Emotional Support Animal Certification

$300. Emotional Support Animal Certification

Many who struggle with anxiety, depression, or another type of mental or emotional distress often find comfort in their furry friend. Housing restrictions require documentation to allow your pet to live in a condo or apartment that is not generally pet friendly. Likewise, traveling with your furry companion is restricted without the proper documentation.  Pets can be uplifting and comforting to our emotional needs. Having your pet certified as an Emotional Support Animal can ease the distress that may come in daily living or traveling.  Set up an appointment today to certify your pet as an Emotional Support Animal.

Testimonials

Dear Dr. Paul,

HOPE – is what you gave me. Losing Gene has been the single defining event in my life. Even being a Child of God – it was hard; still is, but you gave me hope that things would ease and improve – slowly but surely.  I feel I can begin to move forward, and I will check in from time to time.

God Bless!

~ Deb & Bella

Thank you for your session on Friday. I felt heard and understood, and I also felt I was given tools. I appreciate you.

~ Becky ~ Tampa

I feel like I have grown so much, and I don’t know how I could have done it without you. You have helped me more than you know and I will forever appreciate all of your effort. It has been so amazing finding myself again and it’s really reminded me of all my strength and courage. You are an amazing woman and I feel so privileged to have met you. Your impact on me will forever stay in my heart.

~ Lauren

I can’t thank you enough for all of your help and amazing support! Thank you for always pointing me back to the lord and helping me see who I am in the Lord! Thank you for helping me be more assertive, and now I can make decisions! You have helped me with my personal life and with work also. Thank you for being so faithful to the Lord in all you do! I pray for God’s continued blessings on your life!

~ Heather

Thank you so much for what you’ve done for our family.  After my last visit I did have a chance to practice opening up to my group of friends and share a bit of my story, more than I would normally have done.  It was received with warmth and love, which, as you said, led to others sharing as well. What I realized is that none of us are used to being “authentic” with each other; I don’t think many of us are used to feeling safe enough for real sharing.  It encouraged me to look for more moments to share parts of myself with others.  I think it’s going to require a certain bravery in me that will be good to exercise.  Interestingly, since that last meeting I also find myself drawn to opportunities to be kind and show genuine care for others.  In a different way, I find myself wanting to share part of myself in those ways too.  So, thank you for encouraging me.

Laura

I am eternally grateful for the way that you tenderly listened to me and encouraged me in my faith.  I realize that I need to be kind to myself and dismiss thoughts that are not from God.  I feel like I have gone from a place of burden to a place of peace.  From surviving to thriving.  Thank you for using your time, talents and treasure to minister to me and so many others.

In Christ Alone,

Angela

Dr. Pamela Paul,

Thank you so much for walking with me through the hardest season of life. I have experienced a lot of healing through recovery group that I did not even know I needed, and the Lord blessed us with a little one as we are expecting and could not be more excited for our little one to arrive!  God is so good, and I am so grateful he placed you in my path! Your divine wisdom, spiritual guidance and prayers changed my life.

Thank you so much!,

~ Megan  ~ Clearwater, FL

“Dear Dr. Pamela, Thank you so very much for your kindness, compassion and love for our Lord and people.

Much Love and many blessings,

~ Judi Lee  ~ ST. Petersburg, FL

“Dr. Pamela Paul has been an amazing and inspirational person/therapist with helping me through my hardships and struggles in life. She is a professional with everything she does and has so many great tools to help overcome certain challenges; hence, I’ve become a greater and stronger individual in life, for which I am very thankful for. I never liked the idea of letting someone in and helping me with my issues but I realized it was definitely something that needed to be done. I always felt very comfortable talking to Dr. Paul, and she taught me how to just reflect and make changes for myself.”

~ Matthew  ~ Seminole, FL

“I felt very comfortable with Pamela. She was a good listener but also challenged me to dig deeper, to find the root of an issue, to declare scripture over myself and my circumstances, to remember who I am and was created to be.”

