Background and approach
She emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about grief, intimacy worries, parenting strain, sleep problems, and anger without feeling rushed. Clayton draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities and Narrative Therapy to help reframe life events.
Solution-Focused techniques are used for setting small, achievable goals and tracking progress over time. She has particular experience related to adoption and foster care concerns, codependency, divorce and separation, forgiveness work, veteran and armed forces issues, and women’s issues. These focus areas are woven into sessions when relevant to a person’s situation and goals.
Ebony holds an LCSW license in Nevada and offers clear, straightforward guidance during sessions. Her style is practical and warm, aimed at helping people make steady changes they can use in daily life.
Therapeutic approaches that work well online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following a person's priorities. The therapist creates space for someone to talk through what matters most and helps shape sessions around those concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize listening and meaning, skills-based CBT work, or focused goal-setting, and they adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals via video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat or text work well for brief check-ins or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while keeping therapy flexible and consistent.
