About Whitney

Whitney Walker focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or big life changes. She guides clients who struggle with relationships, self-esteem, and managing bipolar symptoms toward clearer coping strategies. Whitney is introduced as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, with five years of experience in mental health care.

She uses practical tools to help people manage strong emotions and improve how they relate to others. Sessions often include skills for tolerating distress, managing mood swings, and building better daily routines.

How Whitney works

Whitney also helps people work on communication problems, guilt and shame, and finding more self-love and purpose. Her approach blends straightforward techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy. That combination supports changing unhelpful thoughts while teaching concrete skills for emotion regulation and mindfulness.

The focus is on small, usable steps rather than abstract theory. Whitney meets with people through online formats and phone calls so work and family life can fit around therapy. She offers video sessions, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different needs and schedules.

Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. She practices in Georgia and conducts therapy in English. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules sessions according to therapist availability.

Online support options

Online skills-based therapy with CBT and DBT

Whitney uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often include practical exercises, thought tracking, and homework to build more helpful daily habits and reduce anxiety symptoms.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships. DBT practice focuses on mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness so people have tools to handle stress when it arises.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Whitney collaborates with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are available for brief updates, skill practice, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, school, and family life while still focusing on skill building and behavior change.
