Stacy Connor , LCSW

Stacy Connor is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with nine years of experience. She focuses on helping people feel more lovable, capable, and worthwhile. Stacy centers the relationship with each person and aims to understand patterns that keep problems repeating.

She approaches therapy by looking beyond single symptoms to the life patterns that sustain them. That often means talking about the past and noticing how earlier experiences show up now. Stacy explains things plainly and works with strong feelings, including traumatic memories and grief.

Stacy helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports those dealing with relationship pain, ADHD, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she addresses include body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, adoption and foster care issues, and attachment-related concerns.

Her work draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer self-understanding, and goals the person finds meaningful. Stacy prefers a collaborative stance - people are treated as the expert on their own life.

People in North Carolina can work with Stacy online by phone, video, live chat, or text messaging. She guides each person through a short matching questionnaire and helps plan the next steps toward their goals.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and struggles with motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people shift interactions that cause pain, which can help with intimacy-related issues and attachment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Stacy works with each person to figure out which methods match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The aim is a practical, collaborative path rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people work face-to-face when that feels helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can work well for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing check-ins and brief skill practice between sessions. These options make therapy easier to fit into work, caregiving, or medical schedules while keeping the focus on making steady progress.
