Hello, my name is Pam Dobbins and I have been a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 25 years. I am interested in working with children, adolescents, and young adults who face challenges in coping with chronic illness, special needs/learning disabilities, getting along with others, having anger outbursts, and many more challenges that young people face growing up. Each person is unique, and therefore a cookie-cutter approach is not possible. I incorporate thoughts, feelings, behaviors, art, and the individual's interest and talents into our work together to find an improved quality of life.
What is success in treatment? That is determined by the individual. The individual needs to define what treatment success means to them, and the individual and therapist try to achieve it together. Throughout the process, I will be a good listener, transparent, and honest in my communications.
Our first-time meeting will be about completing an assessment and setting treatment goals. After the assessment, in the first session, we will spend time getting to know each other and making plans to address the goals. If you're ready to get started, please reach out today!
Take the first step to help. Call or Pamela Dobbins now - (310) 905-5463

It is important to listen to the individual and explore what is important to them. Each person is unique, and therefore, a cookie-cutter approach is not possible. I incorporate thoughts, feelings, behaviors, art, and the individual's interests and talents into our work together to find an improved quality of life.
