About me
My name is Priscilla (pronouns she/her/hers/ella), I am a first generation Latina American from Costa Rica. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I attended Lesley University for Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Dance/Movement Therapy. I honor the client’s whole self in treatment, paralleling the nonverbal, holistic approach of Dance/movement therapy. I believe in a collaborative approach, where client and therapist look at the relationship to the self, others, and the environment in efforts of moving towards healing.
I am white, cisgender Latina, my pronouns are she/her/hers/ella. I am an ally to LGBTQIA+ community. My work, regardless of the client’s identity, is gender affirming. I have worked with children and adolescents, and family of their loved ones, for individuals who are in the process of exploring their gender, sexuality and other aspects of the self. I believe psychoeducation is a powerful tool, and with it we can empower the community to align with the basic human rights all are worthy of.
My past work includes school-based therapy, outpatient therapy, residential level of care, and managing an outpatient clinic both through telehealth and in-person. In addition to direct care work, I will be working as an adjunct professor at Lesley University. I primarily work with the Latinx population and am well versed on the multigenerational trauma affecting this population.
