**Weekend & Evening Availability Upon Request** Hello, my name is Priscilla McAllister, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). Chances are that you are here because something is not working in your life. Perhaps a toxic relationship, harmful behavior, or unhelpful thinking pattern. Maybe it is low self-esteem or general uncertainty. Are the kids driving you crazy during COVID? Whatever the case, I recognize the courage it takes to ask for help. I hope to meet your courage with relentless support. With over a decade of experience working with parents, adolescents and young adults, I am uniquely aware of cultural intersections that might be part of your struggle, and can help you reframe them as strengths. I have a deep respect for anyone who is seeking to grow, heal, or adapt.
In working collaboratively with you I intend to strengthen your resilience and deepen your self-awareness in a way that can empower you to live the life you want. I aim not only to help you gain clarity about problematic areas of your life, but to help you work through them and thrive thereafter.
I have extensive experience working in grades K-12 as well as college mental health, so I may be an especially good match for students and emerging adults. I appreciate your interest in working with me and welcome any questions you may have.
