Hello and Welcome! I am Barton Sloan and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Alaska, Washington State and Virginia. I began my career in Anchorage, AK in 1988 after graduating with my MSW in California. I started with an Employee Assistance Program, and then worked at a psychiatric hospital before going into private practice full time in 1999.  After 27 years in Alaska, I moved to Washington State in 2015 and then to Virginia in 2023 where I currently reside.

I am experienced in working with adults, children, adolescents, families, and couples for a variety of issues. Although I am adept at various forms of therapy, I primarily practice Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and weave other modalities into this. I have a great deal of experience working with trauma, attachment, depression; anxiety, panic, dissociation; chemical dependency, anger management, stress reduction; chronic pain, and migraine headaches. Whatever the issue, I focus on healing.  My goal is for my clients to heal from whatever has troubled them, and for them to leave therapy with a stronger sense of self and well-being. 

I am a therapist who likes to get to the point and achieve the goals that have been set within an atmosphere where my clients feel heard, understood, and safe.

Please call (907) 250-9477 or email bsloanlcsw@icloud.com for an appointment.
