About Ebony

Ebony Clayton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Nevada who centers sessions on the whole person. She combines practical talk, clear steps, and a warm, nonjudgmental stance to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and sleep concerns. Her approach is grounded in listening first and then shaping sessions around what each person needs.

With ten years of experience, Ebony draws on client-centered methods and evidence-based tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. She pays attention to how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect, and uses that link to help people change unhelpful patterns. Narrative approaches are used too, helping people reframe their stories and make different choices.

Ebony also supports people through relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strain, and career stress. She has additional focus on adoption and foster care matters, codependency, divorce and separation, forgiveness, veteran and armed forces issues, and women's issues. Sleeping and rest problems are part of the concerns she addresses in sessions.

Sessions are shaped by the person in front of her rather than a fixed agenda. She emphasizes unconditional positive regard and a respectful, straightforward style. People can expect collaborative planning, small practical steps between sessions, and regular check-ins on progress.

To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Her Nevada license is listed as LCSW.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience, then shaping sessions around their needs and pace. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer thinking, and steady support as they try new behaviors.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and stress by practicing new ways of thinking and small behavioral steps.

Narrative Therapy helps people rewrite parts of their story that feel stuck or limiting. It can be useful when past events or identities make it hard to move forward, including concerns around adoption, loss, or major life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences, and adjust as progress is made. That collaborative process helps identify what feels most helpful and practical.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use therapeutic tools at home between sessions and practice new habits in real-life settings. Discuss format and scheduling during the matching and intake steps so sessions match everyday life and goals.
