About Stacey

Stacey Zimmerman is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who blends trauma-informed attachment work with evidence-based modalities to help people navigate stress, ADHD, mood concerns, and relationship patterns.

Background and approach

With six years as a practicing clinician and a varied background in community mental health, juvenile detention, therapeutic foster care, geriatric wellness settings, medical social work, and independent practice, she draws on broad experience to connect presenting symptoms to earlier relational experiences and current coping strategies.

Her approach is integrative and client-centered, combining cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and dialectical skills with attachment-focused exploration. Stacey emphasizes discovery of the underlying drivers of behavior while keeping interventions practical and accessible.

She invites clients to bring authenticity to sessions and frames the work as collaborative, offering reflective invitations rather than prescriptive advice. Stacey’s practice reflects a balance of sensitivity and growth-oriented work; she attends to immediate symptom management while also exploring past influences that shape present challenges.

Based in Florida, she holds KY LCSW 256077 and FL LCSW SW24132 and communicates in English.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take committed action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings arise; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and modifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like depression, worry, and sleep disturbances. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relational patterns and how they shape current relationships and emotional responses, offering pathways to understand intimacy, abandonment concerns, and family dynamics.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best. Together they consider current needs, personal goals, and preferences, and may combine techniques from different models to address both immediate symptoms and longer-standing patterns.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and modes of communication. These options allow clients to engage from their own locations, maintain consistent sessions around busy lives, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for processing or practicing skills with a licensed professional.
