Pamela is a wonderful therapist. She is kind, compassionate and patient, but she is also straight-forward and real. She approaches your personal problems with empathy and respect and makes you feel safe, which I think is the most important part of the therapeutic relationship. You want to have confidence and faith in knowing that your therapist does not judge you and that she/he truly cares about your experience, and Pamela does just that. I could not recommend her more.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
