Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shariece Hastings. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
She is so awesome and an amazing listener!
Perfection
I worked with Shariece for a few months. She is very understanding but also allows you to grow on your own. She also continues to give you things to think about & consider!
Shariece understands and is always willing to give me her expertise. She listens and I love it that she's easy to talk to you
Shariece is an amazing therapist and a truly wonderful resource for working through a wide variety of mental health challenges. She has been polite but firm in her assessments, sympathetic to my wants and needs, and able to offer a wide variety of information and resources to help guide me in the right direction. I have complete confidence in her abilities and always enjoy my sessions with her.
Shariece has been a great non-judgemental listener at the times I needed the most. Her ability to look at the positive side of any situation has helped me overcome my problems at hand.
I’ve only had one session with her so far but as of right now she’s been great. She’s very encouraging and kind, and she seems to understand me quite well. She’s also thinking of the future pretty early on and preparing a plan ahead of time, which I appreciate.
