About Vickie
Vickie Conner is a Licensed Independent Social Worker in Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years in counseling. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, life changes, addiction issues, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, career stress, depression, and compassion fatigue.
She uses clear, practical methods to help people take small steps forward. Vickie bases her work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to focus on values and action. Mindfulness skills and Solution-Focused techniques are added when useful to build everyday coping skills.
Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on concrete behaviors and thinking patterns. Vickie works within a trauma-informed framework and looks for one or two small changes that can make daily life easier. The emphasis is on learning skills that can be used outside of sessions.
Her background includes long experience with caregiving and aging concerns, end-of-life and hospice issues, and drug and alcohol addiction. She also addresses workplace stress, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and issues many women face during life transitions.
People who come with questions about parenting, family conflict, or supporting a loved one through illness will find an approach focused on practical steps. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes, with attention to what fits each person’s everyday life.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action. It can help when life feels stuck or when people want to act in line with what matters to them rather than get sidelined by difficult thoughts or feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, and daily stress by teaching practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Mindfulness skills teach simple attention and breathing exercises to steady mood and reduce reactivity. These practices pair well with both ACT and CBT for managing stress and strong emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Expect a shared process where methods are adjusted based on what helps.

Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a weekday routine, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and what type of session length or structure would work best for everyday life.
