More about me

Licensing: LPC Years in Practice: 12 State: North Carolina

Hi, I'm LaShica and I'm very excited that you are reaching out to take time for yourself. Counseling is a great form of personal care.

I would like to tell you a little about myself. I currently live in Charlotte, NC but I'm originally from Marion, SC. I am married with 2 kids. I love lifting weights, playing softball, and running. I have over 10 years of experience in counseling adults with mental illness, developmental disabilities and substance abuse problems. I have experience working with young adults in transitional housing providing therapeutic individual and group counseling. I have worked with families providing individual and family counseling in the clinical and home setting.

My approach to therapy comes from an eclectic base with a strong focus on cognitive-behavioral and person centered therapy. I believe that a person should be able to make choices about their future and should be given all available resources to make that informed choice.

I look forward to working with you in the future.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

LaShica made me feel comfortable and safe from the jump, she didn’t judge, she let me speak and listened to me. I’ve never done therapy before and was very nervous. After my experience I look forward to meeting with LaShica!

Truly enjoy working LaShica....she is very easy to talk with. After the first few moments I felt a connection with her. She is encouraging and has many ideas that work and are appreciated. I feel she truly listens and cares. She has a way of getting to the root of the problem and helps you get to a solution. I have gotten a lot of help in just a couple of sessions. She makes me want to work to get better. It's great when you can actually get a laugh together! Would highly recommend her!

I'm grateful to be working with LaShica who is a very talented therapist -- she has a deeper understanding of things that's truly impressive; her cleverness and wisdom are guiding me back into the Light and hopeful side of things, patiently reminding me of what's most precious and important in life

LaShica is the best. Great listener, very thoughtful and understanding.

She’s awesome

2023 was a tough year and I felt that I didn’t have anyone to talk to about everything that had happened and LaShica Has been a godsend honestly! I would recommend her to any person of color who is looking for a therapist or honestly anyone at all!

Ms. LaShica is knowledgeable kind and compassionate. I would highly recommend her for someone who needs help in their life. She has been a blessing to me.

Excellent clinician

I really enjoy my counseling sessions with LaShica and have learned alot about ways to cope with different life situations.

She is very professional and courteous and does an excellent job.

I love her!!! She listens to my every pain and say things to help me think about what the root is and what caused it so that I would be able fix it. She shows compassion on the situation and gives Godly insight.

She is a great counselor and friend!

LaShica is wonderful, and has helped me tremendously. She is empathetic, caring, and supportive, and I am grateful to have found her. Highly recommend!

LaShica is a great counselor who provides a listening ear to my problems, concerns and issues. She responds with helpful ways to have me think about my situation differently and provides tactics to help me make difficult decisions. I recommend her to anyone having family/relationship issues and challenges. She’s the best!

I've just had my first session with LaShica and, while I didn't expect it so soon, I got so much perspective and practicality out of our one session. I appreciated that she affirmed boundaries while giving me some "grounding in reality," and that she helped me to see different options within those boundaries. Having had a few sets of face-to-face counseling, I started the session with anxiety about "online counseling." But when it was over I felt peaceful and prepared to take my next step. LaShica's such a good counsellor - direct, but not pushy; down to earth; and insightful. I am so grateful!

I have been speaking to LaShica for just a couple of weeks but so far so great! I have always been apprehensive about counseling/ therapy and have put it off for many years. Upon our very first conversation, LaShica made me feel very relaxed. The session wasn’t clinical as I had expected, I could relate with her.. she really listened and I was able to be myself. We have a call every week and she checks in on numerous occasions over the week. Again, this has really helped to build rapport and though it’s only been a few weeks - I already feel lighter and things are looking up for me. I would highly recommend!

She very detail and understanding in her approach

LaShica is a truly wonderful human, really skilled in therapy from many perspectives, I'm blessed and very grateful that she exists in my life!!!

Awesome experience with BetterHelp! First time experience with a virtual therapist and LaShica has definitely made it a rewarding journey for my mental growth.

I have been seeing LaShica since January 2023 and she really gets me and understands my needs, I highly recommend her. She responds to messages timely and offers appointments to fit anyone’s work schedule .

LaShica Hemingway came across my path right on time. It was during a time when I was about to internally burst. She made me feel comfortable enought to release my emotions & feelings with trust and confidence that she heard me. She definitely helped me to feel more lightweight in what I was carrying.

