Pamela Gates, Therapist

Pamela Gates, MSW, LCSW

Education BSW & MSW from Portland State University. Graduated Summa Cum Laude. My orientation is Cognitive Behavioral and Psycho-dynamic generally although I do use other modalities in my practice: Solution focused, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Integrative and Holistic and others as deemed appropriate. I have a musical orientation and I love to work with creative people. I enjoy developing intervention management strategies that bring the best outcomes for my patients. With my clinical skills and demonstrated commitment to serving individuals and families with mental health concerns, I believe that I have been an asset to the individuals that I have had the privilege to work with. I continue to research new evidence-based practices.

The two clinicians I have seen at LifeStance are excellent. Pamela Gates has helped me a lot, enabling me to see things no other therapist has. I have a peace regarding my family for the first time. I give her five stars! But, I have had multiple problems with the billing department, where things often go wrong.

i’ve only had one appointment with them, but it went very well. I had a very hard time getting in, but that was the same for every other counselor. I tried also. Pam was very nice, and easy to talk to. I’m looking forward to my next session with her.

This was my first appointment with this therapist. It went well. I was comfortable talking to the therapist. She was kind and listened to me carefully. The only thing I didn't like was the connection. Connection kept cutting out and freezing.

Counseling is hard. This place makes stepping in easier. We have a lot of work to do and go but I felt so easy with our counselor and my partner during this session.
