About Celita

LISW-CP in South Carolina with 18 years of clinical social work experience, Celita Hastie focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, self esteem, and compassion fatigue. She has worked largely with adults in individual and small group settings and uses practical tools to address daily challenges. Sessions emphasize goal-focused work alongside space for emotional release.

Celita favors direct, task-oriented sessions that still allow time to express difficult feelings. She brings Motivational Interviewing and Solutions-Focused Therapy into her work to build clear action plans. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to look at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and to create concrete changes in thinking patterns.

Her approach balances structured activities with conversational time. Some meetings will focus on skill-building and specific steps to reach goals. Other sessions may be quieter, allowing the person to process and vent when needed.

Celita also attends to issues such as body image, communication problems, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women’s issues. She frames these topics in straightforward terms and works on practical strategies people can use between sessions.

People who prefer clear plans and measurable steps often find this style useful. At the same time, the practice keeps space for honest feeling and reflection. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before scheduling.

How Celita’s approaches are used in remote work

Celita commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and then practice skills to change unhelpful thinking. This approach helps with anxiety, mood challenges, and stress management by focusing on specific thought patterns and behavior changes.

She also applies Motivational Interviewing to clarify what matters most to a person and to build the internal motivation for change. That method supports goal setting and helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps. Solutions-Focused Therapy is used to create short-term, actionable plans you can try between sessions and then review together.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can shift over time as priorities change and new strategies are tried.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available formats before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into daily life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break or after work. Others like using structured, action-focused sessions that make it easier to practice skills between meetings.
