About Pamela

Pamela Gilley is a Florida-licensed clinical social worker with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and addiction. Pamela emphasizes each person’s strengths and sees clients as the experts in their own stories.

Pamela uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She often draws on Client-Centered ideas to listen closely and match the pace to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are used to build coping skills and to change unhelpful patterns.

Background and approach

She also incorporates Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship concerns come up. That means Pamela helps people notice emotional patterns, improve communication, and rebuild connection where it has become strained. Pamela works with a wide range of concerns including intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and trauma or abuse.

She has additional focus on first responder stress, gender dysphoria, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics like polyamory. Sessions are offered in English and are suited to people who want clear tools and steady support. Pamela aims to make change manageable by breaking goals into small steps and celebrating progress along the way.

Online support

How these approaches look in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. The therapist follows the client’s pace and helps them name strengths and goals, which can make sessions feel steady and collaborative.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT often uses short exercises and homework between sessions to practice new skills for anxiety, depression, and stress.

The Gottman Method is used when relationship patterns matter. It highlights communication habits and concrete skills for reducing conflict and improving emotional connection. Elements of this approach can be taught in sessions and practiced at home.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and try techniques to see what fits best. Over time they adjust methods based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face-to-face when they want more visual connection. Phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to get support between longer sessions or to fit therapy into a busy day.
