About Pricilla

Pricilla Finn is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, family conflict, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, eating concerns and anger. She also supports those facing career change and coping with life transitions, and she offers sessions in English and Portuguese.

Her approach is conversational and practical. She shapes sessions around what matters most to the client and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address problems. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, developing new coping skills, and testing small changes that can make daily life more manageable.

Pricilla pays particular attention to attachment and abandonment concerns, and to issues that can follow family-of-origin wounds. She helps people who struggle with codependency, control issues, commitment worries, and avoidant personality patterns. She also works with those affected by domestic violence, divorce and separation, and blended family stress.

When trauma or dissociation are present, she aims to move at a pace the person can manage and to reduce overwhelming feelings through steady, practical steps. For people dealing with addictions or relapse, sessions explore triggers, supports, and realistic coping plans rather than quick fixes.

International clients may be supported and the subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the online booking flow.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and understanding patterns that keep difficult feelings active. Cognitive and behavioural strategies help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and address low mood. Attachment-informed work looks at relationship patterns and abandonment concerns, helping people recognise how past relationships shape present reactions and build new ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. Together they will decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed in future sessions, keeping the plan collaborative rather than fixed.

The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, such as taking a shorter check-in during a lunch break or meeting without needing travel time. It can also allow a person to choose a quieter setting or to use audio-only if that better suits their focus or bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals often find these practical arrangements help clients maintain regular contact and apply what they practice between sessions.
