Stacy Connor

Stacy Connor, LCSW, brings nine years of licensed clinical social work experience in North Carolina. She focuses on helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and trauma-related issues. Stacy emphasizes that everyone deserves to feel lovable, capable, and worthwhile, and she centers sessions on the person rather than on a single symptom.

Stacy listens for long-standing patterns and recurring feelings that keep problems coming back. She typically explores how past experiences affect present life and relationships. Sessions aim to identify the roots of ongoing distress and to build practical steps toward change.

Her approach draws on several therapeutic styles, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based methods. She blends these to match each person’s needs, working with emotions, thoughts, and relationship dynamics in straightforward ways.

Stacy has experience supporting people through grief, caregiver stress, chronic illness, adoption and foster care issues, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses sleep problems, self-esteem, ADHD-related concerns, and challenges around communication and control.

Therapy starts with getting to know a person and setting clear goals together. Stacy treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them make changes that feel doable.

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps toward what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, anger, and when someone wants clearer day-to-day goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting, which can be helpful for intimacy issues and relationship distress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that match their goals, adjust what’s not helping, and combine techniques when that makes sense. The client’s needs, preferences, and progress guide the selection of strategies rather than a single fixed method.

Check the session format options before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can fit into busy lives by reducing travel time and making it easier to schedule around work or caregiving. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and avoids the need to be on camera if a phone call is preferred. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment work to an online setting so clients can practice tools between meetings and track progress in day-to-day life.
