About Pamela
Pamela Shultz is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and major life changes. Pamela draws on her background as a Navy veteran and a parent to understand stretched schedules and shifting roles.
Pamela helps people spot patterns that keep them stuck and builds small, practical steps to change them. She uses clear skills for managing strong feelings and strategies for handling cravings or urges related to substance use. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what can be done differently this week.
Her approach combines client-centered listening with hands-on techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. She also uses mindfulness practices and questions about meaning and choices from existential work. Those methods are used to help people find steadier routines and regain a sense of control.
Pamela supports work on relationship communication, commitment worries, and common parenting stresses. She also addresses issues linked to adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and other life disruptions. The goal is clearer decisions and more reliable coping skills.
Clients are invited to set concrete goals and try specific tools between sessions. Pamela emphasizes practical progress over long explanations, with short-term plans that can be revisited and adjusted as life changes.
How Pamela’s approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client leads the conversation and sets priorities; online sessions let that dialogue continue in a convenient setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses clear, stepwise exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, such as exposure practice for social worries or tracking reactions to stress. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings and find personal reasons to change, which can be useful when addressing substance use or commitment concerns.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Pamela will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That means trying tools, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people use techniques at home between appointments and bring real-life examples into conversation.
