More about Pamela

  • 35 years' experience
  • Female
  • Psychologist

I am a Florida Licensed Psychologist and I work with adults and mature teens. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, providing a warm supportive environment where treatment is customized to best suit each individual. Sessions are collaborative and based on a fundamental respect for each client’s unique circumstances, talents, and goals.

During my long career I have helped people who are dealing with a wide variety of concerns including family and relationship difficulties, workplace issues, depression, anxiety, loneliness, stress, and much more. If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed and needing assistance in sorting things out; or maybe you’re looking for a sounding board – someone to listen and offer feedback; or if you’re on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth, I would be very happy to provide the assistance you are looking for to go from where you find yourself to where you want to be.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Dr Pam Bratton is a most excellent counselor. She is very supportive and helps me to sort through my issues with her guidance by helping me to focus on what's good and best for me. She is helping me to change my life from feeling depressed and withdrawn and feeling emotionally/mentally abused, to a better mindset of focusing on myself, doing things for myself that i want and love to do that are good for me, and helping me to be stronger to stand up for myself and set my boundaries from family members who are emotionally and psychologically abusing me.

As a first time user of BetterHelp, the thought of being paired with a therapist that I would not have a direct line of contact with was somewhat intimidating. As the process continued, however, I found that Dr. Bratton made it a point to have a space that was open and caring which made me feel more comfortable participating and being vulnerable in our sessions. I wish I would have found BetterHelp sooner.
