About Stacy Connor
Stacy Connor is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with nine years of clinical experience.

Stacy emphasizes building a collaborative therapeutic relationship and partners with clients to identify meaningful goals and practical steps toward greater wellbeing.
Her approach draws from a range of evidence-informed methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, mindfulness-based strategies, trauma-focused and somatic techniques, psychodynamic perspectives, and solution-focused work. This variety allows Stacy to tailor care to each person’s needs, whether addressing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, ADHD, or issues related to LGBT identity and family dynamics.
Stacy also works with concerns that often intersect with mental health, such as abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, attachment issues, caregiving stress, chronic illness or pain, codependency, communication and commitment struggles, body image, and blended family challenges. She invites clients to treat themselves as the experts on their own lives while using therapy to explore the reasons behind thoughts and behaviors and to create a foundation for lasting change. Stacy offers a thoughtful, steady presence for individuals navigating strong emotions, traumatic memories, and complex personal struggles, and she collaborates with each person to move toward practical, sustainable progress.
