About Whitany
Perry draws on practical, evidence-informed methods in sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and stress tolerance.
Her background includes more than 10 years in behavioral health. That work has included roles related to juvenile justice, child welfare, and hospice and end-of-life counseling. Those experiences inform how she supports people facing complex life events.

How Whitany Perry Uses Practical Therapies Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes values-based action so people can move toward what matters even while feeling stressed or anxious. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that make anxiety worse and trying new behaviors to reduce distress. These changes are taught in simple, doable steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and tolerating stress in high-pressure moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to try methods that fit their goals and daily life. That means adjusting tools and pacing based on what helps the individual feel steadier and more capable.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people practice new skills in the settings where they live and work, then bring those experiences back into sessions for discussion and refinement.
