About Therapy

Welcome to my website.  I’m glad you are here.

Considering whether to start therapy can be a challenging decision, so my website is designed to provide you with a sense of who I am and how I work.  I love working with clients and I want you to feel as comfortable as possible.  My practice is friendly, supportive, and non-judgmental.  I offer care-filled listening as you express your concerns and explore your thoughts and feelings about yourself, your relationships, and the situations you find yourself in.  Together, we will consider how you might experiment with new ways of being and doing.  Please look around.   Feel free to email me or call with any questions your might have. 

I look forward to hearing from and working with you!



              A few thoughts about therapy
 
Therapy is an active relationship between you and the therapist where the therapist seeks to create a safe environment that allows you to more fully express your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.  Therapy offers you a chance to be seen and heard and this can create opportunities for deep transformation.

Therapy offers
support when you feel stuck or overwhelmed by events or
relationships.  In therapy, we work with
what you have been considering/pondering and whatever arrives as a result.

Therapy can help you
understand whether you can change your situation or to change your relationship
to your situation.

Much of the work of
therapy is done between sessions as you reflect on what you have explored in
session and try applying it in your life.

C Sloan Psychotherapy

CS-12

Hello and thank you for visiting C Sloan Psychotherapy.  I believe that psychotherapy can help alleviate suffering and offer opportunities for growth and transformation.  My own experiences with therapy resulted in my decision to become a psychotherapist as a second career. 

Life's journey includes challenges that can bring both pain and joy.  Starting therapy can be challenging.  Sharing personal information with someone you do not know can feel embarrassing.  I offer you a welcoming and open space where I am present to listen to your thoughts and feelings, acknowledge your suffering and pain, and celebrate your accomplishments with you.  Together we build a trusting relationship that allows you to share more, and more comfortably, over time.

I enjoy working with adults to ease symptoms, to develop strengths and resources, and support making and maintaining life changes.  I draw from a variety of therapies including CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), psychodynamic therapy, DBT skills (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy), Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Neuropsychotherapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy. To learn more about the concerns I work with, please see my Areas of Special Interest page. For more about how I work with clients, go to my Individual Therapy page.

I will work collaboratively with you whether you find yourself stuck in external circumstances or struggling with internal imbalances.  Being heard, understood and supported offers each of us the means for growth and change.
