01About Shariece

Shariece Hastings is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with ten years of experience. She focuses on practical strategies that help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and emotional ups and downs. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at making first steps feel easier for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

She uses clear, simple conversation and active listening to understand what matters most to each person.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize real-life tools people can use between appointments. That might include short behavioral steps, mindful breathing, or setting goals that feel doable. Shariece has worked in schools, community programs, correctional facilities, and hospitals.

That background gives experience with crisis situations and with people facing drug and alcohol challenges alongside other concerns. She also has a history as a Children and Family Services Advocate and as a Substance Abuse Counselor. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.

She mixes these methods to match a person’s needs and preferences rather than relying on a single way of working. The emphasis is on collaboration and practical progress. Sessions can address parenting stress, relationship strain, grief, anger, bipolar mood management, ADHD challenges, and coping with life changes.

The goal is to help people gain clearer choices, learn coping skills, and move toward the life they want.

How therapy methods translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them, and pick small values-based actions that add meaning to daily life. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like panic, low mood, or stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace to build trust and clarity. These approaches are described in plain terms and chosen to match each person's goals.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most helpful and try methods that fit a client’s goals and daily routines. Adjustments are made over time based on what works and what doesn’t, so the plan evolves together rather than being fixed at the start.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls are useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins or brief coaching between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, school, or parenting schedules and make consistent progress without long commutes.
