About Tammy

Tammy White is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New Mexico with 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, trauma, grief, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and life changes.

Tammy aims to create a calm space where people can talk honestly about what’s worrying them and start to make small, practical changes. She uses straightforward methods to address painful memories, strong emotions, and day-to-day struggles.

Background and approach

Tammy draws on client-centered work to listen deeply and build trust. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new skills. For people coping with intense reactions or self-destructive habits, Tammy incorporates elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

She also offers EMDR for those who want a structured approach to processing traumatic memories. Tammy keeps sessions focused and practical. Meetings look different depending on the issue - sometimes they are skill-building check-ins, sometimes they are reflective conversations about meaning and values.

The goal is steady progress that fits each person’s life and pace. Her background includes work with individuals, groups, and family-related concerns in clinical settings. Tammy welcomes questions about what a first session will feel like and helps people plan the next steps when they are ready to begin therapy.

How Tammy's Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience. In practice this means sessions begin with the therapist offering empathic attention and reflecting what matters to the client, which can help reduce defensiveness and build trust for other work. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses simple exercises to try different responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. DBT practice includes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness exercises that can be practiced between sessions. Tammy uses these approaches collaboratively, inviting clients to set goals and choose methods that fit their needs and pace.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and skill coaching. Phone sessions are useful when a video connection is difficult or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients send notes, practice skills, or check in between appointments. These options support flexibility and consistent progress for people balancing work, family, and other demands.
