About Mary

Mary Slaton, LPC, NCC, earned her counseling degree from Loyola in 2001 and later completed a meditation certification at the Chopra Institute in 2021. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor, she approaches counseling with the belief that people have the capacity for self-awareness and the ability to resolve their challenges with support. Seeking counseling, she notes, reflects a commitment to meaningful change and to reclaiming a more satisfying life.

Mary works with clients to identify goals and to notice how they pursue significance and satisfaction in everyday life. She explores the different domains that shape wellbeing - social, spiritual, intimate, self, and work - to uncover recurring patterns and strengths. By recognizing what already works, she helps clients expand those positive experiences into other areas of life.

Throughout the process Mary offers encouragement and practical guidance, helping people map alternatives that align with their values and long-term aims. Her work centers on collaboration, curiosity, and realistic steps toward the relief, happiness, and joy clients hope to achieve.

Approach-Based Online Therapy with Mary Slaton

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and solution-oriented, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. The Gottman Method is a research-informed approach for couples that emphasizes communication skills, understanding patterns in relationships, and building shared meaning to improve connection and conflict management. Psychodynamic therapy explores patterns rooted in past experiences and relationships to bring greater self-understanding and insight into current difficulties; it can help uncover recurring themes that influence emotions and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative exploration helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective for the individual or couple.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility in how and when people connect with licensed professionals and therapists, supporting consistent access to care even when schedules or distance might otherwise be obstacles.
