Getting to know Pamela Panitz
Are you feeling overwhelmed with life? Anxiety – Stress – Worry? Not wanting to face the day?
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I have over 10 years working with a variety of people seeking help for anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, grief, and life changes. A little bit about my style – I am laid back, and create a non-judgmental environment, that is safe, and supportive. My approach is a mosaic of techniques to help people to focus on their strengths, developing skills to manage life challenges and get unstuck.
Relocation, career change, relationship struggles, childhood experiences, trauma, codependency, grief and loss, and addiction are sometimes slow to develop or occur unexpectedly. My style utilizes evidenced based techniques, creativity, mindfulness, and media to spark discussion.
“So grateful I found her. Pamela is extremely supportive, especially when I am having hard days. She is very encouraging and has been instrumental in helping me to manage my anxiety.” V.I. 4/27/2022

I've been seeing Pam for 2 years now and she is amazing. She creates a warm judgment free space where I feel heard and validated, but also one where she offers gentle guidance that pushes me to grow. She has helped me feel more grounded through calming exercises and given me practical tools to help manage my anxiety, self-doubt, and depression. Her approach is one of reflective communication, and she's helped me see things from a clearer perspective. Navigating divorce is not easy, but I was able to come through it stronger and more confident thanks to her. I've seen real progress in my mental well-being since working with her and I highly recommend her as a therapist. If you are looking for a supportive, attentive, and compassionate therapist, she's the one.
