About Juwairiah
Juwairiah Abdus-Saboor is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia who helps people manage anger and other stressors. She speaks plainly and offers steady guidance for those feeling overwhelmed by emotions or life changes. She uses straightforward techniques to help people identify patterns that fuel anger and stress.
Sessions focus on practical skills for managing strong feelings, improving communication, and rebuilding confidence. Juwairiah blends tools from therapy methods that emphasize relationships, thoughts, and present-moment awareness.
Background and approach
Across eight years in community and clinical settings in Virginia, she has supported people with anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, parenting strain, and career stress. She holds a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University and completed her Bachelor of Social Work at NC State University. Her approach mixes Attachment-Based ideas with cognitive and emotionally focused techniques.
She also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing to help people find what works for them. The work is collaborative - she helps clients set goals and practice new habits between sessions. Outside of practice, she values family time, walks, cooking, and learning about other cultures.
That perspective shows up in sessions as practical problem solving and attention to what matters most to each person.

Approach-focused care delivered online
Juwairiah often uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past and current relationships affect present feelings. This approach helps people understand why certain interactions trigger anger or withdrawal and supports rebuilding healthier responses.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new behaviors. CBT is practical for managing anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger by teaching tools people can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That may mean trying a few strategies and adjusting based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this approach. Video calls let therapists observe tone and body language during emotionally focused work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or the session is a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short updates, coaching between sessions, or when writing out feelings helps clarify thoughts. These options make it easier to fit regular work into a busy life and to practice new skills where challenges actually occur.
