I am a licensed professional counselor in Mississippi. For the last 5 years I have worked with at risk populations, including homeless veterans, those struggling with addiction, and incarcerated males. I have extensive experience with adults who struggle with a wide array of mental health concerns. My experience includes crisis counseling, serious mental illness, self-injury, addiction, antisocial personality disorder, depression and/or anxiety, family relations, and homelessness. I have also worked with those who have experienced significant trauma.
My counseling style is one built on trust and genuine concern for my clients. Therapy is a joint process in which the client has goals and together a plan is created to achieve those goals. My approach to therapy is eclectic borrowing from several different modalities including; cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), solution focused, motivational, and person centered. I believe each person is an individual and each situation must be tailored to meet the client where he/she is.
Facing problems can be scary and overwhelming but you do not need to do it alone. I am here to help. You have already taken the first step you our considering help. I look forward to working with you.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Pamela Phipps. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Pamela is AMAZING!!!! I have definitely seen the growth within myself since starting my journey with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is going through a transition period in their life and needs guidance along the way.

Always keeps a professional atmosphere and encourages me to talk about whatever is troubling me. She is a very kind and comfortable person to talk to.

I have only had 1 session with Pamela so it is too early to tell. We are having our 2nd session tomorrow and after that I will feel more confident in my review. As of now, she has been excellent, attentive, responsive and seems to truly care and listen. She provides great materials and feedback when needed as well.
