Hello! I am Priscilla Mathews, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My focus area of practice is to heal people from traumatic life experiences. My approach takes 3 key factors into consideration: mutual trust, respect, and creating a sense of comfort in the working relationship. This is the strongest predictor for a successful outcome irrespective of what approach is used in therapy. I am a certified practitioner of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), an evidence-based approach that helps people heal from disturbing life experiences.

Hi there, It’s no coincidence that you chose or landed on my page. In fact, I believe it was God’s plan for you to stop and review my profile. It takes tremendous inner strength and determination to reach out for support. As I believe everyone deserves to be seen, listened to, and validated, as they are addressing life’s challenges, it's imperative that you find the right therapist to work with as you walk through this life-changing process. I deeply value the therapeutic relationship between a client and therapist.

There are times in life when a little extra help is needed, whether it is due to special circumstances or a lifelong struggle. This can manifest as Depression, Anxiety, Physical illness, a feeling of “stuckness” in life, or an overall sense of dissatisfaction. For those times, therapy can be a wonderful tool. I consider therapy an art, as every individual and every session is different. I attempt to focus treatment on awareness of self, helping you to know yourself, your own wants, needs, and desires, how you envision yourself in the future, and how I can guide you to reach this vision.
