Dr. Pam directly supervises our clinical staff and is involved in treatment planning and oversight of patient care.

Dr. Pam obtained her Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate degrees from Wayne State University and pursued further specialized training in pediatric psychology at The University of Florida/Shands Hospital.
