Pamela Siegel

Looking for a warm, direct, knowledgeable and very experienced therapist? Look no further! I work from the simple principle of increasing emotional competence increases emotional balance and well-being. Symptoms of emotional imbalance are actually defenses, rather than true emotional competence. I help my clients identify where they are aware, good and strong and where they are using defenses. usually blind spots, which are working against them. I help clients replace their symptoms/defenses with skills of emotional competence using a guide and map that explorers your emotional interior, providing a visual support to an understanding of what you need to do to achieve consistent emotional balance and everyday happiness. I am a newcomer to Charlottesville coming from years of private practice in Richmond.
