About Josette
Josette Prisk is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing trauma, anxiety, stress, and difficult life changes. She speaks plainly and offers steady support when problems feel overwhelming. Josette focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life more manageable and less isolating.
With 12 years of experience, Josette draws on several therapy approaches to fit each person's needs. She uses attachment-based methods to look at how relationships affect current struggles.
Background and approach
She also relies on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Josette often works with people coping with effects of abuse, mood disorders, panic, and personality-related challenges. She also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, anger, impulsivity, and feelings of guilt or shame.
Her approach is direct but warm, aiming to build trust and clear goals together. Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings. That can mean learning tools to manage intense emotions, trying small behavior changes, or practicing new ways of relating to others.
Josette keeps language simple and concrete so parents and busy adults can apply ideas right away. She is licensed in Kentucky and North Carolina and conducts sessions in English. Josette emphasizes collaboration: she and the client set the pace and pick methods that feel right.
The goal is steady progress toward more calm, clearer thinking, and stronger coping in daily life.

Online support
How her approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions use conversation and exercises to notice patterns in relationships and try new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing small behaviors. In online meetings CBT tools might include guided thought records, behavioral experiments, and homework to practice between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, symptoms, and daily routines, then suggest strategies that fit your needs. That decision is made collaboratively so methods match your pace and what you want to change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video helps when visual cues and face-to-face conversation matter. Phone can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick updates, ongoing check-ins, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
