About Tammy
Tammy White is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Mexico with 14 years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, grief, and relationship or family challenges. Her work also covers parenting struggles, self-esteem, sleep and eating problems, anger, and life changes including career and purpose questions.
Tammy uses several well-known therapy approaches to guide sessions. She draws on client-centered methods to focus conversations on the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears in her work to address thinking patterns that sustain anxiety or low mood. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and coping.
Her background includes individual and group work. She has experience with trauma-related concerns and with substance use issues. Tammy also lists attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), attachment issues, and post-traumatic stress among the areas she supports.
In sessions she aims to build a trusting working relationship and to reduce judgment during conversation. She describes the first step as reaching out and making contact to begin practical work on pressing problems. Her style is straightforward and focused on day-to-day coping and problem solving.
People often come to her wanting help with particular behaviors, recurring worries, or persistent low mood. Tammy combines talk-based strategies with skill practice so clients can try small changes between sessions and review what helps.
BHow sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches adapt to online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person and their concerns at the center of sessions. It involves listening, reflecting, and following what matters most to the client. This approach helps when someone needs to talk through feelings and make sense of current problems.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often uses simple exercises and homework between meetings to reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, brings concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills are useful when strong emotions or relationship conflicts are getting in the way of daily life.
Therapists often try different approaches at first and then settle on what works best. Tammy will work with a client to choose methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can be reviewed as progress is made.
Session format options are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. They also let people use methods like CBT worksheets and DBT skills practice between meetings to build everyday coping strategies.