She is someone who will listen to what you say and give you the best advice.

LaShica is truly a great therapist by always balancing perfectly her humanness and professionalism at the very same time, continuously throughout our interactions. She is a rare human capable of true support, a sincere, real and sustainable support. Very smart and wise, she keeps me on the right/healthy path of life -- always helping me understand myself better and those around me. Unfortunately the hardships of life unexpectedly affect me but LaShica keeps reminding me of the best things that I needed to realise when I get lost in the storms. She skillfully grounds me like an anchor in the middle of the ocean during storms. I'm deeply grateful to see and feel myself growing as a person the more I communicate with LaShica, continuously developing myself.

This therapist handles a variety of cases and provides sound guidance.

She is great!

I’ve been with LaShica for about four weeks now and she is amazing I love that I can talk to her about anything I really feel like she truly cares about me

I feel deeply blessed to have LaShica in my life, she's truly a great therapist, always keeping a good balance between professionalism and humanness, always wonderfully wise, like a true Christmas present that keeps on giving

I have had a few therapist in my life! I love the therapist I have now! She listens to me, I feel like I can be myself when speaking with her!. I have never had a therapist to check on me daily. I feel heard, and like I'm a priority! I don't think I want to see anyone else ever!!!!

Every since I have started working with LaShica, I feel more confident in decisions making , having self discipline and confidence and she is making me more aware of my feelings , wants and needs. Something I had problems with prior to therapy. I plan on doing weekly sessions with her because I feels as though she completely understands me and gets where I come from. She is the best honestly.

She is always willing to listen. She offers ideas and provokes thought really well. I enjoy talking to her

LaShica has truly been my guardian angel, always caring, protective, really sincere in either a funny way or a genuine way. She has always been supportive, truly supportive and understanding, always very, very clever, an extremely skilled therapist. Her wisdom is infinitely precious to me and keeps on blessing my life when I need it the most. Furthermore, she's very well connected to her humanity, I'm always feeling that by talking with her I'm connecting to a deeper level with a fellow human being, infinitely empathic and kind. She's genuinely talented as a therapist and it's very easy to feel her passion, how she truly cares about her people. If there would be more people like LaShica on the planet.. we would all be living in a much better world, seriously and wholeheartedly.

She is great listener and she provides practical advice!

Communicating with LaShica always feel like the Christmas morning because she's a wonderful gift that keeps on giving!!! I'm constantly evolving as a human being because of her wisdom, patience, understanding, kindness with me and with the countless difficult situations I'm going through

A very good counselor that listens and suggests helpful ideas

Meeting LaShica has been the greatest blessing of my life !!! She's always, always excellent in everything she does and I will forever feel deeply grateful to have her supporting me in my journey of life !!!

She is great and has helped me tremendously I highly recommend her

LaShica gives me space to talk about whatever is on my mind. She then relates it back to my identified goals for seeking counseling. She encourages me to engage in self care, celebrate each milestone (large or small) and to give myself the type of grace that I offer to others.

LaShica is truly a wonderful human being who has been changing my life for the better ever since I met her!!!♡ I've been feeling deeply grateful and blessed to have her as my therapist♡ I could talk for days about all the wonderful things which make her a true diamond of a human being☆ She's such a bright star in the Universe☆

Over the last year, she has become a big help in my life that I needed. I like having her as a counselor as she listens and gives good ideas for how to address and access situations.

I have been blessed to have LaShica as my companion on my life journey. Truly blessed and fortunate to have met her. She's like this wonderful existence that keeps on giving, every time, she's really a wonderful human being and excellent therapist. She became the first mentor I could only dream of, because I've learned more from her than I ever did in my entire life from anyone else. She inspires me, keeps me grounded, balanced, reminds me of what's most important for me, helps me grow in ways I couldn't even imagine... keeps on helping me reach a deeper awareness of myself and make peace with myself. Her extraordinary intelligence always reveals to me perspectives I was missing and all sorts of things I never even knew existed or that they were ever possible for me. She is a star and an angel... a rare human that fortunate people are blessed to meet and even have her join them on their journeys of life.

An amazing and understanding woman who helps me without prying into areas I am not ready to discuss. Would recommend her in a heartbeat.

