About Zamarys

Zamarys Webster is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of clinical experience helping people navigate difficult life challenges. Her background includes work with individuals recovering from substance use, people reintegrating after incarceration, and those facing life-limiting illnesses along with their families during periods of grief.

Background and approach

She has also supported clients encountering anxiety, depression, trauma from childhood, and relational or family conflict. Her approach to therapy is warm, interactive, and grounded in respect and compassion.

She describes her style as a “heart with ears,” offering attentive support while tailoring interventions to each person’s unique way of processing feelings. Zamarys draws on a range of evidence-informed methods - including cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered principles, dialectical behavior strategies, existential perspectives, and mindfulness - to match treatment to a client’s needs and strengths.

Committed to collaboration, she focuses on practical coping skills, emotional understanding, and restoring balance during transitions. People who want a compassionate, strengths-oriented clinician for stress, grief, addiction recovery, relationship concerns, or trauma-related issues may find her approach well suited to their goals.

Approaches for Online Care and Practical Skill Building



Zamarys commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered principles in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, and to support recovery from substance use. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and validation to create a collaborative space where people feel heard and can explore their goals.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) strategies when appropriate, offering skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to manage intense feelings and improve relationships. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each client to determine which methods best align with their concerns, values, and goals and will adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access consistent care from Florida-based licensed professionals while fitting therapy into daily life, whether someone prefers real-time conversation or brief check-ins by message.
