About Stacy
Stacy Park is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, and addiction. She brings 34 years of experience and a calm, approachable manner to conversations about parenting, sleep and eating concerns, mood disorders, trauma, and life transitions. Stacy recognizes that change feels hard and often unsettling, and she aims to make the first step easier for people who reach out.
Her background includes work in hospital crisis settings and longer-term community mental health care in Tennessee. That mix has shaped a flexible approach that fits urgent needs and ongoing recovery. Stacy listens for each person’s priorities and tailors conversation and strategies to what will work in daily life.
In sessions she uses Motivational Interviewing, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness practices. Those tools are used to help people build clearer goals, change unhelpful patterns, and manage emotions more effectively. She favors straightforward talk, practical skills, and occasional humor to keep work grounded and realistic.
Stacy checks messages regularly Monday through Friday and aims to respond promptly while balancing current sessions. She asks people to be patient if she is attending to others during the day. The therapy plan is shaped together, with an emphasis on respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
To begin, she invites prospective clients to take the first step and reach out, and she looks forward to supporting people through their next chapter.

How these approaches shape online work
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and build motivation at a pace that feels manageable. It focuses on reflective listening and guiding questions to uncover what matters most to the client.
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening without judgment and following the person’s lead. This approach supports people who need a respectful space to talk through confusing feelings and life choices.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood management tasks.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick or blend methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as situations evolve and progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel, or have shorter check-ins when time is limited. They also let people use different skills in real-life settings right after a session. Licensed professionals will discuss how to structure sessions so they work with your routine and goals. -
