About Princilla

Princilla Ursery is a licensed professional counselor who provides practical support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life changes. She frames sessions around what matters most to each person. Conversations are straightforward and focused on small, usable steps a client can try between meetings.

Princilla draws on nine years of clinical experience in Alaska. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and attachment-based work to help people manage difficult feelings and improve patterns that cause repeated pain.

Background and approach

Sessions often include skill-building for coping, communication practice, and gentle reflection on values and goals. People who come for help with sleep struggles, parenting pressures, compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, or questions about intimacy can expect a calm, direct approach. She also addresses issues like ADHD, bipolar disorder, chronic illness, and complicated grief without assuming a single solution fits everyone.

Her style mixes practical exercises with a focus on relationships and meaning. That can mean learning new ways to react in heated moments, making plans for better sleep, or talking through painful past events in a paced way. Progress is measured in clearer choices and small improvements that add up.

Princilla holds an LPC credential and practices in Alaska. She conducts sessions in English and offers multiple online formats to match different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, practical steps toward those values while learning to live with painful thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replaces them with more effective skills and routines; it often helps with anxiety, sleep difficulties, mood concerns, and daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relational patterns shape current connections and communication, which can help when relationship patterns, abandonment concerns, or communication problems cause ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Princilla treats the choice as collaborative and may combine methods based on a person’s goals, history, and preferences. Early sessions typically focus on what feels most urgent and what skills a person wants to build first.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Those options allow people to meet from home, fit sessions into busy schedules, and use shorter check-ins between longer appointments. The mix of approaches and formats aims to make care practical and easier to use for people living and working across Alaska.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
