About Jamison

Jamison Cole is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades in behavioral health and LCSW credentials in Alaska and Arizona. She has spent the last part of that time working as a private provider, helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and parenting challenges. Jamison focuses on meeting people where they are and tailoring care to individual needs.

Her style is calm and respectful. She emphasizes sensitivity and compassion in sessions. Conversations and plans are adjusted to each person’s situation rather than following a fixed script.

Jamison draws on a mix of practical therapies to help clients learn new skills. She includes strategies for managing difficult feelings, improving communication, and coping after traumatic events. Her work also supports people facing depression and the pressures of parenting.

She has experience with a wide range of specific concerns, including adoption and foster care issues, abandonment, chronic illness or disability, autism and Asperger syndrome, and problems with codependency or communication. Jamison also supports people dealing with divorce, blended family changes, and aging-related matters.

Clients can expect a collaborative approach. Jamison invites questions, sets clear goals, and adjusts pace as needed. She recognizes that starting therapy is a big step and aims to make the process understandable and manageable.

Step 3

Approaches that guide online work

Jamison commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy in her practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around what each person brings, which can help when someone needs space to talk and be heard. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking. Dialectical behavior therapy adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships when emotions feel overwhelming.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jamison will talk with clients about goals and try different strategies until a good fit emerges. She tailors the plan to what each person needs and changes course when something isn’t working.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Talk with Jamison about practical needs like scheduling, session length, and whether video or audio works better for you so the plan matches your day-to-day routine.
