Pamela Albers, LCSW
About me
I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Pam Albers, a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience working with adults. My specialization is trauma—particularly in areas such as sexual abuse, sexual assault, childhood trauma, domestic violence, and grief and loss. I’ve also worked extensively with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, substance use issues, and relapse prevention.
I understand that healing from trauma is a deeply personal journey. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and compassionate space where you can explore and work through the complex emotions and experiences that so often come with trauma, loss, addiction, or mood-related struggles. Even if you’re not sure whether your challenges “qualify” as serious, please know that your story matters—and together, we can better understand what’s going on and explore meaningful solutions.
I bring a strong foundation in assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and practical tools for healing. My approach is individualized and flexible, drawing from a range of therapeutic methods including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), DBT, Narrative Therapy, Expressive Arts Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I). I also incorporate mindfulness, coping strategies, meditation, and problem-solving techniques tailored to your unique needs.
My style is down-to-earth, direct when needed, and always compassionate. I believe in your potential for growth and change, and I’ll work alongside you to help you tap into your strengths, build new skills, and move toward the life you want to live.
Let’s take the next step together.
