Empowering You to Create Your Own Happiness.
About Pamela Leslie, MSW, LISW-S, LLC
It is my purpose as a therapist to help clients understand they make their own happiness, sometimes with the collaboration of a compassionate caring mental health professional. It is my mission to provide the most effective evidence-based interventions to provide the tools for addressing any changes clients feel they need to make in their lives. I utilize the standard interventions in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and EMDR for trauma therapy. I also offer grief, bereavement and loss therapy, and motivational interviewing for promoting change for individuals struggling with addiction.
These interventions provide the necessary therapy for depression, which is the number one mental health issue we all experience. They also address anxiety, low self-esteem, overwhelming emotions and trauma. Therapy helps you to understand yourself, and your own issues. I provide the private space clients need to engage in talk therapy.

Testimonials
"I cannot overstate the impact that Pam has had on my healing journey. I began therapy carrying the weight of past trauma, unresolved anger, and deeply ingrained people-pleasing tendencies that left me feeling disconnected from myself. Pam has a true way of allowing her clients to feel at ease discussing even the most difficult topics, and has been so encouraging throughout the entire process. Through her guidance, I have not only gotten a headstart on processing my trauma but have also learned to acknowledge and express my anger in a healthy way. She has helped me set boundaries, reclaim my voice, and recognize that my worth is independent of my ability to please others. I now navigate life with far more confidence and self-compassion. I am beyond grateful for the person I have become through our work together.
"I have been in therapy with Pam Leslie for over two years, and in that time she has demonstrated the utmost dependability, empathy, expertise in her field, and professionalism. No matter what issue I bring to her from my life, she has the perfect response; she remembers everything I tell her and, when applicable, brings up things from my past that even I had forgotten! I look forward to therapy with her and it's a highlight of my week; I would undoubtedly recommend her services to anyone feeling stuck or needing help figuring out their emotions."
