About Jamison

Jamison Cole is an LCSW with two decades of experience in behavioral health and a long standing career as a licensed provider across Alaska and Arizona. She draws on that background to support people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns.

Background and approach

Jamison frames care around respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person's circumstances and goals. Her practice emphasizes a collaborative, tailored approach that honors individual strengths while addressing difficult patterns and life transitions.

Clients can expect a practitioner who values clear, practical strategies as well as emotional attunement, and who acknowledges the courage involved in beginning therapy. Jamison works in English and maintains licensure details as AZ LCSW LCSW-20016 and AK LCSW CSWS568.

Evidence-informed approaches for online care

Jamison often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, while Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and more effective interpersonal interactions.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathic listening and aligning the pace of treatment with each person's values and goals. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative; the therapist and client explore needs, preferences, and goals together to determine the best mix of strategies as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexible options that fit varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to incorporate practical, skills-based work into everyday life while working with a licensed professional.
