Getting to know Sharyn Slavin

I understand that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all; your story, experiences, and struggles are unique to you. I believe it’s important to meet clients where they are and identify where they want to be. I am inspired by my clients and witnessing their journeys of self-discovery and healing. My approach When working with clients, I engage in active listening, use humor, and challenge unhelpful and negative thought patterns. I utilize empathy as well as validate and normalize a client’s experiences and feelings. My approach leans more towards psychodynamic and cognitive behavior modalities, but I adapt to the needs of my clients. My focus Are you looking for personal growth, finding clarity in some area of your life, working through complex emotions, wanting to challenge your negative thinking patterns, or learning new techniques to cope with difficult situations? I will help to empower you to identify and overcome barriers and see your strengths. My interpersonal approach to therapy is transparent, culturally sensitive, non-judgmental, warm, and validating. I provide a safe and supportive environment for clients’ journey of self-discovery. I strive to empower clients to recognize their strengths and become the best version of themselves.

When working with clients, I engage in active listening, use open-ended and clarifying questions, and summarize what I’ve heard.
