About Annastacia
Annastacia Hardin is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina with three years of clinical experience. She meets with adults who are managing grief, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addiction, and other life changes. She also notes work with parenting challenges and compassion fatigue. Annastacia offers services in English and Samoan.
Her style is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions aim to clarify immediate problems and identify small, practical steps. She uses conversations that help people notice thoughts and behaviors and try new ways of responding to stress and conflict.
Annastacia uses several approaches depending on the issue. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and act in line with those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and to practice different responses. She also uses client-centered listening and motivational interviewing to support change when someone feels stuck.
In blended household situations she helps people address blended family issues, communication problems, co-parenting tensions, and loyalty conflicts. Work often focuses on clear boundaries, routine adjustments, and practical ways to reduce daily stress between household members.
Her sessions are direct and low on jargon. People can expect to talk about recent events, try short exercises in session, and set small goals between meetings. The aim is steady, manageable progress rather than dramatic fixes.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then commit to small actions that reflect their priorities. It is useful for anxiety, life transitions, and values-based decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing different responses through short exercises. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by giving concrete skills to practice. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the persons experience, offering reflective listening and support while the client decides next steps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process can include trying different tools and adjusting methods if something does not fit.
The practical benefits of online sessions should be checked before booking since session formats are not specified here. Confirm which formats are offered when you schedule. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use phone or video options depending on comfort with being on camera or bandwidth constraints.
