About Josette
Josette Prisk is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people coping with trauma, anxiety, stress, and major life changes. She works with individuals managing low self-esteem, anger, compassion fatigue, and the long-term effects of abuse. Josette writes in plain, direct terms and encourages people to take the first step toward change.
Josette draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and attachment-based ideas to help people understand strong feelings and relationship patterns. She combines those perspectives with client-centered listening and practical skills from cognitive behavioral approaches.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on identifying triggers, naming emotions, and practicing new ways to handle painful reactions. Her practice reflects 12 years of experience across Kentucky and North Carolina, and she holds the Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential. That background informs a steady, empathetic approach that centers the client’s goals.
Josette aims to create a calm space where difficult memories and present struggles can be talked through without judgment. She uses straightforward techniques for coping with panic, mood shifts, and overwhelming stress. Clients can expect guidance on building emotion regulation skills and on changing unhelpful thinking patterns.
Josette also pays attention to how past attachment wounds shape current relationships and behavior. Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person. Josette helps people set practical steps for daily life while attending to deeper emotional healing.
Her style is warm, direct, and focused on making change feel doable.

Online support
Emotion-focused and attachment work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify, name, and process strong emotions to change how they respond in relationships and to personal pain. It is often used for healing from trauma, intense grief, and deep anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they influence current behavior and trust. It helps people recognize repeating patterns and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more connected.Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and daily life, then recommend methods to try. This collaborative process makes it easier to adjust the plan as needs evolve and to blend emotion-focused exploration with skill-based techniques when useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different schedules and needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and emotion-focused work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a shorter check-in. Live chat and texting allow ongoing support, brief updates, or between-session coaching without a full session. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, family life, and other commitments while maintaining regular contact with a licensed professional.
