Maria Slaughter

Hello, I’m Maria Slaughter, a Licensed Clinical Independent Social Worker (LCISW) in Georgia and Ohio. I’ve spent over ten years supporting individuals through some of life’s most challenging transitions—from managing anxiety and depression to healing from trauma and navigating grief.

My approach is client-centered, meaning I meet you where you are and tailor our work to your unique needs and goals. I use a strengths-based lens to help you build on what’s already working while gently addressing what’s not. I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where healing, self-discovery, and growth can unfold at your own pace.

You can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space where your story matters. Over time, many clients leave sessions feeling more grounded, confident, and better equipped to manage life’s challenges with clarity and self-compassion.
