Getting to know Pamela Coleman

My name is Pamela Coleman, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 24 years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from California State University, Bakersfield. My approach to therapy is client-centered, and my focus areas include adults of all ages, adolescents, couples, and families. My approach My overall approach is eclectic, grounded in an attachment theory-based perspective. I am trauma-informed and trauma-responsive. My focus I work primarily with clients who have experienced varying levels of trauma and, as a result, are struggling to function in some area(s) of their lives. This may present as anxiety, avoidance, depression, or other challenges. I also work with couples motivated to resolve relationship issues and families facing difficulties. I enjoy working with adolescents, provided they are willing to participate on camera, at least initially. I am open to working with younger children if they are mature enough for video sessions or if their parent is willing to engage in interactive therapy with them. My communication style My communication style is direct, client-centered, and down-to-earth. I have a very dry sense of humor. As a client, you will feel listened to and supported, with a partner by your side on your healing journey. My journey to therapy My attraction to becoming a therapist began with my own family. I discovered a passion for this field and a drive to help others. I learned that therapy can transform a person’s life through process, skill-building, and support. Over the years, my passion for learning and honing my skills has never wavered. I truly enjoy working as a therapist and helping others on their healing journey. My goals for you I believe clients should set the goals they want to achieve in therapy, with guidance from the therapist.
