About Ebony

Ebony Brushbreaker is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Nevada with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She also addresses related stresses like abandonment, body image, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and money problems.

Her background includes social work roles in medical and long-term care settings. That experience shaped how she helps people manage chronic pain, medical transitions, and end-of-life concerns. She also draws on time supporting adults with complex medical needs in hospice and home health contexts.

In sessions she uses practical, evidence-based approaches. She incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. Conversations focus on behaviors, thoughts, and everyday routines rather than jargon.

Ebony emphasizes culturally informed care and brings her Indigenous background into clinical thinking. That perspective influences how she talks about identity, community, and meaning. It also informs work with people of color who want their cultural context included in treatment.

Her style is direct and focused on real-life problems like communication, impulsivity, isolation, and caregiving stress. She helps people identify manageable steps, practice new skills, and track small changes. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate behavior. It focuses on values and small committed actions that move life in a chosen direction and can help with depression and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking patterns and improve mood and daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing emotion, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful for impulsivity and strong mood swings.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels workable in daily life. Together they will try methods and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into busy schedules, handling brief check-ins during a break, or avoiding travel time. Online work still centers on practicing concrete skills between meetings and applying strategies to everyday situations. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and DBT exercises to virtual sessions so clients can build routines and track progress.
