About Annastacia

Annastacia Hardin is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina who brings three years of clinical experience to her work.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping people navigate a wide range of life challenges including anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, career stress, and ADHD. Her background also encompasses many related issues such as chronic illness and disability, fertility and end-of-life concerns, attachment and abandonment issues, and caregiver stress.

Her style is grounded, compassionate, and client-centered, inviting clients to bring their whole experience without pressure or judgement. She combines evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy with mindfulness and motivational interviewing to tailor care to each person's needs.

Annastacia emphasizes collaboration and practical skill-building so clients can address immediate symptoms and work toward longer-term goals. Sessions are offered through multiple online formats to increase accessibility for people with busy or complex lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that support a meaningful life. It is often used when clients want to reduce avoidance and build a values-driven routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and learning practical strategies to change behaviors and emotional reactions, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Mindfulness-based elements are woven into both approaches to help increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist partners with each client to explore what methods feel most helpful, adapting techniques over time to match goals, preferences, and the issues at hand. That shared decision-making helps tailor sessions to short-term needs while supporting longer-term change.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity when life gets unpredictable. These online formats provide flexibility in pacing and communication style, allowing clients to choose how they engage while working with a licensed professional to build skills and address concerns.
