It's nice to meet you. My name is Stacey Zimmerman and I'm a licensed clinical social worker in KY, UT, and ME (soon to be AZ, CT, FL). My practice style is simple yet effective. I take pride in my values and morals to remain grounded in the golden rule: To treat others how you would like to be treated. I listen to listen; not listen to speak. Time and attention are always given. Humility is my centerpiece. Goal setting must be a bidirectional process which means communication is had between the client and myself. I like to say I am merely the bus driver in session which only maximizes the client's autonomy.

I enjoy working with a variety of people. I know how difficult it can be to make that first step towards healing by seeing a therapist. I want to meet you along the way in making that step as simple as I can. My goal is to ensure that we are a good fit to collaborate and then determine what your most pressing needs are. I am especially interested in working with BIPOC individuals who are moving past cultural assumptions about mental health and pursuing healing in the midst of their doubts.

But the reason you are here is that you also know that with this challenge comes the possibility of improved health, happiness and wellbeing. The reason I’m here is to utilize my expertise and professional training to help you get there. It is an honor and a privilege to be able to work with so many strong, resilient and inspiring people who have made a commitment to improve their lives.

Life can feel heavy at times-whether it's past trauma, relationship issues, self-doubt, emotional ups and downs, or any other setback. These struggles can leave us feeling disconnected from our true selves, just going through the motions, stuck in survival mode. I'm here to help you navigate the "messy" stuff, explore the different aspects of who you are, and support your journey toward healing—mind, body, and spirit. With my extensive training, including EMDR, C-DBT, and women’s mental health, we'll work together in a safe, non-judgmental space to create balance, gain clarity, and reconnect with your authentic self.

As a clinician, my primary focus is on creating and fostering an environment in which my clients can feel safe enough to process through the core issues that resulted in seeking out help. If you have a child aged 5-12 that is struggling with emotional or behavioral issues, I would love to help. Children do not always have the cognitive skills that adults use to express themselves, which is why I love using play therapy with the little ones to help them better process through their emotions without having to utilize their words. Since graduating from Troy University 3 years ago,

Finding the true origin of an issue or challenge, as well as exploring skill sets and solution paths to address this, is an ever-evolving and interesting journey. I enjoy embarking on this journey with kids, teens and adults. I utilize a strengths-based, reality-based, motivational approach. Interventions are guided by evidence-based practices and good ol' trial and error... since every person is unique. My therapy dog, Boss Paws, sometimes joins in. He may give a nudge of support or simply look cute (like fuzzballs do) and provide an element of anxiety relief. He's cool like that!

Welcome - it's a brave step you are taking to seek help. Community care is the key to a healthy world, and you don't have to go it alone. My clients often come to me during a period of transition. They are going through some sort of life change that feels ungrounding. This can relate to external changes, like relationships, loss or work stress, but it can also be an internal change, such as deciding to start a recovery path, or choosing to heal trauma.

Welcome! I am a Marriage & Family Therapy Associate who enjoys working with adolescents, adults, older adults, couples, and families of all backgrounds. My approach to therapy centers on the idea that we are all deeply influenced by the world around us. At times, those pressures can become consuming. You may struggle to keep up and feel miles away from who you used to be, maybe who or where you hoped to be. You feel stuck in cycles that no longer serve you, your relationships, or accurately reflect what you value in life. You're ready for a change and are here, wanting to take a step toward a life you envision for yourself.

Life is a journey filled with diverse paths and winding roads, each presenting its own choices and challenges. While some problems arise from our choices, others are beyond our control.

These factors include biological influences, environmental circumstances, generational patterns, and trauma. We will explore multiple dimensions of one’s life, including physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, occupational, environmental, and social, which contribute to overall well-being and happiness.

Therapy can feel hard. That’s ok. The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a safe space where you can be yourself–a place where you won’t have to struggle with your thoughts and feelings in isolation. You may be here because you’re looking for symptom relief–you want to be comfortable in your own skin, feel better about your life. We’ll talk about your goals for therapy and explore creative ways to help you reach them. Because no one person is the same, there’s no one-size-fits-all therapy approach. You have unique needs, and we’ll collaborate so that your therapy journey feels tailored to you.
