More about Pamela

  • 10 years' experience

  • LPC, LPMHC

My name is Pam Heyman and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I have been providing therapy in a variety of settings such as community mental health centers, hospitals, agencies and schools throughout my career. I have also managed therapy programs and provided supervision to other professionals who are looking to obtain professional licensure. I have worked with individuals of all ages and walks of life who are trying to work through challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, life changes and addiction.

I provide client centered, solution focused therapy while integrating cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and motivational interviewing. I prefer to look at our time together as a collaborative effort where the work is individualized based on your needs. Your concerns are of utmost importance to me and I will help you prioritize and work towards achieving your goals.

I am here to listen and provide support for you. If you are ready to take that next step, I welcome the opportunity to work with you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I came to Betterhelp at a time of desperation. I was struggling with suicidal thoughts and issues with the mother of my child. Ms. Heyman provided me the space to shift my perspective in the right ways in order for me to be a more confident father and by extension a more stable human being. 10 out of 10 would recommend

My time speaking to Pam has been truly amazing. She provides me with a safe and comfortable space to speak, allows me to express my emotions, and share my thoughts. I got a new prospective of life speaking to her, she is always understanding, and I can tell she truly cares. She has helped me get me through my hardest time of my life: grieving through the death of a loved one. She has also helped me get through the hard time of my relationship.

This is my second time back with better help and I chose to go back with Pam. Simply put, Pam grounds me back into reality. I struggle with mild depression and I tend to overthink and worry a lot, Pam grounds me and gives me tools to navigate my day to day & I always feel that she truly cares. Also, Pam typically gets back to me quickly which is also really helpful for “crisis” situation. I highly recommend Pam.
