About Priscilla

Priscilla McLemore provides thoughtful, evidence-informed therapy for people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, mood concerns, and life transitions. She centers the client's experience and helps translate painful or confusing moments into clearer goals and practical strategies.

Background and approach

Her work emphasizes building coping skills, reducing symptoms that interfere with daily life, and strengthening self-understanding so clients can move forward with more confidence. Her training includes a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a Master’s in Counseling from the University of Texas San Antonio, plus an MBA from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

Priscilla brings 11 years of clinical experience and holds an LPC credential (TX LPC 71273). She blends client-centered listening with evidence-based tools to tailor a plan that fits each person’s situation.

Priscilla often draws on trauma-informed perspectives and approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT skills, and mindfulness to address complex reactions to loss, relationship patterns, addiction concerns, and living with ADHD. She frames therapy as a collaborative process that offers compassion, practical education, and a chance to reclaim strengths after difficult life events.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care



Priscilla integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy by helping clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice concrete behavioral changes; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday stressors. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, offering empathic listening and validation so clients can explore feelings and values at their own pace. When emotional regulation or interpersonal patterns are central, she draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach practical tools for managing intense emotions and improving communication.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then recommend or combine approaches that best fit the situation. This helps ensure treatment feels meaningful and aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from Texas and beyond, maintain continuity during life changes, and practice new skills in real time between sessions.
