About Na-Amau

Na-Amau Tahiru is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and relationship challenges. She emphasizes each person's strengths and works alongside them as they make changes. Na-Amau speaks English, Hausa, and Twi and practices in Georgia.

She uses practical, hands-on methods in sessions. That includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters most, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work grounded in the person’s goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is also part of her approach for working through strong feelings.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns. People bring issues like depression, grief, anger, career stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. She also supports those facing family-origin issues, caregiving strain, aging and geriatric concerns, cancer and hospice matters, immigration-related stress, and first responder or disaster-related pressures.

Na-Amau frames therapy as a collaborative process. She helps clients set clear goals, practices skills in session, and adapts strategies to daily life. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what the person needs now.

With three years of clinical experience as a LCSW and CSW, she draws on both clinical knowledge and everyday problem-solving. Clients are encouraged to take the next step by choosing what fits their life and schedule.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values while learning to notice unhelpful thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools to identify and shift thinking patterns that feed anxiety, depression, or anger. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on hearing the person's goals and tailoring the session to their pace and needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. This can mean trying a few techniques and adjusting what’s used based on what helps most.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and keep continuity while life is changing. It can allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or longer sessions for deeper work. Session format options are not specified in this profile, so confirm current session formats and scheduling choices before booking. The therapist aims to help clients apply skills between sessions so therapy ties into everyday routines.
