Vickie Conner, LISW-CP, LCSW, CSW

Vickie Conner is a Licensed Independent Social Worker - Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years in counseling. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, life changes, and addictions. Her style is steady and nonjudgmental, aimed at helping people take small, useful steps forward.

Vickie uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, to help clients notice patterns and try new actions. She blends solution-focused techniques and mindfulness skills to build habits that people can use day to day. The work is described simply: identify a small change, practice it, and see what shifts.

Her approach is trauma informed and grounded in the belief that people can increase their psychological flexibility. That means learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while still moving toward what matters most. She often helps clients create short, manageable goals that fit into busy lives.

Vickie has experience supporting people facing caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, workplace strain, and life transitions. She also addresses drug and alcohol addiction, compassion fatigue, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and forgiveness, guilt, or shame.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered from her South Carolina practice. She invites people who want practical strategies and steady support to consider a short matching questionnaire to begin scheduling and discussion.

How ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, grief, and addictions because it focuses on what matters rather than perfect thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behavior patterns and tests small changes to reduce distress and build new habits. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during hard moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick methods that fit a person's goals and daily life. Sessions can mix ACT, CBT, and mindfulness depending on what the client needs and prefers, with a focus on small, practical steps.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists who offer remote sessions also often adapt exercises so people can practice skills between meetings and apply them to everyday routines.
