Who is the Counselor/Life Coach? Rev. Pamela DuBois, BA, BMS is a highly trained, experienced Life Coach/Counselor who is committed to helping people in a confidential and comfortable setting.  Although she is an ordained minister, the subject of religion will never be approached unless the topic is first brought up by the client and is a desired discussion topic of the client.

Where are you located? I currently am without an office location so I can meet you at any public location of your choosing, such as a coffee shop, where we can discuss if I will be able to help you.  Then we can determine a location for future sessions. Email me for information - I will travel to most places in the Treasure Valley.

Will I be able to use my insurance? Unfortunately, I am not a participating provider in insurance networks including Medicaid or Medicare. However, my rates are comparable to what a person would pay if paying an insurance co-pay of 20%.  I do offer a sliding scale to low income or those on a low fixed income.

Are there any sorts of problems you do not treat? My clients come to me with a wide range of issues. Some clients have very specific short-term goals that they want to work on while others have more long-standing problems that they want to address. There are certain issues that I do not handle. If your primary concern is addiction, then I am  not the best person with which to seek treatment. If you need to see a psychotherapist as part of a legal/custody case, I would not serve your needs because I do not employ any staff with Psychological Degrees, nor will I go to any Court Hearings on your behalf. And finally if you have a long history of psychiatric hospitalizations, I would not be the place to seek treatment. If you are not sure if I can help you, you can always contact me.
