Vickie Conner

Vickie Conner is a licensed social worker who helps people facing big life shifts and daily struggles. She welcomes clients dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, relationship and parenting challenges, and questions about life purpose. Vickie frames early sessions around what matters most to each person and what small steps feel doable right now.

She has 25 years of experience as a clinician and holds the credentials LISW-CP, LCSW, and CSW. Vickie draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify unhelpful patterns and take values-based action. She also uses solution-focused ideas and mindfulness skills to create practical tools that can be used between sessions.

Vickie describes her style as supportive and nonjudgmental. She aims to be a steady partner while clients sort through grief, career strain, addiction concerns, caregiver stress, workplace issues, or compassion fatigue. Sessions often focus on one or two small changes that add up over time.

Her approach is trauma-informed and emphasizes building psychological flexibility so people can move toward a more meaningful life. She works with adults in South Carolina and conducts sessions in English.

To begin, Vickie asks about current challenges and priorities, then together they choose techniques that fit the client’s goals and everyday routine. Her practice seeks straightforward tools people can return to when life becomes difficult again.

How ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness can work online

Vickie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then practice different responses. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and workplace or relationship stress.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful steps even when difficult feelings are present. That approach can help with life transitions, grief, and finding direction.

Mindfulness skills are used alongside these approaches to build awareness and calm, offering short exercises people can practice throughout the day to manage stress and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily routines and then try methods that fit the client’s needs. That collaboration helps shape a plan that feels realistic and useful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let clients use brief skill practice between sessions. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and homework to match how much time a person has and what works in their everyday life.
