About Fameika
Fameika Thomas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Mississippi with 14 years of experience. She has spent much of her career in mental health supporting people who face anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and related concerns.
She has worked with individuals, couples, and groups, including active duty military and Veterans. Her practice includes helping people manage mood issues, substance use concerns, relationship and communication problems, and stress that affects sleep and daily life.
In sessions she uses a mix of practical strategies. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try different responses. Solution-focused techniques help set clear short-term goals and track small changes.
Trauma-focused methods are part of her work with people who have past abuse or painful events. Mindfulness-based approaches are also used to help people notice their thoughts and bodily reactions without judgement.
Fameika emphasizes an interactive style. She aims to understand who a person is and what they are facing, then build goals and a plan together. The focus is on concrete steps people can use between sessions to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.
Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including stress, social anxiety and phobia, grief, caregiver strain, relationship problems, and first responder or veteran issues. Sessions are offered in English and follow the LCSW scope of practice in Mississippi.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Fameika commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on processing painful memories and learning skills to reduce trauma-related reactions and regain a sense of control.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your goals, symptoms, and preferences and help decide which methods to try first. The plan may shift as progress is tracked and different techniques are tested collaboratively.
