Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte

Dr. Priscilla Sobremonte served in the United States Air Force for 11 years before continuing her path in social work. She earned a Master of Social Work and went on to obtain licensure to practice as a clinical social worker in California (license number 22308).

Early in her clinical career she worked with severely emotionally disturbed children and later served in a county mental health department under an agreement with juvenile justice, providing services to children, adolescents, families, and youth placed in juvenile hall.

She spent many years with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation as a psychiatric clinical social worker, working with both male and female inmates across inpatient, outpatient, and specialized units that serve individuals with chronic, severe mental illness.

Her professional experience also includes work at Kaiser Permanente as a therapist focused on children, families, and crisis intake, and roles within Veterans Health Care where she served as a medical social work supervisor and program coordinator.

Dr. Sobremonte opened a private practice in 2006 and uses a client-centered process to develop treatment plans collaboratively. Her practice draws on cognitive behavioral, trauma-focused, and solution-focused methods, and addresses relationship and family concerns according to each client’s needs and preferences.

Please note that Dr. Sobremonte is not able to write letters to employers for time off or to verify disability.

She is the author of Therapeutic Journaling: Making Sense of My Life, a workbook based on narrative journaling created for clients who have struggled to make sense of life experiences.
