About Tammy

Tammy White is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New Mexico who focuses on a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 14 years of experience, she brings practical tools and empathic support to people navigating life transitions, career challenges, parenting stress, intimacy-related issues, and mood disorders. Her approach is collaborative and person-focused, emphasizing a strong therapeutic connection where clients can explore thoughts and feelings without judgment.

Tammy integrates evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy and DBT skills alongside client-centered and existential perspectives, and she uses EMDR when trauma processing is indicated.

This blend allows her to tailor treatment to each person’s needs, addressing symptoms like sleep and eating disturbances as well as deeper concerns such as attachment patterns, guilt and shame, isolation, and life purpose. Clients can expect a warm, nonblaming stance and practical strategies for coping with anger, phobias, PTSD symptoms, and women's issues.

Tammy has a history of working with individuals, families, and groups and aims to help clients identify meaningful change while honoring their pace and goals.

Approaches that guide online treatment and support

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead to clarify values and choices; this approach helps when someone needs a trusting space to explore emotions and life direction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and practical strategies, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) offers a trauma-focused method for processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity when trauma is a central concern.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend or combine methods that fit the individual’s situation. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling around work, family, and other commitments. These formats make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals without geographic barriers, and they allow for a mix of real-time sessions and ongoing messaging to reinforce skills between appointments.