She is real, genuine, authentic. Not only does she listen to my issues, she sheds light to my situation. She shares thoughts, experiences and knowledge to help me go beyond myself to gain perspective.

Very easy to talk to. Listens and provides suggestions that address my current situations and/or needs.

I'm so thankful for Lashica!! She was the confidant and ear I needed in my season of transition/change. I appreciate her guidance and thought provoking questions which helped me think outside my box and look from another perspective. Truly a professional and always understanding. She meets you right where you are and listens. That is SO appreciated.

I like how she has a friendly voice. She listens well.

Lashica is a great counselor. She listens and takes the time to understand your issues and concerns. She is invested in you finding solutions.

I appreciated her keeping up with me even with my lack of follow up.

I love LaShica, she’s like the big sister I was looking for.

She is awesome at meeting you where you are, listening and making sure that you are understanding your barriers to change (if appropriate) as well as walking you through every situation, issue, or life experience.

LaShica was amazing. She helped me without "telling" me what decision to make. She helped me think deeply about things I would have never thought of. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind and understanding person to help them.

She has been positive, and I found her tools helpful. I was scared to do therapy or felt that it wasn’t for me but it has been helpful in having an “outside” person in helping me learn to control and self-evaluate my emotions.

She is awesome. Really is helping me to improve my world view into a more positive one. Always listens and is very helpful.

Being able to talk to her makes me feel at ease and like I’m being heard. I spent so many years of my life not feeling like anyone was listening to me and using BetterHelp and LaShica has helped me a lot.

Talking with LaShica has made significant and wonderful changes in my life and wellbeing, she is an absolute wonderful human being and I will forever cherish her existence in my life!!!

LaShica is patient, upbeat, understanding, relatable, helpful, a source of positivity in my life.

LaShica is truly a wonderful human being, complex and extraordinary, truly amazing !!! I feel deeply blessed for being matched with her because she is such a great therapist and a true friend. I profoundly admire her kindness, joyfulness, patience, wisdom and compassion towards me!!!

I've only just started working with LaShica and love her already. Talking with her is like talking with a friend - but a friend with major professional expertise who can help me get to where I need to be. I fully recommend working with her.

She is awesome! She listens to me, respects me, and wants you to grow as a person. I appreciate her and am happy to have had her as a counselor.

LaShica has been very helpful. It feels like she’s always available and she helps me put things in perspective.

LaShica takes time to help me and has helped teach me different coping strategies for my issues. Is very supportive and encouraging and has helped me when I have been rock bottom as well as when I been really in a good place. I can message any time and within a few hours I get a helpful reply. LaShica is very professional but also kind, patient, understanding and friendly.

I had significant conversations with LaShica regarding my subjects of concern and I found her counseling support to be strong. Her advise is very helpful, and helps to clarify my issues. I warmly recommend counseling with LaShica in order to get a real help!

LaShica is absolutely amazing! I have had her as my counselor for a year or so and she has helped me through so much. She is always there when I need to talk and helps me understand what I'm going through and how to deal with it. She is the BEST!

Great at responding and very understanding, even when I ramble on over and over again about the same things. She offers new ways to look at things and I would highly recommend her for your counseling.

LaShica has been a welcome presence after several years of not-quite-right counselors. Her warm and understanding demeanor, as well as her openness make our sessions feel less like an evaluation and more like a conversation where we explore new concepts and behaviors in a constructive, friendly way. I feel like she has taken the time to understand where I am coming from and challenges me to grow in a positive, attainable way.

LaShica has done a great job being available for needed sessions and responding to messages. She listens first and then asks follow up questions to truly help narrow down the best strategies for the situation. LaShica also checks in on you every few days and I have really appreciated that she cares about helping.

LaShica has been very compassionate and understanding when it comes to hearing about my issues. She checks in on me often and I'll be sure to seek out more help from her when I need in the future.

She has been really great, I appreciate her checking in when she doesn't hear from me. Makes me feel that someone cares about me.

LaShica has really helped me tackle my issues and gain control of my life again in a short amount of time. Thank you so much!

LaShica has been a tremendous help during a difficult time in my life. I live somewhere with very limited access to mental health professionals, and this has been a wonderful resource for me. Thank you!
