About Ebony

Ebony Wright is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship concerns. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Her style is interactive and motivational, and she treats each person with respect and dignity.

Ebony trained at Emory and Henry College for her bachelor’s in psychology and completed a Master of Social Work at Savannah State University. She holds LCSW credentials in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Pennsylvania. Over the years she has worked in hospitals, schools, community mental health centers, military settings, in-home care, nursing homes, and assisted and independent living facilities.

She has experience supporting people with depression, anxiety, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. Her broader focus areas include ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, career stress, caregiving strain, and issues related to abandonment and attachment.

In sessions she uses practical methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered work. That means sessions often involve learning skills, experimenting with new behaviors, and talking through difficult emotions to find workable changes.

Ebony emphasizes collaboration. She asks about goals, offers clear options, and helps people try small changes between sessions. This approach is aimed at steady progress and better day-to-day coping.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Ebony draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people clarify values, accept difficult feelings, and try practical changes. ACT focuses on what matters most and encourages small acts that align with those values. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and offers hands-on tools to change unhelpful habits.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers conversations on the person's experience and priorities. That approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at a pace the client finds comfortable. Together with the client she tailors which methods to use based on goals and personal preferences, and she encourages collaboration about what feels most useful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, support steady check-ins during life transitions, and allow skill practice between meetings. A therapist and client will discuss how to structure sessions, what to focus on, and how to use short exercises between appointments to reinforce progress.
