About Pamela

Pamela Port works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, eating issues, depression, addictions and related concerns using an integrative approach. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 18 years' experience in practice.

Pamela draws on several ways of working so she can match the approach to each person's needs. Sessions often include talking through feelings and patterns, learning practical skills to manage anxiety or low mood, and understanding past experiences that affect current relationships.

She has a particular interest in how the brain and body respond to stress. This leads to using somatic methods alongside talking therapies to help people notice bodily responses and develop tools to manage them. She also uses cognitive-behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Pamela has long experience with trauma, complex trauma, eating and addiction concerns, and relationship problems. Her work includes addressing attachment and abandonment issues, dissociation, body image and codependency. She also supports people dealing with grief, separation and the emotional effects of narcissistic relationships.

Sessions make space for practical learning as well as exploring feelings and past events. Pamela uses psychoeducation to explain how nervous system responses can affect mood and behaviour. The aim is to help people build coping skills, improve communication and reduce distress in daily life.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Pamela commonly uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps when relationship patterns, attachment issues or feelings of abandonment affect daily life.

She also uses client-centred methods that focus on listening and responding to the person in front of her, and cognitive-behavioural therapy to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT is practical and often helps with anxiety, panic and low mood.

Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. Pamela will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and adapt the plan as therapy progresses.

Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments and can allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not need video. Many people find sessions can be scheduled more flexibly to suit their everyday life.
