About Tabitha

Tabitha King is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with four years of clinical experience. She works in New Mexico and has helped people manage depression, anxiety, trauma, and major life changes. She also offers LGBTQIA+ affirming support and focuses on social anxiety and phobia among other concerns.

Tabitha uses a client-centered way of working. That means she listens first and helps people notice what already works for them. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at thinking patterns and behavior, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions.

Sessions tend to focus on specific, practical steps. Conversations might include identifying unhelpful thoughts, practicing new social skills, or building routines that reduce stress. She aims to help people find small changes that fit into everyday life rather than overwhelming plans.

Her background includes time working with children, teenagers, and adults in New Mexico and Texas. That experience influences how she explains ideas simply and checks progress along the way. People who worry about meeting new people or speaking up often work on concrete strategies in sessions.

Tabitha also supports people dealing with identity-related concerns, self-esteem, communication problems, and young adult issues. If someone wants to try therapy, the first step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to see how the approach feels.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Tabitha uses client-centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in straightforward ways online. Client-centered work focuses on listening and following the person's goals, helping them name what matters and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete practices to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is something she figures out together with each person. She checks goals and preferences, offers options from these methods, and adjusts the plan based on what helps and what feels doable. That collaborative process is part of early sessions so people can see what fits.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work, school, or caregiving by saving travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice social skills and coping strategies in everyday settings and bring questions back to the next appointment for follow up.
