About Ebony
Ebony Brushbreaker uses practical, person-focused therapy to help people manage trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and mood concerns. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of experience in direct clinical care. Her style aims to make therapy feel straightforward and useful for everyday life.
Ebony combines several evidence-informed approaches to meet each person's needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and take values-driven action.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are employed when strong emotions or impulsive urges get in the way. She has worked across clinical settings and brings experience supporting people through grief, the effects of trauma and abuse, and LGBT-related concerns.
She also addresses issues such as body image, abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and relationship communication problems. Expect clear skills practice and focused conversation about what is most pressing. Ebony is based in Nevada and practices with attention to cultural background and life experience.
She seeks to meet people where they are and respect their values while working toward realistic goals. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. The aim is to leave each meeting with at least one concrete step to try between sessions.

Therapy approaches and online options that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values, which can be useful for grief, low mood, and motivation issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like depression or anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and impulsive urges so people can handle crises and rebuild stability.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to see which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust strategies as progress is made. Clients help set goals and choose which skills to practice between sessions.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions recreate a face-to-face conversation and allow for deeper discussion, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, skill coaching, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or health-related schedules while using the chosen therapeutic approaches.
