Hola! My name is Pamela Soto Gonzalez (most people call me Pam). I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based out of California. I was born in Mexico and immigrated to the United States, where I was raised in the Central Valley, from the time I was three years old. I have worked with children since I was in college and through this experience, I discovered my passion for helping young people feel better about themselves and what they've been through, and also helping them get to where they want to be. I am the oldest of a blended family with seven children. Two of my siblings are still teens, so I think they help keep me young at heart! I love coffee, music, animals (I have five pets), and I like trying to new foods. I also enjoy arts and crafts, playing with my son, spending time with family, and taking my dogs for a walk. I look forward to getting to know your story and working on what's important to you.
