Professional statement

Reclaim your peace. Find Relief and Re-connection.

Dr. Prescott works well with individuals struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, self-critical thoughts, relationship stress, and burnout. Her clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves and their community, and like they've lost direction in their own life. Sometimes folks report feeling somatic stress, such as pain and headaches. Trauma-informed, collaborative, and authentic, Dr. Prescott displays a deep commitment to building a secure relationship that is a necessary foundation for healing work. Without judgment, you can explore these difficult topics, learn skills to re-center, and find your unique path forward.

With over 9 years of clinical experience working with teens and adults recovering from trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, and substance, Dr. Prescott has worked in in various settings, including community based clinics, inpatient hospitals, residential programs, and hospitals, including Veterans Affairs Medical Centers. With a special interest in sexual trauma recovery, she completed a Rape Crisis Counselor Certification and later served as the Military Sexual Trauma Coordinator at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center for 2.5 years. This remains a specialty area for Dr. Prescott, who treats trauma by first building safety and trust, while incorporating evidence based practices, such as Eye Movement Desensitization (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT).

Dr. Prescott offers therapy online via a private, secure telehealth video platform. Therapy sessions typically last about 50 minutes and occur weekly or bi-weekly. Both as needed and more intensive therapy options are also available with longer session options and/or increased frequency. Effective therapy might last anywhere from a few sessions to several years. Some specific therapy techniques are a set number of sessions, while others have a more flexible approach. Dr. Prescott offers a free 15-minute phone consultation to discuss your needs and options.


Message to clients

Are feeling overwhelmed and finding there's no time for yourself? Maybe the critical voice in your head is so loud you can't focus? Do you want to feel like you're back in the driver's seat of your own life?

It can feel almost impossible to make changes in your life when you're feeling tied down by circumstances and past experiences. I know firsthand the influence stress and trauma can have on one's life, impacting trust, self-esteem, relationships, feelings of safety, and sense of calm. When we feel disconnected from ourselves, our bodies, and our communities, it's as if things are happening to us in our lives. We lose agency, presence, and purpose.

If you're feeling disconnected, you're not alone. I’m here to help you re-center and re-connect. Addressing the disorientation caused by stress & trauma empowers you to reclaim your peace and re-align with your purpose. I know it's difficult to start therapy and trust a stranger with your most vulnerable thoughts and emotions and I have a lot of respect for your unique needs and agency in your healing journey. While change can be de-stabilizing, it can also be liberating. I hope our work together brings you closer to the truest version of yourself.
