PTSD/Trauma
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I believe in the profound capacity for healing when individuals are provided with a safe, structured environment to process painful experiences. Trauma often shatters a person’s sense of safety and control, and I am passionate about helping clients move beyond just surviving to truly thriving.
My specialized training allows me to look beyond symptoms and address the root causes of distress, using evidence-based techniques—such as EMDR or CBT—to help the brain and nervous system heal. It is deeply rewarding to empower survivors to reclaim their narratives, break the cycle of avoidance, and build lasting resilience.

Developmental trauma stems from early childhood abuse from a trusted caregiver, usually repeated over time. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment are particularly helpful in helping clients heal from these disorders.

15 Years Experience
Online in Cincinnati, OH
Cincinnati sits at the intersection of the Midwest and Appalachia, and therapists here frequently address addiction, economic stress, and intergenerational trauma rooted in the region's opioid crisis. The city has a strong Catholic and faith community, and many therapists offer spiritually sensitive approaches alongside evidence-based care. University of Cincinnati Medical Center and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, complemented by a growing network of private practitioners across Hyde Park, Mount Lookout, and Oakley. Cincinnati's position as a bi-state metro also means therapists often serve clients from across the Kentucky border.
