About Tammy
Tammy White is a licensed clinical social worker in New Mexico with 14 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, trauma, grief, and difficulties with addiction. Tammy also supports those dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, and questions about life purpose.
She focuses on building a trusting relationship first. Sessions are meant to feel open and nonjudgmental so people can talk about what matters to them. Tammy emphasizes practical steps and clear communication rather than jargon or complex explanations.
In her work she draws on client-centered methods that follow the person’s lead. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to address unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns. Tammy incorporates skills from dialectical behavior therapy when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
When trauma is part of the picture, she may use methods aimed at processing traumatic memories alongside mindfulness and existential ideas about meaning and values. The goal is to help each person find realistic, manageable ways to cope and move forward.
Tammy has worked with individuals, families, and groups in multiple settings over her career. She invites people to take the first step when they feel ready and to describe what they most want to change or understand in therapy.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy centers on following the person's pace and concerns. The therapist listens deeply and reflects what the client says to help them make sense of feelings and choices. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through problems and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build practical routines, which can help with sleep, anxiety, and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive behavior when stress feels overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to choose strategies that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process that may change over time based on what helps most.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the specific formats available before booking, since the profile did not list session types. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on high-stress days.
