About Annastacia
Annastacia Hardin is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina. She has three years of experience supporting people through hard life moments. Her work often focuses on issues like addiction, anxiety, depression, grief, and anger.
She offers a direct and compassionate style. Sessions are conversational and practical. She helps people name what feels overwhelming and find steps that fit their daily lives.
Annastacia uses a mix of approaches depending on the situation.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and client-centered listening to follow each person’s pace. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants help changing habits related to substance use or self-care. Her practice also addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, chronic illness and caregiving strain, attachment and abandonment issues, and life transitions such as divorce or fertility challenges.
She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and works with clients to try different ways of responding. Sessions aim to be practical and relatable. Annastacia supports people learning new coping skills, managing strong emotions like anger, and planning concrete next steps.
The work moves at a person’s speed and focuses on what feels most useful day to day.

How Annastacia brings evidence-based tools online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take actions that match those values even when emotions are difficult. It can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and major life changes by focusing on what matters most rather than trying to avoid unpleasant feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and anger.The right approach is a collaborative decision. Annastacia talks with each person about their goals and preferences, then tries methods that fit their situation. If one way of working isn’t helpful, she will adjust the plan together with the client so the work fits real life.
Online therapy offers flexibility that can make consistent work easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into short breaks, and live chat or text-based messaging support quick check-ins or ongoing notes between sessions. These options make it simpler to practice skills, follow up on goals, and keep therapy going even with a busy schedule.
