About Pamela
Pamela Greenwood offers straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or life changes. She is a counsellor with three years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. Pamela aims to make the first step easier by meeting each person with respect and practical help.
Pamela helps with focus and concentration concerns often linked to ADHD and supports people who identify as autistic or have related needs.
How Pamela works
She also works with confidence, motivation, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and challenges such as addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties. Additional areas include career questions, compassion fatigue and women's issues. Her practice blends client-centred therapy with cognitive behavioural therapy, so sessions often begin by listening closely and following the person's lead.
From there she introduces straightforward strategies to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different coping skills in everyday life. Sessions are tailored to what each person needs. Pamela adapts the pace, tone and practical tools to suit individual concerns and circumstances.
She aims for a respectful, sensitive and compassionate working style. People usually start by talking through what feels most urgent and agree a simple plan together. Pamela focuses on clear, manageable steps that can improve day-to-day functioning and build confidence over time.

How Pamela uses talking therapies online
Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding the person first. It involves open listening, reflecting what someone says and following their pace to build trust and clarity. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. Pamela uses simple exercises and experiments to test new ways of thinking and coping, which can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and unhelpful habits.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Pamela will talk through goals and preferences and agree a plan that feels right. That collaboration means the method can shift as needs change over time.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let people keep eye contact and use visual tools, phone sessions are useful for lower bandwidth or when being on camera is difficult, and live chat or text messaging can suit shorter check-ins or days when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, family and other commitments, while still allowing regular therapeutic progress.
