Pamela Katra

Pamela Katra is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on Client-Centered Therapy to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She uses a down-to-earth style and aims to make conversations feel straightforward and useful for everyday life.

She has ten years of experience working in and around Connecticut and supports people facing life transitions such as pregnancy, caregiving, and health-related stress. Pamela helps people build clearer communication skills and reduce social anxiety so daily interactions feel easier.

Sessions often focus on practical coping tools and simple ways to notice patterns that keep someone stuck. Pamela works with people on self-esteem, relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, and parenting stresses, always keeping the person’s goals in view.

Her approach also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help people connect with their feelings and learn grounding practices. Narrative Therapy elements are used to reframe difficult stories and open space for change.

People come to Pamela when compassion fatigue, caregiving burden, or a major life change makes regular life hard to manage. She aims to make therapy feel like a collaborative, calm place to try small changes and build resilience.

To begin, she asks clients to identify immediate concerns and practical next steps, then shapes sessions around those priorities and the person’s pace.
