About Stacy
Stacy Park is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Tennessee with 34 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, addiction concerns, trauma and many life changes. Stacy describes herself as direct and straightforward in sessions and comfortable talking about difficult topics like substance use, mood disorders, and anger issues.
Stacy has worked across settings from hospital crisis care to community mental health and longer term recovery programs. That variety shaped a practical style focused on problem solving and coping skills. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and client-centered approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new responses.
In sessions she uses clear, practical language and sometimes humor. She looks for strengths the person already has and builds on those skills. Stacy prefers transparent conversation about goals, progress, and next steps so people know what to expect from week to week.
She also emphasizes respect and nonjudgment when people tell their stories. Stacy has long experience supporting people through divorce, blended family issues, parenting stress, fertility concerns, grief, and problems with alcohol or drugs. Her work often focuses on concrete skills for managing mood, sleep, eating, and daily routines.
To begin, Stacy asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Her practice notes that fees vary by location and that the service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Stacy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered techniques in online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, reflecting, and building from the client’s own goals and values.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. DBT skills can help with strong emotions, relationship conflict, and impulsive behaviors by teaching step-by-step coping strategies that can be practiced between sessions.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the early work. Stacy will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then use the approaches that make the most sense together. That collaborative decision helps shape session structure and homework tasks.
The practical benefits of remote sessions are that they can fit into busy schedules and reduce travel time. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats here, confirm available session formats before booking. Online work still focuses on skill practice, short check-ins, and goal-based sessions so therapy can be integrated into everyday life without requiring large scheduling changes.
