About Juwairiah

Juwairiah Abdus-Saboor is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia who brings an integrative approach to helping individuals and families navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. She completed a Bachelor of Social Work with a minor in Spanish at NC State University in 2012 and earned a Master of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2016. She obtained her clinical social work license in 2019 and has eight years of experience working as a mental health professional across cities in Virginia.

In 2020 she completed specialized training as a Certified Child & Adolescent Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP-CA), reflecting focused skills in supporting young people with anxiety. Her clinical practice blends attachment-informed work with strength-based, solution-focused, self-psychology, and systems approaches to help clients build resilience, improve relationships, and regain balance. She works with a wide range of concerns including family and relationship issues, parenting and fatherhood challenges, addiction, ADHD, bipolar disorder, career stress, compassion fatigue, and the emotional impacts of caregiving, loss, and immigration.

Born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina by Pan-African parents and one of five sisters, she draws on personal and professional experience to relate to family dynamics and multicultural perspectives. She is a mother of two young sons and is married. Outside of work she enjoys walking, traveling, cooking and trying new foods, crafting play-dough creations with her children, and learning about different cultures and history.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape emotions and behavior. In this approach she helps clients understand patterns of connection and safety, which can be especially helpful for relationship struggles, abandonment concerns, and family-of-origin issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that examines how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It is commonly used to address anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes by teaching strategies to reframe thinking and build new habits.

Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and self-compassion. It supports clients who experience stress, anger, or emotional overwhelm by teaching techniques to regulate emotion and increase resilience.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to identify which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time to ensure the best fit among approaches used by licensed professionals.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can access care from home, during breaks at work, or while managing caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and integrate therapeutic tools into everyday life.
