About Priscilla

Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who brings 24 years of clinical experience to therapy. She uses a client-centered approach to help people sort through stress, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and parenting challenges. Her background includes work in medical and correctional settings as well as community mental health and private practice.

She spent 11 years in the United States Air Force before earning her Master of Social Work and becoming an LCSW. Early in her clinical career she worked with severely emotionally disturbed children and with juvenile justice systems. Later roles included psychiatric social work in state correctional facilities, crisis intake at an integrated health system, and leadership positions in veterans’ health care.

Since opening a private practice in 2006 she has focused on shaping treatment with each person’s needs and preferences in mind. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, existential ideas, and narrative techniques to build practical plans for daily life. She also offers therapeutic journaling resources she developed for clients who want to process their past and present experiences.

Dr. Sobremonte works with concerns ranging from addiction and bipolar disorder to caregiver stress, chronic illness, and sleep difficulties. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, aiming to find steps people can try between sessions. She notes she is not able to provide letters to employers for time off or disability verification.

Located in California, she offers services in English and accepts international clients. Prospective clients are invited to use the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and tailoring sessions to what matters most to the person. It aims to build understanding and set goals that feel realistic for daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the issues at hand. That may mean trying a focused CBT skill one week and a mindfulness practice the next to see what helps most.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports using journaling exercises, worksheets, and mindfulness practices between sessions so change can happen outside the appointment time.