“I often feel I haven’t thanked you enough. There has been a culmination of our work together that has brought me to a really good place. My intention for this year was simply self care. I was determined to quit smoking & had to eliminate alcohol which led to taking care of myself – mind, body & soul. I am practicing yoga again & started jogging. I’ve abstained for 1 month with no desire to drink. I am in the word again, reading daily. I have finally embraced journaling & it is great. The change is wonderful; I feel so good. I just completed a cleanse, & my diet is getting on track! Thank you for all your help in getting me here, a nice place to be. I also met someone. He is so honest and kind to me. I am thinking I may be able to trust again!

~ Lauren ~ Dunedin

“You were sent to me from God.  When I was looking for a therapist two years ago, your smiling love-filled face beckoned.  You really got me through a personal time of crisis.  I will forever be grateful.” 

~ Teresa, Dunedin

“I’ve heard it said ‘People come in your life for a reason, season or lifetime.’ I think there is a fourth category ‘Angels!’ Thank you for being one of my Angels and helping me in my efforts to bring a 17-year VA struggle to an end.”

~ Glen

“The first year of marriage was a breeze thanks to all the skills you taught us!” 

~ Regina, Clearwater

“I cannot thank you enough for listening to me with such a difficult event occurring despite many prayers with God, and, also, with my husband being out of the country. I know the Lord is at work, and I am at a very peaceful place supported by your listening and encouragement.”

~ Allison

“I appreciate all of your guidance in our marriage as our relationship has most certainly improved. Thank you so much for being able to help both of us to reach a happier life together.”

~ Dawn

“Thank you so much for your thoughtful card. It arrived exactly when I needed it, and your kind words were so uplifting. I can’t begin to tell you how thankful I am to have come across your name. It was 100% God! I look forward to learning from you, and I know that God speaks through you!”

~ Krista

“I feel that my marriage is being healed! Praise God and thank you!”

~ Mary

“Thank you for all your help, your patience, understanding, encouragement, strength, guidance, support, reassurance, and, most importantly, your love of Christ with your prayers. Thank you for your blessings and sharing them with me! It was your Godly virtue and principles that shined brightly that gave me the reassurance and confidence that you would be the right person to go to, and I thank God for helping me to find you. I can’t express how much of a great help you were to me, and I sincerely thank you!”

~ Wes

“Counseling with Pamela helped put me on a solid path towards regaining my personal balance and peace.  As a wife and mother in a blended family (third marriage) our family has faced many challenges and is still working through areas of healing and growing fully into the family God intended us to be.  An important part of the process for me was to set some personal boundaries, surrender some burdens, and release false personal expectations.  Counseling helped identify and then empower those steps.”

~ Stephanie

“Counseling has helped to shape me into a healthier role model for my children. It has made me able to enjoy life and love for the first time. Life used to be only about being thin and perfect. Now life is about fun, love, and happiness, and it feels GREAT!”

~ Linda – Seminole, FL

“After my initial consultation, I became committed to making changes in my life. Going through every step with Pamela’s guidance not only helped me with my body image problems, but unexpectedly brought my marriage and other relationships to a much more rewarding level. I am happy in my own skin and look forward to each day. Using the tools from this program has turned me around.”

~ Dee – Clearwater, FL

“What can I say about the one experience that has changed my life forever? I suppose I would first say thank you to God that He led me to Pamela Paul and then thank you to Pamela for being able to reach me at a deeper level, human and spiritual, as no one ever has before. It only took Pamela a few weeks to begin guiding me directly toward my all around wellness that no other counselor, dietician, or doctor has ever been able to provide me. God bless this journey, God bless Pamela, and God bless anyone else who is guided to her office in the first place let go, and just let it be.”

~ Karin  – St. Petersburg, FL

“I feel I am on a better track of understanding and liking me. The truth cards have been especially beneficial.  I feel I am more upbeat and positive and have learned why I’ve been insecure for so many years and how I can re-write my personal truths and self-talk. Thank you!”

