About Ebony
Ebony Clayton is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Nevada with ten years of practice. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting strain, sleep problems, intimacy issues, and anger.
She describes therapy as a practical process that links thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the main approaches she uses to help people notice how thoughts shape behavior.
Ebony also draws on client-centered and solution-focused methods. That means she listens for what matters most to each person and builds short-term, goal-oriented steps. Narrative techniques are used to examine how life stories and roles influence current struggles, including adoption and foster-care related issues when relevant.
Her work includes attention to life transitions such as divorce, separation, career shifts, and challenges tied to veteran and armed forces experiences. She also addresses codependency, forgiveness, infertility and post-adoptive concerns when these come up in sessions.
Ebony explains ideas in clear, everyday language and structures sessions around what each person needs. The focus is on practical changes people can try between meetings. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people clarify values and feel understood before making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to test new responses to anger, anxiety, and low mood. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and rewrites parts that hold them back, which can be helpful for issues like grief or adoption-related concerns.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide whether more structured CBT exercises, client-centered listening, or narrative exploration fits best. That choice is based on your goals, life context, and what you prefer to try first.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a weekday break or avoid travel time. They also allow focused, short check-ins or longer sessions depending on scheduling needs. Ultimately the aim is to use therapy methods in ways that suit everyday life and practical goals.
