I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC), a Professional Counselor in the states of North Carolina and South Carolina. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor in North Carolina as well as a Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor Associate, (LCAS-a) and Board Certified, Telemental Health counselor (BC-TMH). I have experience working with adults, adolescents, and children both in individual and group settings. I also have experience working with couples, families and in various settings such as schools. Some clinical issues I have the most experience in include depression, anxiety, and stress management. A focus in my treatment is establishing a therapeutic relationship with the person first and foremost as I believe having a good connection helps facilitate effective counseling and provides the best outcomes. In therapy, I am supportive, compassionate, and am present with individuals both in times of struggle as well as times of achievement and progress. I make sure to meet each individual where they are at and actively listen to and respect where they would like to see themselves in the future with the help of therapy and skill development. Working collaboratively with individuals on their treatment goals is a priority throughout treatment and I encourage open communication regarding what therapeutic techniques and approaches work best for the person, to ensure the best therapeutic experience. My counseling style combines strength-based, cognitive-behavioral, and solution-focused approaches to help individuals achieve their therapeutic goals. Identifying one's strengths and coping skills that can be used to help work through various issues is an important part of my therapy approach. I truly value each individual therapeutic relationship and fully empathize with the different emotions a client may experience throughout treatment. I believe that each individual has the ability to overcome struggles but that sometimes-having additional support in the form of therapy can help one to better identify and recognize the coping skills and strengths they already possess. You have taken the first step in creating a healthier, happier you and I would be honored to help you in that journey!

I am a licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in South Carolina with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I have worked with teenagers within the criminal justice system and facilitated psycho-education groups with mandated clients suffering from addiction. I later shifted to working with caregivers of and individuals receiving hospice and home health care. I worked with these individuals to prioritize needs, pursue needed resources, engage in long-term care planning, cope with chronic illness, and address dysfunctional family systems. Most recently, I have worked with Veterans' and their families in a health care setting. I have found each of the populations I have worked with engaging and rewarding in their own way. I believe, regardless of age, people are people. While our specific needs and priorities may change throughout our life, we all need unconditional positive regard as a foundation of any healthy supportive relationship. Working with unique and diverse groups has further ingrained in me the numerous systemic barriers that individuals of different ages, genders, religions, races, and sexual orientations face. Programs and services I am most familiar with include, Medicare, Medicaid, Health insurance, In-patient rehabilitation services, Nursing home care, Assisted living, Independent living, In-home care, Home-health, Hospice care, Veteran's benefits administration, Veteran's health administration, Addiction rehabilitation services, SNAP Food Stamps, and Income-based housing. My approach to client care is patient-centered, strength-based, trauma informed, advocacy. Therapeutic interventions and clinical skills I have the most training in include Cognitive behavioral therapy, Suicide prevention, SBIRT, active listening, and motivational interviewing. However, I recognize that trauma and family dynamics impact individuals throughout their life. My clients have described me as approachable, straight forward, non-judgmental, caring, and as a good listener. I am a big believer of practice what you preach. I know from personal experience the amount of courage and resilience it takes to take the first step of recognizing you need support, to finding a counselor that is a good fit, and showing up for yourself in and out of therapy. If you are ready to take that step with me or simply talk about what therapy is like, what to look for, and what your needs are; I am here for you.

My name is Celita Hastie and I am excited to work with you on this therapy journey. I am licensed in South Carolina with 18 years of professional work experience as a clinical social worker. Most of my career I have worked with teenagers through adults in individual and small group settings. I have experience in helping clients with the challenges of daily life with a focus on managing stress and anxiety, working through trauma and relationship difficulties, and improving self esteem and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I am generally a laid back person, but I do like to have focused sessions where we are working together on goals. I have training in Motivational Interviewing and Solutions-Focused Therapy, so I tend to be task oriented and focus on an action plan. However, I also know that sometimes sessions may just be a useful way to vent and let out emotions that are being bottled inside! I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to explore how our life experiences, our feelings, and our behaviors are connected and how we can change our thought patterns to take control over other aspects of our lives. I understand that getting help takes courage and requires vulnerability and can be challenging. I will meet you where you are and help you find a better path forward.
