About

Pamela McGuire, MSW, LCSW

Therapy is about what works for you. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental, and confidential space to explore and shift away from maladaptive thoughts and patterns. I work relationally with individuals to foster self satisfaction, further self understanding and appreciation, and restore the self. A comfortable patient and therapist relationship is key to successful and meaningful therapy. I view the client as the expert on his or her own experience. I aim to create a safe space in order to expand awareness of that experience, integrate aspects that may have been excluded from awareness, and integrate new experience and meanings.
I most often work with patients experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma symptoms, domestic violence, grief, illness, substance abuse, adjustment difficulties, and relational difficulties.I am passionate about ending the cycle of abuse and I have over ten years of domestic violence intervention and advocacy experience.
I serve as an Adjunct Faculty Member for The University of Connecticut School of Social Work. I am affiliated with The Connecticut Society for Psychoanalytic Psychology (CSPP) and the National Association of Social Workers.

I think that Pamela is one of the most compassionate, helpful and insightful therapists I've ever been to. She is an active listener, and provides excellent individual, personal care. She is very educated in trauma, addictive and depressive disorders. She has helped me more than any group therapy, or individual therapy that I have ever had. She is extremely comfortable to talk to, makes it easy to open up to, and feel completely safe with. I have grown into a more confident, happy, and well adjusted individual because of her services. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking therapy. She is extremely professional, without being distant or to clinical. A truly compassionate and highly educated and capable therapist. I have gained much help from her over the 3 years I have had individual therapy, she has helped me save and change my life.
