult stories about themselves.

In sessions she focuses on listening first, then helping people set achievable goals. She often guides skills practice and small behavior changes between meetings. Her style is straightforward and hopeful, aimed at restoring everyday functioning and stronger relationships.

How these approaches transfer to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on respectful listening and helping each person set their own goals; online sessions keep that same emphasis on pacing and the client’s priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to shift patterns, which can be taught and practiced in remote sessions. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, with concrete tools that translate well to weekly conversations and between-session practice.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. This means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during a lunch break or between errands. It also supports repeating exercises at home and practicing new skills in real situations without changing the collaborative, goal-focused nature of the work.
