About UsPamela A. Olcott, Ph.D. is a licensed, clinical psychologist (PY4125) who meets with people 13 years and older. About half her practice is with college students who are concerned with doing well in their studies, wanting to learn how to get paid for doing what they love, and how to navigate the wild roller coaster of relationships.
Her practice over 30 years and her dedication to her own personal growth has led her to focus on what is right, healthy, and well in the people she sees. Of course people come with their complaints of anxiety, sadness, frustrations, and stressors, then the work begins to educate people as to their options. DrPam prefers a whole person approach to supporting a person's regaining happiness. That approach includes freedom from the usual psychotropic medications, improving nutrition and movement, referrals for acupuncture, chiropractic, and massage, if indicated.
DrPam likes to recommend informative books and web sites to those in her practice and believes in self-responsibility for the person to be an informed consumer of health care.
She will provide her c. vitae upon request, but briefly she has worked in group practices, with criminal trial attorneys as an expert witness, in a private psychiatric hospital, in a women's prison and at Florida State Prison, and in her own private practice since 1994.
Her approach encompasses Cognitive/Behavioral Psychology and has now moved into the cutting edge of therapy sharing the Science of Happiness.
