Hi there, I'm Priscila!

I am trained in EMDR and IFS practices, bringing a trauma-informed perspective to my work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, and past experiences that continue to affect their present.

My focus

I have worked extensively with children in child play, as well as working with adults of all ages recovering from addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

My approach

I have a philosophical and humanistic approach to my sessions, which means I take in all aspects of the whole person and what they are going through. My training emphasized that we do not live in a vacuum and we are made up of a sum of parts. I am also trauma-informed, so I link many symptoms, such as anxiety, as part of a traumatic experience.
