Fameika Thomas, LCSW

Fameika Thomas is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience in mental health care. She practices in Mississippi and focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, mood concerns, addiction, trauma, and relationship problems. She is direct and compassionate in sessions and aims to understand each person’s situation before making a plan.

Her background includes work with individuals, couples, and groups, and she has experience supporting active duty military and veterans. Much of her career has involved helping people manage depression, bipolar symptoms, anxiety, substance use concerns, and post-traumatic stress responses. She also addresses problems like anger, communication breakdowns, infidelity, and the effects of childhood trauma.

In session she takes an interactive approach. She listens first, then collaborates on clear goals and a plan. She uses practical strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and solution-focused techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build new skills.

Mindfulness and trauma-focused ideas are also part of her work when they fit a person’s needs. She helps clients practice calming and grounding skills, and she supports step-by-step work on painful memories when someone is ready.

People who meet with her can expect straightforward feedback, practical exercises, and a focus on real-life changes. She encourages people to notice progress, even small steps, and to shape treatment around their priorities and pace.

How her approaches translate to online care

Fameika often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT uses focused exercises and small experiments to change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or relationship problems.

She also uses solution-focused therapy to set clear, short-term goals. That approach looks for what is already working and builds practical steps toward change, which can be useful for coping with life transitions, career stress, or conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques that fit your needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allowing for shorter check-ins or appointments outside standard commuting time. It can also reduce the need to travel and help people maintain continuity of care when routines change.
