About Pamela
Pamela Shultz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults managing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, and coping with major life changes.
Pamela draws on her background as a Navy veteran and a parent to relate to the pressure of juggling responsibilities. She helps people name current patterns that came from their family of origin and find clearer ways to respond. Sessions focus on practical skills rather than labels or long lectures.
Her approach mixes client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools. That means she listens first, then helps clients test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and motivational interviewing to support change when someone is unsure where to begin.
Pamela often works with adults dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, blended family questions, and the stress of caregiving or chronic illness. She also supports people facing body image, commitment, and communication problems.
In sessions she breaks problems into manageable steps. Clients can expect to practice new skills between meetings and review what worked. The focus is on steady, practical changes that fit into daily life.
How Pamela blends approaches and online work
Client-centered therapy starts by focusing on the person's perspective and priorities. Pamela listens and follows what matters most to the client, then helps set goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link. CBT helps people test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or break addictive patterns.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Pamela will review symptoms, goals, and personal preferences and recommend which methods to try first. That decision remains collaborative, and she checks in to adjust techniques as progress is made.
Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session choices before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and remove travel time that interrupts daily routines. Therapists typically use straightforward exercises, thought records, and mindfulness practices that translate well to remote sessions, allowing people to practice skills between meetings and bring concrete examples back to therapy.
