I can tell you about the “dry stuff” – I am Staci Allmand, a Social Worker for the past 38 years with a Masters degree in Social Work (1996) from Eastern Michigan University. I will telI you that I am a fully licensed by the State of Michigan (LMSW). I can tell you about my experiences working with multiple types of challenges (homelessness, trauma, addiction and so many more). This is absolutely vital information to know about any therapist you may seek out. Yet, I have always felt that the core of what I believe, the “space” within myself from which I operate and relate to you, is the most important aspect of who I am as a therapist. I strongly believe that the mind, body and spirit are connected to such an extent, they cannot be separated. When something is weighing on our mind, occupying our thoughts, our body may respond by clenching the jaw, not being able to sleep, nausea, and other physical discomforts. Our spirit may feel tired and unmotivated. Our mind, our body and our spirit make the whole of us. One impacts the others and I can help you understand how. Integrated care is vital to healing. That is why I always encourage people to seek additional treatments such as massage, acupuncture, meditation, yoga, and other forms of healing. It’s all connected and it all contributes. I help people heal their mind, body and spirit. The path isn’t always clear; sometimes it’s difficult to know what is hindering us from moving forward. I am here to walk that path with you; to help show you options and the tools needed for your journey.
