About Priscilla

Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte uses a client-centered approach to shape each person's care. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 24 years of experience.

Her style is direct and practical, and she helps people manage anger alongside stress, anxiety, depression, and grief. She began her career after serving 11 years in the United States Air Force. After earning a Master of Social Work she worked with severely emotionally disturbed children and then in county mental health tied to juvenile justice.

Background and approach

Those early roles involved intake, crisis work, and hands-on support for young people in difficult circumstances. Later she served in the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation as a psychiatric clinical social worker. There she worked with inpatient and outpatient populations, special units for chronic severe mental illness, and both male and female inmates.

She also held clinical roles at Kaiser Permanente and in Veterans Health Care administration. Dr. Sobremonte moved into independent practice in 2006.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, existential ideas, and narrative techniques when they fit the person’s goals. Treatment plans are developed together, one step at a time. She has written a therapeutic journaling guide called Therapeutic Journaling: Making Sense of My Life, which uses narrative journaling to help people process experiences.

She notes she is not able to provide letters to employers for time off or disability verification. Sessions are offered in English from California and international clients are accepted. Her work often focuses on parenting, family stress, addictions, trauma, sleep problems, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

Approaches for online work and practical tools

Client-Centered Therapy means the person sets goals and the therapist listens closely, then they shape the plan together. This style supports exploring anger, relationship stress, parenting strain, and personal values in a straightforward way.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, depression, anger management, and sleep difficulties because it offers clear steps and homework to practice between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional control. These techniques pair well with CBT and help with stress, grief, and compulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on the person's goals, preferences, and progress. That collaboration helps shape a plan that feels manageable and relevant.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging helps maintain contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and continue care when travel or relocation occurs.
