Pam grew up in the Central Mountains of Idaho and enjoys experiencing the beautiful outdoors. In her free time, she can be found hiking, swimming in mountain lakes, playing outdoor volleyball with friends and family, and reading.
Pam received her master’s degree in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling from Idaho State University in 2022. She has experience providing services for people who experience grief and loss, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, substance use disorders, disability, chronic illness, transitions, and employment/work issues. She is multiculturally aware and often takes a systems approach to highlighting individual experience, including the many identities one can possess when navigating their communities.
Pam practices from an existential therapeutic lens which focuses on personal meaning and purpose. She views the relationship of the counselor and client as the main conduit to meaningful change. Together, client and counselor can explore the complexities and challenges of life; make steps toward authenticity, flexibility, justice, connection, meaning, and integration; and discover values and strengths.
Community can be defined in many ways, but when simplified down to its most important element, community is all about connection. Community is not just an entity or a group of people, it’s a feeling. It’s feeling connected to others, feeling accepted for who you are and feeling supported.
We’re social beings, and we are not meant to live in isolation. Community is critical for us to thrive, especially for someone with mental illness who is already experiencing the common symptoms of loneliness and isolation. Below are some of the communities Cali works with to help provide a sense of belonging, support and purpose.
