He is the author of “The Therapy Toolbox” and “The Feelings First Series” and the host of The Therapy Podcast, offering practical strategies for emotional growth and mental health support.
As Clinical Supervisor, Shloime personally oversees all supervised therapists, providing structured supervision, case review, and professional guidance to ensure safe, ethical, and high-quality care.

All sessions are delivered by trained supervised therapists under the supervision of a licensed counselor (CMHC, LPC). Sessions are secure and confidential.
Research shows that online (telehealth) therapy is effective and can produce outcomes comparable to in-person care for concerns like anxiety and depression (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35007437/).
Studies also show that clients can make meaningful progress with well-supervised therapists-in-training, with outcomes comparable to more experienced clinicians when proper supervision and evidence-based methods are used (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22035990/).
