About Pamela
Pamela Merritt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience helping people facing anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, LGBT concerns, parenting challenges, career pressure, and compassion fatigue. Pamela uses straightforward, practical conversation to help people find clearer ways forward.
She blends Client-Centered therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings - like emotion regulation, clearer communication, and problem-solving steps.
Background and approach
Pamela adapts the mix to match a person’s needs instead of following a single script. Her style is calm and down-to-earth. She aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk honestly about what’s hard.
Pamela encourages small, realistic changes that add up over time. For parents feeling overwhelmed or people noticing repeated patterns of anger or low mood, she offers coaching and therapy strategies to break those cycles. She also supports those working through religious or identity-related harm and those rebuilding after trauma.
Pamela holds a Master of Social Work and works as an LCSW, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She practices in Georgia and carries a range of tools to help people move toward better emotional balance at their own pace.

Approaches you can use in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following what matters to the person in front of the therapist. It helps people feel heard and figure out what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines skills for managing strong emotions with techniques to improve relationships and tolerate distress when situations are hard.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Pamela will collaborate with each person to pick and adjust methods based on their goals, concerns, and what feels useful. That way the plan evolves as progress is made rather than sticking to one fixed method.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversation when travel or schedules are tight. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, or when writing helps someone organize thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to try different formats as needs change.
