About Na-Amau
Na-Amau Tahiru is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three years of clinical experience based in Georgia. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, anger, career concerns, and life changes. She also focuses on compassion fatigue and ADHD. Na-Amau offers sessions in English, Hausa, and Twi and accepts international clients.
She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to guide her work. In sessions she listens for what matters most to each person and helps them notice patterns that get in the way of moving forward. She frames goals around practical steps people can try between meetings.
Na-Amau treats caregiving and illness-related stresses, including cancer, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and caregiver strain. She also addresses communication problems, family of origin issues, immigration challenges, and first responder stress. When trauma or domestic violence is involved, she works to help people manage safety and the emotional impact.
Her client-centered style means she follows the person’s pace while offering structured tools from CBT and ACT when useful. Emotion-focused work is used to help people name and respond to strong feelings in relationships. Sessions tend to balance listening with small experiments and skill-building.

How her approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and encouraging small committed actions that align with those values. It can help when someone feels stuck after a change in work, relationships, or health. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical exercises to test new ways of reacting. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Na-Amau will listen to a person’s goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process means a mix of listening, real-time problem solving, and homework between sessions to practice new skills.
Session format options are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a break, or letting someone use audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to help sessions fit into everyday schedules rather than as a replacement for in-person care.
