Vickie Conner , LISW-CP, LCSW, CSW

Vickie Conner is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She supports those dealing with addictions, workplace strain, parenting pressures, and issues many women face. Her approach aims to meet people where they are and take practical steps forward.

Vickie holds LISW-CP, LCSW, and CSW credentials and brings 25 years of experience in counseling. She uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance-based strategies to help clients notice what matters and act on it. Sessions focus on clear, doable actions rather than long theory talks.

She blends solution-focused techniques and mindfulness skills to build routines people can use every day. That can mean practicing short breathing exercises, testing a new behavior between sessions, or trying a different way to reframe a worry. Small, steady changes are often the pathway to bigger shifts.

Vickie also works with stress related to caregiving, aging and geriatric issues, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and compassion fatigue. Other focus areas include communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and finding life purpose. She frames work around clients' values and practical goals.

Therapy is offered from South Carolina and conducted in English. Vickie uses a trauma-informed lens and emphasizes collaboration and respect. She aims to help people build tools they can use long after sessions end.

Practical approaches for online care

Vickie uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. That often looks like setting a small experiment between sessions and reviewing what changed the next time you talk.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking meaningful action even when emotions are difficult. ACT can help with anxiety, grief, and major life transitions by shifting attention toward what matters most.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then try methods that fit the person. Adjustments are made as needed so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different routines. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging formats can serve for brief check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days.
