About Fameika
Fameika Thomas is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience based in Mississippi. She has spent her career focused on common family and relationship concerns, helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and related struggles. She works directly with individuals, couples, and families to understand pressures at home and in relationships.
Her approach is interactive and goal-oriented. She listens first, then helps clients set clear, practical goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on improving communication, managing emotions such as anger, addressing grief, and handling life changes that affect family dynamics. Fameika uses evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused techniques. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to help people find workable steps forward.
These methods are used to reduce symptoms and build skills for everyday life. Sessions often include talking through specific problems, practicing new ways to respond, and planning small experiments to test change. Treatment plans are tailored to each person or family based on their situation and goals.
She offers care in English and provides multiple online session formats to fit different schedules. The first step is a short matching process and then scheduling according to availability, which helps match families to an approach that fits their needs.
How practical therapy methods work online
Trauma-focused therapy helps people address and process painful memories in a gradual, supported way. It is used when past events are still causing strong reactions, sleep problems, or relationship strain. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches clear skills to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change unhelpful patterns.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest approaches to try. Together they set short-term goals and adjust methods when needed so the work stays practical and relevant to family life.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase convenience. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to continue work between appointments. Many people find the mix of live conversations and messaging helpful for practicing new skills and staying on track.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
