About LaTibbie
Dr. LaTibbie Johnson- Cavett is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Mississippi with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and life changes.

Clients often work on skills for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and rebuilding trust in themselves.
Background and approach
Her style blends evidence-based tools with a warm, nonjudgmental tone. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take meaningful action. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
Dr. Johnson- Cavett emphasizes collaboration. She listens to each person’s priorities and adjusts techniques to fit their life.
Therapy can include coaching elements for people juggling work, parenting demands, or major transitions. She draws on her experience supporting people through trauma, loss, and relationship ruptures. That background informs how she helps clients set realistic steps and practice new habits.
The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make ongoing support easier to fit into busy lives.
How specific approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying what matters most to a person and taking actions in line with those values. In online sessions this can look like short exercises and weekly values-based tasks to try between appointments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online CBT often uses structured conversations, worksheets, and practice assignments to build new routines and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can be taught through brief coaching, skills practice, and role-play during video or chat sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily life to decide which methods to emphasize. That decision is collaborative and may shift as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face for role-play and emotional coaching. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, and keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and different comfort levels.
