About Na-Amau

Na-Amau Tahiru uses clear, evidence-informed strategies to help people manage worry, stress, and life transitions. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW and also holds a CSW credential. Na-Amau writes in simple terms and focuses on practical changes that make daily life feel more manageable.

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is part of her approach when people want to work on values and living differently despite difficult feelings. Client-centered methods guide how she listens and responds, keeping sessions focused on each person’s priorities.

She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, family problems, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related concerns. Additional focus areas include caregiver stress, aging and geriatric matters, cancer and hospice counseling, immigration issues, and first responder stress.

She offers sessions in English, Hausa, and Twi and provides care from Georgia. International clients are accepted. Session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow for flexible ways to check in and keep momentum between meetings.

How Na-Amau Uses Practical Therapies Online

Na-Amau regularly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that fuel anxiety and depression. It focuses on small experiments and clear homework to test new ways of thinking and acting.

She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult feelings are present. ACT is useful for coping with chronic stress, grief, and ongoing life changes by teaching acceptance skills alongside committed goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Na-Amau will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then shape sessions together. This collaborative planning makes sure methods and pacing fit the person’s life and needs.

Online sessions can be held by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow fuller visual cues for deeper conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging gives quick check-ins or written reflections between meetings. These options make it simpler to keep consistent progress while fitting therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
