About Ebony

Ebony Clayton, LCSW, offers a warm, person-centered approach to therapy. She centers conversations on whatever feels most pressing for the client and listens for the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Her style emphasizes respect, acceptance, and practical steps that clients can use between sessions.

She brings ten years of experience working with depression, anxiety, grief, and relationship concerns. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, infertility and post-adoptive challenges, codependency, divorce and separation, and women's issues. Her background includes work with veterans and armed forces issues as well.

Ebony uses Client-Centered Therapy as a foundation and combines it with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means sessions often mix listening and reflection with straightforward strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking. Narrative techniques can help people rewrite painful stories they carry about themselves.

She describes her view of health as whole-person focused, noting how physical, spiritual, and emotional areas affect each other. Sessions are shaped to match what each person needs in the moment. She aims to offer a nonjudgmental space and steady support while helping clients set clear, doable goals.

Ebony practices in Nevada and works in English. To begin, readers should use the site Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting each person where they are. In practice this means the therapist reflects what a client shares and follows the client's lead to build trust and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and uses simple experiments and skill practice to shift unhelpful patterns. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories and consider alternative, healthier meanings.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. Together they will try ideas, adjust methods, and decide which mix of listening, practical skills, and story work feels most effective.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments to match daily routines. It can also support shorter check-ins when a brief update is needed, or longer sessions when more work is required. The platform's session formats are not specified here, so confirm the available session options before booking to ensure they suit your schedule and needs.
