How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and reflection so the therapist follows your lead and helps you clarify what matters most. This approach is useful for working through relationship concerns, grief, and identity or women's issues where being heard is a core need.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and uses practical exercises to change patterns. CBT works well for stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger by breaking problems into small, actionable steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ebony will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and she can mix approaches over time as needs change.

Online sessions give flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person work, phone sessions can be easier when video is not needed, and live chat or text-based messaging support brief check-ins or step-by-step guidance between meetings. These options make it easier to keep momentum and try new strategies in everyday life.
