Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Pamela McGarry. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

My boyfriend and I have been seeing Pamela for a few sessions now, and we have been so happy with how much progress we have made with our relationship, during our sessions with her. Pamela provides a comfortable environment for us to be vulnerable with her and with one another. She provides great guidance and insight into how to approach different situations that we find challenging initially. We are looking forward to continue working with her.

Pamela has been an incredible asset to us. We were previously with another therapist for about 4 months and it’s been a world of difference having her in our corner. We feel so much more heard and understood. I wish every couple to have a Pamela in their corner. Total game changer.

We love you Pamela!!

Pamela is straightforward and to the point. Through her vast experience she can pin point issues quickly and suggest remedies and methods to overcome obstacles. I respect her and will be continuing to be in touch with her to be in a better mental and emotional position.

Pamela, is considerate and understanding. My partner and I have not always agreed in sessions but Pamela has helped us with both empathy and providing knowledgeable insights into us as individuals and as male and female. She's clearly identified ways that we can improve and be open with each other, managed our expectations and calmly helped reduce conflicts and disconnects with reason. My partner and I are working towards managing this ourselves but find our time spent with Pamela an incredibly valuable part of our week.

This will be my second session with Pamela. She listens and provides feedback. So far it's the beginning where she gets to understand me and my partner. She has offered homework and webinars. This is still the beginning with her but so far I'm hopeful and excited.
