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.
Dr McGarry is great. She sends us helpful articles and assignments. She has also been very flexible
With scheduling. Highly recommend
Pam was able to challenge my ways of thinking and how I was approaching situations from the very first session. She
Had a great conversational way of talking you through things and asking questions.
Pamela is a fantastic listener with lots of expertise and recommendations for deeper learning outside of the session.
Pamela has been an incredible therapist. She helped me see things in a new light and uncover issues I didn't realize I was facing. Pamela's guidance has been invaluable.
Pam has been great with my wife and I, she helps us see each other in different perspectives and is very knowledgeable in offering extra ways to work through problems like exercise sheets or audio books and mood casts. We are very happy with her.
Pamela has been a great therapist for me and my husband as we navigate through career changes and other major life events. She not only listens but gives us feedback on what may be going on in our brains when we struggle to communicate with each other. I highly recommend her!
Very helpful! Thank you!
She is the most effective therapist I’ve ever had. She has a way of identifying issues quickly and seeing right to the core of the problem that we have never found in a therapist before. She also has a wealth of resources that she can suggest for our specific needs and has just opened my eyes to things I wish I had known years ago. She isn’t afraid to do the hard work with us and keep the conversation focused and productive. I feel like for the first time in my life I’m finally getting the help I needed all along.
I really like Pamela's approach. She is a great therapist that listens, guides you and gives great tools to helps you grow towards your goals. She is a great therapist and I would highly recommend her.
Pamela has shared many excellent resources with us. She’s straight and to the point, which is definitely helpful in our partner dynamic.
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.
We have had 2 sessions with Pamela so far and we have had some extremely open and honest conversations already. She is patient and thoughtful with her responses and helps us come up with solutions to our problems. We are grateful for her
Pamela really takes the time to work with both of our issues effectively and has been able to really support us both in understanding each others perspectives in our relationship.
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.
Pamela is great. she listens and provides assistance to help navigate the issues we are having.
Thank you, Pamela. You have really helped me to work through a difficult time and become stronger and happier. Can't thank or praise you enough!
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.
Pamela, is a kind and thoughtful listener. She mashed the hard conversations easier. Can’t thank her enough.
Pamela is a great listener, and has probably seen her fair share of experience. Very knowledgeable and understanding of different cultures. The most important thing is that she is easy to talk to and offers genuine guidance and help.
Pamela is one of the best therapists that I've worked with. She listens, reflects and offers constructive options for improving. She has been a much-needed and appreciated professional resource for our marriage.
Pamela has been great at helping me identify my issues able we well as help me find effective ways to overcome my issues.
Pamela is down-o-earth, thoughtful, and able to see issues from many different perspectives. She offered practcal advice that really helped my partner and I learn how to better communicate our needs and expectations
Lovely personal sessions which are needed during stressful times.
I appreciate you
I would most certainly recommend Pamela as a therapist/life coach. She is fair, wise and can really give insight in confusing situations. She has really helped our relationship..!
Pamela is amazing. She has been counseling me and my husband for quite a few months now and we've made a lot of progress. She is a great listener and has helped us tremendously. I sincerely recommend her.
Pamela is a very good and fair counselor who offers useful, if sometimes difficult, advice for complex problems.
She is an honest and sincere professional.
Pamela has been supportive, intuitive and gentle throughout the whole process thus far. Accommodating in both expertise and approach, she has helped us immensely thus far.
Pamela is such a kind, caring and understanding individual. She has such a calming presence and gives really good advice. She is helping me through the worst time I’m having in my life and makes gives me the skills to know I can get through this.
