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 Alaska and Arizona. Jamison focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and parenting concerns.
Jamison listens without judgment and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. She aims to make sessions feel manageable and straightforward. Her style is respectful and compassionate, and she helps people notice small changes that matter in daily life.
Background and approach
Over twenty years in the field have given Jamison a wide view of common difficulties people face. She has worked with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, blended family challenges, chronic illness and pain, and divorce or separation. She also addresses personality-related concerns and communication problems.
She uses practical methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral approaches, dialectical strategies, emotionally-focused ideas, and solution-focused techniques. Jamison matches methods to the situation and focuses on skills people can use between sessions. Jamison works in Alaska and offers sessions in English.
She describes starting therapy as a courageous step and helps people move forward at their own pace. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled based on availability.
Approaches that translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and builds a plan based on their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving tolerance for stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist discusses goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and make adjustments along the way so the plan fits the person’s life.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, and other routines while still working with a licensed professional.
