About Jamia

Jamia Poole is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and trauma and abuse. She uses clear, direct talk to help clients sort through problems and find practical steps forward. Jamia works from Georgia and holds the credentials LISW-CP, LCSW, and CSW.

Jamia keeps sessions warm and interactive. She listens without judgment and focuses on what each person needs.

Background and approach

Conversations are tailored to the situation and aimed at real-life changes, not labels. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at close relationships and patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and develop new coping skills.

Jamia has four years of documented professional experience. She combines those methods to address concerns such as parenting, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. She also works with issues like abandonment, caregiver stress, blended family concerns, and end-of-life counseling.

Sessions are offered in English and Jamia is open to working with clients outside the United States. Her style is collaborative: she helps clients set goals, try new strategies, and adjust plans as progress is made. The first step is a short matching process and scheduling.

Jamia aims to help people take manageable steps toward feeling more capable and in control.

Approaches that translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotions and behavior; online sessions using this approach help clients notice interaction patterns and try new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new actions; it works well for anxiety, depression, and stress and is easy to do in video or phone sessions.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Jamia will collaborate with each person to choose which approaches fit their goals and preferences. Together they set clear goals, try practical steps, and adjust the plan as needed.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let you work face to face from home, phone sessions remove the need for a camera, and live chat or text messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options create flexibility for different schedules, comfort levels, and needs while keeping the focus on steady progress.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.
