Aetna Therapists in Los Angeles, CA
I offer warm, socially informed, and collaborative therapeutic care, with an emphasis on treating depression, shame and self-esteem issues, and patterns of relational instability. While always fundamentally compassionate, my practice does not shy away from confronting beliefs, behaviors, and patterns that create unnecessary suffering. With clinical training from the L.A. LGBT Center and over a decade as a high school teacher, I have specific experience with the challenges faced by adolescents, young adults, and members of the LGBTQ+ community, but in the end I’m eager to work with anyone who feels I could be a match for their needs.

My name is Priscilla Willmott and I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I approach mental health issues like depression and anxiety as a natural consequence of our environment and the inability to be accepted as our true selves in the contexts we live in. I use experiential therapy, which is a process-oriented perspective that aims to restore and recover the parts of our authenticity that were detached as a result of our environments.

I am warm, collaborative, practical, and supportive. My practice is trauma-informed, client-centered, solution-focused, and incorporates a cognitive-behavioral approach. I build on client strengths, use thought-provoking questions to directly challenge negative or destructive thoughts, and focus on helping people find the clarity, meaning, or insight they need to move forward in life.

Above all, I love my work as a psychologist. This profession allows me to act as both scientist and artist, and I take joy from watching people evolve in their lives. Blending science & art, therapy is a unique process where we talk over events of your life, some in the distant past, and some happening currently.

While I treat a variety of conditions and concerns, I have specialized training in both perinatal mental health and trauma. I like to describe my therapeutic style as human first. I believe it's helpful to provide a space for authenticity and honesty in sessions to promote long-lasting healing and positive change. I pull from a psychodynamic lens, mindfulness practice, cognitive-based approaches, and polyvagal theory. The type of interventions that I use in the therapy room depends on the specific presenting issue(s), the client's goals, what has and hasn't worked in past therapy, and the client's desire.

It can be difficult to open up to a stranger about personal difficulties, but I truly believe in each person’s ability to make positive changes. This is why I strive to create a calm, warm, welcoming, and open environment where you can feel comfortable working through your thoughts and emotions. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I provide individual counseling services, ADHD and learning disability evaluations, and performance psychology services for athletes and performers.

I have been doing psychotherapy full time for over 3 decades, so I am a seasoned therapist. My first training was Cognitive-Behavioral, and it remains foundational to how I work with clients, but with experience I have incorporated parts of many other approaches, so "eclectic" is a label that also fits. I believe that education is important early in the therapy process, helping clients identify "what problem(s) are my symptoms trying to solve?"
