About Priscilla
Priscilla Barone is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, and relationship struggles. She draws on 16 years of clinical experience to offer steady support during major life changes and ongoing challenges. Her approach is warm and direct, with an emphasis on practical steps people can use between sessions.
Priscilla blends several approaches to match a person's needs.
Background and approach
She uses client-centered work to build trust and listen without judgment. She also draws on cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Mindfulness practices are offered when helpful for calming anxiety or improving focus.
Her background includes long-term outpatient work and roles in residential settings for adolescents. That experience informs how she helps people cope with trauma, dissociation, grief, and complex mood concerns. She also supports those dealing with addiction, sleep and eating struggles, and compassion fatigue.
Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative. Expect a balance of listening, problem-solving, and skill practice. Homework or short exercises are often used to build change in daily life.
Priscilla pays attention to attachment patterns and relational wounds, including issues like abandonment, infidelity, and blended family stress. She applies Jungian ideas when helpful to unpack personal themes and use creative approaches. Her work often includes coaching elements to support career or life transitions.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape present patterns. It looks at trust, closeness, and how people react when they feel hurt, which can help with intimacy, abandonment concerns, and parenting stress. Client-centered therapy centers the person in the room, offering a listening, nonjudgmental space that helps people find their own solutions and feel understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan over time. That way clients can see what helps and focus on strategies that match their everyday life.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when video isn’t needed or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when scheduling a full session is difficult. These options make therapy more flexible for parents, people who commute, or those balancing work and caregiving.
