About Stacy
Stacy Park is a licensed clinical social worker in Tennessee who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, and life transitions. She brings 34 years of experience to conversations about substance use, trauma, mood disorders, parenting struggles, and coping with change. Stacy aims to make beginning therapy feel less intimidating and more manageable.
She meets people where they are and listens without judgment. Stacy uses a warm, direct style and sometimes brings gentle humor to sessions.
Background and approach
She works with individuals on practical steps they can use between meetings. Her background includes crisis work in hospital settings and longer-term care in community mental health programs. Those roles shaped her ability to respond in stressful moments and to support steady recovery over time.
The breadth of work means she is comfortable with both immediate concerns and ongoing challenges. Stacy draws on client-centered approaches, cognitive strategies, mindfulness, dialectical skills, and motivational methods. She helps clients identify their goals, try small changes, and build on what already works for them.
Conversations focus on concrete skills and self-reflection. She generally checks messages during weekdays and asks for patience while she gives focused attention to each client. Stacy recommends crisis lines or emergency resources for urgent safety needs.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to offer steady support through the process.
How these therapies translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online this means the therapist follows your lead, helps you name goals, and adapts conversations to what feels most important. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches simple tools to change them. It works well for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood challenges when you want clear steps to try between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and handling stress. Online DBT-style work often includes short, skills-focused practice and check-ins to reinforce new habits.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they pick methods and adjust them as progress unfolds, so the plan fits the client’s life and needs.
Online sessions offer real flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face without traveling. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins, short reflections, or ongoing coaching between longer meetings. These formats let clients fit therapy into work, family, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