~ Shelana – Seminole, FL

” I am growing as a person due to the Get Real About You Series.  I am surprised at the changes I have made in my thinking. Thank you,”

~ Lavonda – Largo, FL

“Meeting with Pamela helped me to renew my faith in myself, my faith in God, and my faith in therapy! She was a light in a dark time of my life and I will remember her always on my journey!”

~ Jaima – St. Petersburg, FL

“Pamela was able to facilitate a specific program for me that truly peeled off many years of baggage to reveal my true self.  Through this process I have been able to improve my self-image, marriage, and other family relationships.  I have never felt better in my life!:”

~ Sheila – Largo, FL

“Working with Pamela has taught me to reach within and rewrite my personal truths.  I found an inner strength I did not know existed.  I have learned that I have the power over my own happiness, and the decision to make my life happy and fulfilling is uniquely my own.  Thank you, Pamela. ”

~ Terry – Largo, FL

“After spending 35 years struggling with self-esteem, depression, weight control, and negative body feelings, as well as trying many different programs, diets, and spiritual approaches, I have made tremendous strides with the issues I have been struggling with.  I have a renewed sense of self, and most importantly, a belief that I can heal.  Pamela was a tremendous asset to me even when I thought I was doomed to fail.  She worked patiently with me, never judging, always accepting.  I felt so completely safe and secure with her as I confronted the negative forces and influences in my life.  It is as if I have been lifted out of the darkness and I am a new person.”

~ Janine – St. Petersburg, FL

“Pamela has guided me in constructive ways towards greater life enrichment and empowerment.  I look forward to each of our sessions, excited to be working on “me” in a positive, therapeutic manner.  Friends and acquaintances say I look peaceful and beaming with energy and happiness, and that I am strong both mentally and physically.  She has helped me realize this inner potential, and is truly a Godsend to me in my journey towards personal growth.”

~ Tracey – Seminole, FL

“Everyone in the group was so caring. This was the first time ever I felt like I was not alone.  I learned so much from the book and the group.  As a result my eating habits are so much healthier and I even exercise regularly.  My whole outlook on food and exercise has changed.”

~ Michele – Seminole, FL

“Knowing that other people are where I have been, where I am at, and where I would like to be is a tremendous benefit and comfort.  Thank you for being you Pamela!”

~ Laura – Largo, FL

“This past year has been very uplifting for me as I have learned a lot about myself mainly how to rewrite my negative messages to myself as positive dialogue to encourage myself.  I have learned that it is more important how to perceive myself than how others perceive me.  By committing to my goals for a healthier lifestyle, I truly believe I have achieved becoming healthy, athletic, slim, and trim.  Through counseling I have a better understanding of how I think and how to positively bring personal lifestyle improvements through my commitments to myself.”

~ Lori – Madeira Beach, FL

“Thank you for encouraging me to be more authentic with myself and others! It has been wonderful to share this journey!”

~ Anonymous

“I have found my time with Pamela to be so helpful and I am sincerely grateful. Pamela is exceptional at what she does. She is intelligent, well spoken, and poised. It is inspiriting! I don’t know how she remembers all the details from all my ramblings, but she does and she cares, and it is remarkable. I use daily over and over again so much of what I learned. Thank you so much!”

~ Lauren – Holiday, FL

“Thank you Pamela for all the support and assistance you gave me through the last couple of years. Between God, my pastor, and you, I survived and grew in spiritual strength, and I am looking forward, at the age of 55, to start a new and exciting life! Bless you and the wonderful work that you do to make it a better place for others!”

~ Laura – Seminole, FL

“Since last seeing you, I have been promoted to a new position in the V.A., obtained a new vehicle, and, this month, my 3rd home. Most importantly is the way I have been carrying myself as a man of God. I am changed, happy and blessed. Thank you for the extensive time you gave me, and may the Lord continue to bless you and your family.”

~ Jose – Largo, FL

“Pamela has a wonderful way of helping others help themselves. She shared with me tools that I immediately could use. The best part about going to Pamela is that I felt she zeroed in on my issues almost immediately, and I was able to begin change right away. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, kindness and spirit with me. God Bless You.”

~ Joan – Seminole, FL
