About Priscilla

Priscilla Conkrite is a licensed marriage and family therapist who brings 15 years of clinical experience to work rooted in client-centered care and internal parts work. She blends Internal Family Systems with client-centered and evidence-informed strategies to help people untangle persistent stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles.

Background and approach

Her approach prioritizes listening and collaboration while guiding clients toward greater self-understanding and clearer coping skills. Priscilla creates a welcoming space where clients can explore attachment wounds, abandonment fears, communication breakdowns, and issues such as guilt, shame, or infidelity at a comfortable pace.

She also supports concerns related to panic attacks, social anxiety, loneliness, life purpose, and women’s issues, integrating mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral techniques when helpful. Working from California as an LMFT (CA LMFT 87060), she emphasizes practical tools alongside deeper narrative and psychodynamic exploration to foster increased resilience and connection.

Integrating Parts Work and Skills in Online Therapy

Priscilla uses Internal Family Systems to help clients identify and relate to the different parts of themselves, offering a framework for resolving internal conflicts and reducing shame or self-criticism. Client-centered therapy underpins her work, providing a respectful, nonjudgmental stance that prioritizes the client's perspective and emotional pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy supplies concrete strategies for managing anxiety, panic, and mood shifts by addressing unhelpful thoughts and building coping skills.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to a client's history, current concerns, and goals, then suggest ways of combining parts work, person-centered listening, and cognitive techniques to fit individual needs and preferences. This flexible method allows for depth-oriented exploration alongside practical symptom relief.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to schedule regular sessions and maintain continuity of care from different locations. These options allow clients to engage in therapy in a way that fits their daily life while still accessing licensed professionals who use structured and exploratory approaches.
