About Priscilla

Priscilla Barone is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, sleep problems, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, addiction, and other life challenges. She brings 16 years of experience to sessions and aims to create a warm, accepting space where clients can talk through what feels hard and find realistic next steps.

Her approach mixes practical tools with attention to personal history. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior, attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns, and mindfulness techniques to build calm and focus. Sessions also make room for deeper exploration through Jungian ideas when that fits a person's goals.

Priscilla has worked in community health outpatient clinics and residential settings for adolescents, which shaped her ability to support people navigating strong emotions and life transitions. Her background includes work with trauma, dissociative and anxiety-related concerns, and she has experience addressing issues connected to caregiving, aging, and end-of-life situations.

In a typical session she helps clients set clear aims, tries simple strategies together, and adjusts the plan based on what’s useful. She also offers coaching-style support for career or life-change goals and helps people facing compassion fatigue and parenting strain.

People who value a direct but compassionate style may find her practical focus helpful. To begin, the usual step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time to meet and review goals.

Approaches you might use together online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they relate to others and try different, safer ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's perspective and pace, giving space for people to set their own goals while the therapist reflects and supports the process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns and improve sleep, mood, or anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit a person's needs and goals. This is a collaborative process where plans are adjusted based on what feels most helpful in real life.

Confirm the session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be held. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people use mindfulness exercises or CBT tools in their usual surroundings, which helps practice between meetings. Ask about the available options when you schedule to match timing and session length to your routine.
