Annastacia Hardin, LCSW

Annastacia Hardin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with three years of clinical experience. She helps adults facing grief, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting stress, trauma and addiction. Sessions are conducted in English and Samoan where useful. She works with individuals who are coping with life changes, chronic stress, or the aftermath of difficult events.

Hardin focuses on clear, practical steps rather than abstract theory. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns, make small changes, and practice new responses. Motivational Interviewing can help when someone is uncertain about change, and client-centered conversations give space to sort out feelings.

In a typical meeting she listens to what is most pressing, then helps set simple, achievable goals for the next week or two. She talks through strategies for managing panic, grief, anger, or overwhelm. Homework is practical and short, such as brief breathing practices or trying a conversation with a family member.

Hardin also addresses issues that often sit behind symptoms, like attachment concerns, abandonment, blended family challenges, caregiving stress, and the strain of long-term illness. She can assist with questions about substance use, separation and divorce, and end-of-life caregiving.

Her style is straightforward and down-to-earth. People who want concrete tools and steady support while they work through family or parenting pressures often find this approach helpful.
