Zamarys Webster , LCSW

Zamarys Webster is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of experience. She has worked across settings that include addiction recovery, trauma, reintegration after incarceration, and supporting people facing life-limiting illness and related grief.

Her style is warm and interactive. She says she aims to be a "heart with ears" and listens closely without judgment. Sessions focus on practical steps the person can try between meetings as well as the emotions they are carrying.

Zamarys tailors care to each person's needs. She adapts tools and skills so they fit how someone thinks and feels. That might mean practicing coping skills, working on communication, or making a plan to reduce substance use triggers.

People come to her for a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, adoption or foster care matters, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and problems tied to family of origin.

Her approach draws on client-centered work, cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, existential questions, and mindfulness skills. Zamarys emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and building on existing strengths. She works to help people feel steadier and more able to handle the next steps in their lives.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building on their strengths. Sessions often involve reflective listening and collaborative goal-setting, which can help with anxiety, relationship concerns, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and problematic substance use because it breaks issues into manageable steps.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It can be useful for people who need tools for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and better interpersonal communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Zamarys will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will try options and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets people use visual cues and full conversation. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick problem-solving, or ongoing written support between longer sessions.
