About Jamison

Jamison Cole is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades of experience in behavioral health. She holds an LCSW and is licensed in Arizona as AZ LCSW LCSW-20016 and in Alaska as AK LCSW CSWS568. Jamison has spent many years supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and depression.

She takes a respectful and down-to-earth approach. Jamison listens first, then shapes sessions around what each person needs.

Background and approach

Conversations are practical and focused on small, doable steps. She aims to keep language simple and clear so parents can use what they learn right away. Her background includes work across clinical settings over a long career in behavioral health.

That experience informs how she helps people manage intense emotions and repair communication. Jamison draws on methods that build skills for coping and problem solving. In sessions she adapts to each person's situation and preferences.

The plan for therapy is developed together and revisited as needs change. Jamison encourages clients to notice progress in small ways and to try techniques between meetings. Jamison practices in Alaska.

Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic methods and how they work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The therapist creates a nonjudgmental space and supports people as they name what matters and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps break down unhelpful thoughts and actions into small parts. It teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, stress, and low mood through thought work and behavior changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jamison works collaboratively to figure out what fits each person's goals and preferences. She may use a mix of methods and checks in regularly to adjust the plan as progress or challenges appear.

Online sessions can make treatment easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when schedules or distance make in-person visits hard. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer shorter, more flexible ways to check in or practice skills between longer meetings. These options aim to increase access and make it simpler to keep up with therapy over time.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
