About Rashad

Rashad Slate is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 13 years of clinical experience and a longer history in community mental health.

Background and approach

He began working in supportive roles in 2004 and progressed through positions including home health aide, home-based case manager, and outpatient case manager before focusing on family therapy and addiction treatment.

He holds a bachelor’s degree in human services and a master’s degree in education counseling with a concentration in marriage and family therapy, and he has spent more than a decade delivering outpatient addiction services. Rashad’s practice addresses stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and substance use issues including drug and alcohol addiction.

His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies to help clients build practical skills and clarify goals. He describes his work as collaborative and growth-oriented, guiding people through change with attention to both immediate challenges and longer-term recovery.

Based in Indiana, he offers sessions in English and works with clients through a variety of online formats. Prospective clients can expect a direct, empathetic clinician who emphasizes actionable strategies and steady progress toward stated goals.

Practical Therapies for Online Recovery and Growth



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and managing cravings. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore their priorities and feel heard as they work toward change. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve ambivalence about behavior change by supporting their own reasons and readiness for change, which is often helpful in substance use treatment.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then tailor interventions that feel practical and aligned with the client’s needs.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible ways to engage in treatment. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access consistent support from licensed professionals without travel. Rashad aims to use these tools to make therapy more accessible while focusing on concrete strategies and steady progress.
