Too often psychotherapy focuses on causality, pathology and cures. However, rather than being "sick" or 'broken", often we are just lost inside ourselves or relationships. Everyone is a unique person with their own story, experience and perspective. The goal of therapy is to achieve a deeper awareness of where we are, to discover internal meaning for our many experiences, and to experience a life worth living. While working towards that awareness, I also feel it important to teach individuals, couples and families the skills needed to cope with the pain and day to day stressors that bring them into therapy.

Castro-Upper Market, San Francisco, CA 94114
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.

Each moment in life offers us the chance to become the fullest expression of who we really are. In therapy I help to hold a space where we can explore anything that might be keeping you from that fullest expression. This might mean finding a deeper connection between your mind and body. It might mean getting a new perspective on some of the stories you have been telling yourself. It might mean consciously having a different experience here than you have had in other situations in life.

Suffering is a certainty in our lives, but sometimes it becomes more than we can bear. Oftentimes, we can become caught up in blaming ourselves- and though sometimes there can be truth to the notion, it's not true enough to guide us towards healing. We may feel slowed down, stuck, agitated, angry, frustrated or sad. There is nothing wrong or unacceptable with you or your feelings in my practice. They are part of your truth that will guide you to a deeper level of knowing.

Within each human being is a Soul, a self-evident energetic force, the Gift of Life, with a natural propensity for flourishing and for suffering. Counseling is guidance through courageous and honest evaluation of life experiences. Life is hard, and determining which actions, habits, skills and strategies are effective in dealing with adversity is essential for developing mental fitness and establishing contentment. Integrating suffering into overall thriving, not merely coping, means ongoing adjustment to life's challenges as in divorce, loss of loved ones, financial hardship, unemployment, and returning from military deployment.

Perhaps you reached the top of the mountain only to ask, now what? An adamant voice says there is no life worth leading unless you are exceptional. Or you manage things on the surface seamlessly only to feel overwhelmed behind closed doors. It would make so much sense. Our environment has demanded more in recent times—be more, do more, have more—all at once. It is not by chance we exist in the age of superheroes and social media. There are bigger shoes for us and our children to grow into yet not enough room to play or tend to the inner person. Perhaps we learned ways to survive that no longer serve us.

Life can be messy and the struggle can leave us in a place where it is hard to breath, feel safe, trust, relax, and generally enjoy life. At the root of this is the longing for safe loving relationships. For 35 years my life’s work has been helping people make sense of their emotions in order to enjoy their relationships. Relationships can energize us; they can infuse us with hope, enjoyment, and a sense of purpose and meaning. Healing means sleeping well, being less reactive, feeling the good stuff again, and enjoying our relationships.
