About Ebony
Ebony Clayton, LCSW offers a person-centered approach that emphasizes the whole person. She focuses on thoughts, feelings, and behavior to help people find balance in their emotional, spiritual, and physical lives. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental and she structures sessions around each person’s needs.
With ten years of experience, she supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, career concerns, grief, and family conflict. Adoption and foster care matters are a noted area of focus, including adoption-related and post-adoptive support.
Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the person’s perspective and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at the link between thoughts and actions. She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their stories and Solution-Focused Therapy to set practical goals and notice progress.
Sessions are guided by unconditional positive regard and an effort to tailor strategies to the client’s situation. She looks for practical steps a person can try between meetings and will adjust approaches as needs change. The overall aim is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and improved day-to-day functioning.

How these approaches shape online work
Ebony often blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online conversations. Client-Centered work means the therapist listens closely and follows the person’s lead, helping them name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviors and trying small experiments to change unhelpful habits.She also uses Solution-Focused ideas to set clear, short-term goals and track concrete steps forward. Together these approaches help with anxiety, mood shifts, relationship challenges, and adoption or foster care related concerns by turning concerns into manageable change efforts.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences, and history, and then recommend ways to proceed. If an approach isn’t working, it can be adapted so sessions remain useful and practical.
