All therapists provide Telehealth services. Your therapist will assess whether virtual sessions are the right platform for you to achieve your goals.
"Be the Best Version Of You!"
Therapy can feel vulnerable, whether it's the first session or the hundredth. I create a warm and safe environment where clients can feel at ease, focusing on personal growth and working toward becoming the best version of themselves.
I am committed to ensuring each person feels seen, heard, and validated, so that you leave therapy feeling empowered and stronger, equipped with the confidence to advocate for yourself. Together, we’ll navigate your unique road map, embracing the journeys of individuals, couples, and families on this beautiful journey we call life. Passionate about working with people of all backgrounds and relationships, I use a variety of techniques tailored to each person’s individual needs.
We will explore the connections between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to understand how they influence your perceptions and responses. By reframing negative beliefs and thought patterns, we’ll work together to shift how you view your world, your future, and yourself. I will help you develop skills to manage challenging emotions in various situations, empowering you to navigate life with greater resilience, confidence, and self-compassion. Along the way, we’ll also build mindfulness-based coping skills to help you stay present during stressful times, show kindness to yourself, and breathe through those tough moments with greater ease.

Hello!
My name is Priscilla!
Hello, my name is Priscilla Longoria and I am an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC). As a daughter of immigrant parents, I have had to learn to navigate a multitude of systems and overcome the challenges that come with being the first in many settings. Now, as a parent, I continue to learn and evolve, and understand the complexities of adapting to change while also working to maintain a strong sense of self.
My professional journey began as a public school teacher where I learned, first hand, the importance of community, equity, and support. I obtained a Bachelor’s of Arts and a teaching credential from Cal State Dominguez Hills. I also hold a Master’s of Science in Educational Counseling with an emphasis in Individual and Family Counseling, from the University of La Verne. As a mental health professional, I strive to continue my mission to offer individuals and families a safe and supportive space to process, learn and grow.
Culturally Responsive & Compassionate
My approach is culturally responsive, collaborative and compassionate. I cultivate a space where you can feel safe and understood. I draw from a person-centered theoretical framework while engaging clients in mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral practices, and psychoeducation.
I currently serve school-aged children, individuals and families struggling with anxiety, identity development, relational conflict, and grief and loss. We can work together to learn more about your current challenges and your past patterns, then we will build on your strengths to help you move forward. I am privileged to be a part of that journey and look forward to supporting you through life’s challenges and transitions.
