About Priscilla
Priscilla Williams is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Missouri who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and family conflict. She works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting pressures, and challenges like ADHD and codependency. Priscilla aims to meet clients where they are and support practical change in daily life.
Her sessions focus on strengths and clear goals. She adapts conversation and plans to each person’s needs. Sessions include direct skills practice, problem solving, and attention to feelings and values.
Priscilla draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness. She uses client-centered ways of working that prioritize respect, sensitivity, and compassion while helping people try new behaviors.
Before moving into clinical practice she gained experience across settings and now also serves as a Program Advisor for Women in Leadership at Lindenwood University. That role informs her interest in career concerns and coaching-style support.
People who choose her often want straightforward guidance alongside space to talk. She supports practical steps for coping with life changes, improving communication, and rebuilding after loss or difficult events. The first meeting is focused on listening and shaping a plan that fits each person’s situation.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Priscilla uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps that match their values. ACT often focuses on noticing thoughts and moving toward meaningful action rather than getting stuck in worry or avoidance.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice different behaviors. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete coping skills and thought tools.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Priscilla will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That might mean combining ACT, CBT, mindfulness practices, or client-centered conversation over time.
