About Shariece
Shariece Hastings is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with ten years of counseling experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and major life changes. Her approach is direct and practical, aimed at helping a person feel more stable and in control.
Shariece uses straightforward talk therapy and behavioral tools to address patterns that cause distress. She blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Background and approach
Motivational interviewing and mindfulness techniques are also used to build motivation and calm between sessions. Her background includes work in schools, community programs, hospitals, and correctional settings. That variety shaped how she responds in moments of crisis and when problems feel urgent.
She also has experience with substance use concerns and supports people facing drug and alcohol addiction challenges. Sessions focus on practical steps and small experiments clients can try between meetings. Parents and caregivers can expect clear, adaptable suggestions for handling stress and parenting strain.
Shariece emphasizes active listening and a nonjudgmental stance in every conversation. People who prefer a direct, goal-oriented style tend to fit well with her way of working. She invites anyone ready to try a different path to start with short-term goals and build from there.
The first step is a brief matching and scheduling process to find a workable plan.
Approach and access: therapy methods and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them rule behavior. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps toward a life that feels meaningful, which can help with anxiety and ongoing stress.Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person. The therapist listens without judgment and reflects what is said, helping someone feel heard and understood as they find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions keep problems going and teaches specific skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with change.
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. Plans can shift as progress is made so techniques are tailored over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging can be used for quick updates or between-session coaching. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and to continue work from different locations.
