About Pamela
Pamela Shultz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and big life changes. She draws on her experience as a Navy veteran and a parent to relate to the demands of busy, overwhelmed lives. Her approach aims to be direct and practical so people can use what they learn right away.
Pamela focuses on substance use and recovery by helping clients spot unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She works on emotional regulation and on building routines that support lasting change. Sessions are grounded in real-life problem solving rather than abstract theory. Her style is collaborative and straightforward.
She listens closely, asks clear questions, and supports clients in setting short-term goals. Progress is tracked through practical steps clients can try between sessions. Pamela uses a mix of methods depending on each person’s needs, including client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, and mindfulness tools.
She also draws on motivational interviewing to support readiness for change. With three years of counseling experience, Pamela sees adults in Louisiana and offers multiple online formats. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
People who want to begin can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their life.
Approaches that fit online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s concerns. It emphasizes the client’s goals and builds trust so people can speak openly about stress, relationships, or recovery needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, and addictive behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Pamela will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She will try methods that match the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is made, so the approach stays useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on the go. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, quick tools between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
