How I can show the following

[tex]\int _{\mathbb{T}} \frac{1}{|1-e^{-i\theta}z|^2}dm(e^{i\theta})= \frac{1}{1-|z|^2} ,[/tex]
where z is in the unit disc
dm is the normalized Lebesgue measure and
T is the unite circle.

This is a special case of the Poisson formula in the unit disc. Here the harmonic function is the constant function f(z) = 1.
