Pamela English is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Connecticut with ten years of experience in the mental health field. She holds a Connecticut professional counseling license (CT LPC 004949) and earned a degree in Pastoral Counseling and Spiritual Care from Fordham University, a program that combined training in mental health counseling with a faith-based component.

Her master’s internship was completed at a nursing home and a rehabilitation facility. Pamela has worked in New York City with a diverse population and has served as a case manager and counselor at a women’s homeless shelter, supporting clients aged 18 to 80 from a wide range of racial and cultural backgrounds.

She has also worked in private practice with adults and teens. Those experiences inform her ability to work with concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, depression, addictions, eating disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem difficulties, LGBT issues, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, substance-related problems, crisis management, social skills, interpersonal conflict, and religious or spiritual issues.

Pamela draws on a variety of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, solution-focused therapy, family systems work, Rogerian client-centered methods, narrative therapy, and motivational interviewing. Her style is inclusive and strengths-based; she aims to meet each client where they are and to collaborate with them in setting and pursuing treatment goals while supporting their efforts along the way.

She recognizes that seeking therapy is a courageous step and looks forward to working with clients on this platform.
