About Priscilla
Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 24 years of clinical experience. She helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, anger, and other life changes.
She spent 11 years in the United States Air Force before completing a Master of Social Work. Early in her career she worked with severely emotionally disturbed children and with county mental health programs tied to juvenile justice. That work included supporting adolescents placed in juvenile hall and coordinating care across systems.
Priscilla later practiced in the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation as a psychiatric clinical social worker. There she provided care in inpatient, outpatient, and specialized units for people with chronic severe mental illness. Her background also includes therapist roles at Kaiser Permanente, crisis intake work, and supervisory positions within Veterans Health Care program coordination.
She opened a private practice in 2006 and uses a client-centered process to build treatment plans. That means the therapist and the person in care decide together which methods to use, drawing from cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, existential thinking, narrative journaling, and trauma-focused options when they fit.
She has written a therapeutic journaling resource called Therapeutic Journaling: Making Sense of My Life, based on narrative journaling techniques for people trying to make sense of difficult experiences. Note that she does not provide letters for employer time off or disability verification.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and perspective. The therapist listens and helps the client shape the plan, which is useful for anger that comes from relationships, work stress, or parenting strains.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to manage reactions. It can be helpful when anger shows up as quick temper, ongoing resentment, or workplace frustration.
Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to present-moment experience and bodily cues. Learning to notice physical tension and early signs of anger can create space for different responses during conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and then collaborate on which methods to try. That choice can shift over time as progress and challenges become clearer.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, because the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they work with your daily routine.
