About Shlomo

Shlomo Schloss is a licensed independent clinical social worker with ten years of practice. He offers a warm, interactive approach and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting concerns. He speaks English and works with clients across Minnesota and internationally.

He combines attachment-based ideas with client-centered listening to create practical conversations. Sessions aim to clarify what matters most to each person and to build small, manageable changes.

Background and approach

He also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method for work around relationship challenges and intimacy-related issues. Shlomo has supported people coping with trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, and compassion fatigue. He also addresses concerns such as self-esteem, anger, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and job stress.

Additional focuses include attachment and family of origin issues, fatherhood topics, chronic illness and disability, and first responder stress. His style is respectful and nonjudgmental. He avoids labels and prefers conversations that fit the person in front of him.

Therapy typically looks like clear goals, steady check-ins, and tools you can try between sessions. To begin, people use the site matching process to schedule with him. He supports multiple session formats, so many people find it possible to keep therapy going even with busy schedules.

How attachment and emotion-focused methods translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people notice patterns in how they connect and react to others. Online sessions can use this work to reduce fear and build clearer ways of asking for support in relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting each person where they are. In virtual sessions this means the therapist follows the client's pace, reflects feelings, and helps set goals that feel realistic.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on helping people identify and shift strong emotional responses in relationships. It can be used online to practice new ways of talking about hard feelings and improving closeness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust methods over time. This is a collaborative process to find what fits best.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules, handle sudden needs between meetings, and maintain regular contact when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep momentum while adapting exercises and tools for remote use.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
