About Princilla

Princilla Ursery is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Alaska with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and related concerns. Sessions are delivered in English and aimed at people who want clearer thinking and steadier reactions.

Princilla uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice their patterns and try different responses. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address thoughts, behaviors, and emotional regulation. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based approaches are also part of how she helps people sort relationship and intimacy issues.

In a typical session she helps people name what is happening, test small changes, and practice new skills between meetings. That might look like noticing triggers for snapping at a partner, testing a different response at work, or learning ways to calm down before reacting. Sessions balance short-term problem solving and longer-term changes in relationships and self-image.

Her background includes work with people coping with addiction, ADHD, chronic illness, caregiving stress, and complex grief. She also addresses concerns such as commitment and communication problems, codependency, and control issues. Princilla frames her work around clear goals and practical steps rather than vague promises.

People who choose her tend to be looking for straightforward help with behavior, moods, and relationships. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching flow and schedule a first session to see if her style fits.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Princilla uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors, which can reduce reactive patterns like angry outbursts. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and make choices that line up with those values even when emotions feel intense. Attachment-Based Therapy informs work on relationship strain by looking at patterns of closeness, trust, and communication and how those patterns influence anger and intimacy.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Princilla will discuss options, try methods together, and adjust based on what the client notices and what fits their goals. That means a few sessions may focus on skills practice, while others look at underlying relationship patterns or personal values.

The practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy life and options to use different formats depending on needs. The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to keep consistent appointments, try short check-ins when needed, and apply new skills directly into daily routines.
