Pam
Introduction
I offer a safe and compassionate space for you to be heard, seen, and supported — wherever you are in your journey.
Clients often describe me as calm, genuine, and easy to talk to. I believe healing happens in relationship, and I walk alongside you — not as someone with all the answers, but as someone who listens deeply, honours your story, and supports your next steps.
Whether you're navigating grief, trauma, relationships, anxiety, life transitions, or feeling stuck - my goal is to help you feel empowered, grounded, and connected to yourself.
I come to this work from my own healing journey. Life has taken me through grief, cancer, and adoption, and these experiences continue to shape the way I understand and walk alongside others. They’ve taught me the value of compassion, honesty, and hope, and I bring that into the counselling space so you can feel supported and not alone in your own journey.
Counselling can be a place where change begins — gently, honestly, and at your pace. You don’t have to do it alone.

Online therapy
Online therapy can be just as effective as in-person work, and I aim to create a safe, supportive environment where you can feel heard and understood.
I offer online therapy sessions using the secure, HIPAA-compliant platform Doxy.me, which allows us to connect easily via video from the comfort and privacy of our own spaces.
You don’t need to download any software, I’ll send you a link before each session.

Specialisations
I offer an initial session to see if we’re a good therapeutic match — this is an important part of building a safe and trusting relationship.
Some clients come for short-term support (2–3 sessions), while others may choose longer-term therapy. We’ll review how things are going as we work together, so the pace and length can adapt to your needs.
Sessions can be weekly, fortnightly, or monthly depending on what feels right for you.
