Princilla Ursery , LPC

Princilla Ursery is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Alaska who focuses on guiding people through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. She prioritizes learning each person's distinct story and brings a compassionate, person-centered approach to concerns such as stress, relationship dynamics, family conflict, and trauma recovery.

Her work extends to communication problems, feelings of isolation, exploration of life purpose, and broader emotional healing. Princilla integrates evidence-based methods to help clients build resilience and find clearer direction amid workplace pressures, relationship shifts, or the search for deeper self-understanding.

Throughout her practice she honors the intersections of cultural identity and individual experience, maintaining sensitivity to how background and context shape growth. Her therapeutic stance emphasizes respect, cultural awareness, and a belief in each person's ability to heal and change. Princilla welcomes individuals seeking affirming, professional support and walks alongside them with empathy and practical guidance.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Princilla draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values and learn practical ways to live in alignment with those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. ACT often supports people working with stress, anxiety, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful action rather than symptom elimination.

She also incorporates Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relational patterns shape current relationships and emotional responses. This approach can be useful for addressing intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and recurring conflict in close relationships.

Princilla uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT offers concrete tools for managing mood, easing anxiety, and improving coping strategies in day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Princilla works with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses to ensure the work remains relevant and effective.

Online sessions - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. These options make it possible to receive ongoing therapeutic support from licensed professionals without needing to be in the same location, which can help people stay connected to care during transitions or when in-person visits are not convenient.
