Evidence-based methods and online care
Pamela uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. These methods help people practice new responses to stressful social situations and everyday worries.Motivational interviewing techniques are also part of her approach. This involves clear, respectful conversation to explore a person’s goals and what might get in the way of change. It can be useful for making decisions about parenting, health behaviors, or caregiving responsibilities.
Finding the right method is a collaborative process. Pamela will discuss goals, preferences, and practical constraints and suggest ways to test what works best. She adapts the approach over time based on what is helpful for the client.
