About Na-Amau
Na-Amau Tahiru is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York and Georgia with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, anger, career changes, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Na-Amau speaks English, Hausa, and Twi.
She uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. Sessions include talking through current struggles, identifying patterns that get in the way, and practicing specific steps to try between meetings. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try actions that align with their values.
Client-Centered Therapy is part of her approach too, which means she centers each person’s experience and follows their pace. Emotionally-Focused Therapy informs her work on close relationships and communication problems, helping people recognize and name their emotions during difficult moments.
Her background includes work with a wide range of stressors beyond everyday anxiety - such as caregiver strain, aging and geriatric issues, cancer and hospice concerns, immigration matters, first responder issues, and challenges after disasters. She also addresses family of origin problems, domestic violence, HIV/AIDS related concerns, and forgiveness work.
Practical concerns like career stress, control issues, and coping with life transitions are addressed with concrete tools. Sessions aim to build small, manageable changes that fit into busy lives rather than relying on abstract ideas. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavioral experiments to change how problems are handled. It often helps with depression, anxiety, and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and personal preferences, and then recommend ways of working that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process can include trying a technique and adjusting it if it is not helpful.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments into a busy week and reducing travel time. Since session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Online meetings can make brief check-ins easier or allow longer weekly sessions to fit around work, caregiving, or medical appointments. The focus remains on clear, actionable steps people can use between sessions to manage stress, relationships, grief, and caregiver strain.
