About Fameika
Fameika Thomas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of experience in mental health care in Mississippi. She has spent her career helping people manage depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addiction, and trauma-related concerns. She approaches each person with respect and compassion and aims to understand who they are and what they need.
Thomas uses an interactive, collaborative style in sessions. She listens closely and asks practical questions to identify patterns that get in the way.
Background and approach
From there she works with clients to set clear goals and simple steps they can practice between sessions. Her background includes work with individuals, couples, and groups, and professional experience with active duty military and veterans. She has helped people address communication problems, anger, relationship issues, career stress, and the effects of childhood or adult abuse.
In sessions she draws on a mix of approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral techniques, trauma-focused work, and solution-focused tools. This mix is used to fit the person rather than force a single method. The focus is on realistic skills, clearer thinking, and steady progress.
Reaching out for help can feel hard, and Thomas acknowledges that courage. She aims to support, empower, and guide each person through practical steps toward change. People who want structured, goal-oriented work with empathic guidance may find her approach helpful.
Online Approaches for Trauma and Everyday Stress
Fameika commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of traumatic events and offers structured ways to process memories and reduce their hold on daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, symptoms, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she helps pick or combine methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences so sessions feel relevant and doable.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers no camera. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options help people keep momentum and practice skills between meetings.
