About Stacey
Stacey Zimmerman is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who centers her work on attachment and practical change. She uses an integrative approach that blends present-day coping with exploration of past patterns. Sessions aim to be straightforward and grounded so people can talk about what matters most to them.
Stacey draws on six years of clinical experience across many settings. Her background includes community mental health, therapeutic foster care, juvenile detention, geriatric wellness-assisted living, medical social work, and independent practice.
Background and approach
She also has many years of prior service in the U.S. Army, reserves, National Guard, and later as a contractor with the U.S. Navy.
In sessions she focuses on identifying the patterns that drive behavior. She mixes analytical work - looking at roots and triggers - with practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She encourages open, honest conversation and gives time to reflect rather than handing out advice.
Stacey commonly uses approaches that address how attachment, thoughts, and behavior interact. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strain, eating and sleep problems, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and related areas. She also helps people facing abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency, family of origin problems, and body image issues.
Her style is calm and direct. Clients are invited to be authentic and to bring what matters most into the room. Stacey aims to help people learn skills, notice patterns, and make choices that better align with their values and goals.

Online support
Using attachment work and skills-based therapy online
Stacey often blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships and self-view, and it helps people rework patterns that cause repeated conflict or loneliness.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Stacey talks with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences, then adapts methods to fit what feels most useful. She mixes insight about past patterns with concrete skills so people leave sessions with both understanding and tools they can use between meetings.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let clients send shorter updates, ask questions between sessions, or use therapy in smaller bursts during a busy day. These options offer flexibility to match therapy to everyday life.
