About Stacy
Stacy Connor is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people feel more capable, lovable, and worthwhile. Stacy listens closely and builds a working relationship that aims to make therapy a practical part of everyday life.
She takes a broad view of difficulties rather than only treating single symptoms. That means looking at patterns that repeat over time and how past experiences shape current feelings and behavior.
Background and approach
Stacy is comfortable talking about strong emotions, traumatic memories, and long-standing struggles so clients can move toward clearer goals. Sessions often include straightforward conversations and hands-on strategies. Stacy uses approaches that help people notice what matters to them, shift unhelpful thoughts, and improve how they relate to others.
She aims to help clients apply change in real situations, not just during sessions. Stacy works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, sleep problems, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and ADHD. She also offers support for people dealing with caregiver strain, chronic illness, body image issues, and identity matters including LGBT concerns.
Clients can expect collaborative goal-setting and an emphasis on understanding the reasons behind behaviors. Stacy explains ideas plainly and helps people try different steps between sessions. Her approach balances emotional exploration with practical skills so progress can be felt in everyday life.
How Stacy's approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through clear strategies and practice between sessions. It can help with sleep problems, mood, and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help address intimacy and trust issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Stacy treats this as a collaborative process where she and the client try methods that fit the person’s goals and preferences. She will explain options, check how techniques are working, and adjust the plan together over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, homework questions, or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options help therapy fit into work, caregiving, or medical schedules while keeping continuity with a licensed professional.
