Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte, LCSW

Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addiction, grief, parenting strain, anger, and related problems. Her background includes public sector, hospital, and private practice roles.

She spent 11 years in the United States Air Force before completing a Master of Social Work. Early in her career she worked with severely emotionally disturbed children and with youth involved in juvenile justice. Later roles included psychiatric social work in the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and clinical work at Kaiser Permanente focusing on children, families, and crisis intake.

She also has experience in Veterans Health Care as a medical social work supervisor and program coordinator. In private practice since 2006, she uses a client-centered process to build treatment plans together with clients. That means she and the client choose approaches that fit the presenting concerns and day-to-day life.

Her therapeutic methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, existential and narrative approaches. She has created a therapeutic journaling resource called Therapeutic Journaling: Making Sense of My Life, based on narrative journaling techniques used with clients who need structure for processing experiences.

She notes she is not able to provide letters to employers for time off or disability verification. Prospective clients who want to address anger, coping with life changes, ADHD, or caregiving stress often find practical strategies and conversational problem solving in sessions.
