About Us
Transforming Lives Through Care
Welcome Message from Founder
As a Ph.D. I understand how difficult, lonely, transformative, awesome, and exhilarating the journey can be. Sienna and Slate Co. was created to give you what I wish I had as a student and new professional–a guided space to think and write and to work out the stuff that I couldn’t quite articulate.

Review
What Our Clients Say
I’ve been using the journal to focus and advance my research as a new professional. I wish I had this resource as a graduate student. I love the prompts because I hate staring at a blank page thinking of what to write. I’ve even started a small journaling group with other writers to hold ourselves accountable.
Shari Gutmann
I strongly encourage students to use a research journal (I got the Introspection Journal). Utilizing a journal will allow you to have a place for periodic brain dumps as you center your research. Be sure to do a deep dive in your reading and be prepared to write, change course, and write again.
Donald Beck
Utilize a research journal to articulate your ideals, goals, methods, and theories for your paper before you even begin writing. We appreciate Dr. McClish and her passion to help students like us work through the emotional and technical phases of research. Get the journal, it was worth it! Believe me.
