About Ebony
Ebony Clayton, LCSW, brings a narrative-informed, person-centered approach to therapy. She meets people where they are and helps them tell the stories that shape their feelings and choices. Her style is direct, compassionate, and focused on practical steps toward feeling better.
Ebony draws on 10 years of experience helping people cope with anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship strain. She also supports those navigating grief, parenting challenges, sleep problems, intimacy concerns, anger, and career stress.
Background and approach
Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care issues, codependency, divorce and separation, forgiveness, veteran and armed forces issues, and women's issues. In sessions she blends Narrative Therapy with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches. That means she listens to how a person's story influences mood and behavior, then uses conversational tools to test those stories and try new ways of thinking.
Sessions are shaped around each person's needs and goals rather than a fixed script. Expect practical, short-term strategies and space for deeper reflection. Ebony emphasizes the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people set small, achievable goals.
She uses empathy and a nonjudgmental stance to create steady progress over time. Her practice integrates life factors beyond symptoms, including spiritual and physical concerns when clients bring them up. Based in Nevada, Ebony works in English and applies ten years of clinical experience to help people find clearer direction and renewed confidence.

Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches work online
Ebony uses Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. That approach helps bring clarity to patterns that keep someone stuck and opens space for alternative, more helpful narratives. Client-Centered Therapy provides warm, nonjudgmental listening so clients can explore feelings and values at their own pace while feeling accepted.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify specific thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety or low mood. CBT makes it possible to try small experiments between sessions and track what changes. Together these approaches let clients both make sense of their life story and practice concrete steps toward feeling better.
Finding the right fit is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to choose which approaches suit their goals and preferences and will adapt methods over time based on progress. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short reflections between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible for people juggling work, parenting, or other responsibilities.
