Hello, and welcome.
My name is Pam and I am registered qualified counsellor with experience supporting individuals and couples through anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, childhood trauma, emotional regulation, self-esteem, grief, and life transitions.
My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I provide a safe, non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and supported while we work together to understand the challenges you're facing and develop practical strategies for lasting change. I draw on evidence-based approaches and tailor therapy to your unique needs and goals.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking to better understand yourself, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
I look forward to working with you.
Warm regards
Pam

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
