Pamela Lane

My history includes having extensive experience working with a myriad of mental health and behavioral challenges in, adult, and special needs populations. As such, I have counseled closely with many individuals that suffer from Major Depressive Disorder, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, and many other personality, behavioral and relationship challenges and life transitions.

I am happy to make myself available to help answer your questions and advise you of some ways of handling the challenges in your life or in understanding those around you. I can guide and advise you as to what coping skills and strategies may help regarding your thoughts, feelings, or behaviors, in order for you to reach your goals or manage your everyday world.

I describe my counseling style as “Talk Therapy” with an easy to talk to presence. I believe that the connection of the way we “think” and “perceive” situations can be changed through rational/reality-based information. However, I am very …eclectic in my manner of counseling and treat each person as unique with unique life experiences and circumstances. I have recently been trained in EMDR Therapy which can help greatly when a person’s history includes past trauma, abuse, or phobias. Let me help you decipher your needs & guide you in navigating the transitions in your life.

On a personal note, as a mental health professional, I have more likely than not… heard it all and have seen most things. I would be honored to make myself available to visit and work with any person who would feel comfortable working with me on any (well, most) challenges or life transitions they are experiencing.
