About Ebony
Ebony Benjamin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 28 years of experience helping adults navigate hard moments. She presents therapy as a practical, supportive partnership. Her style is down-to-earth and straightforward, aimed at making change feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
Ebony focuses on everyday pressures that can make life feel unsteady. She works with people dealing with relationship strain, family concerns, mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and compassion fatigue.
How Ebony works
She also helps with career stress, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. In sessions she uses practical methods from approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. Conversation and collaboration guide how goals are set and how steps are chosen.
Her aim is to help people build strategies they can use between meetings. Ebony draws on long experience with adults living with mental health and substance use challenges, and with caregivers facing ongoing stress. She emphasizes self-care as part of sustaining progress and models simple, real-life practices that fit busy schedules.
She works from Florida and provides services in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Online support options
Therapy approaches and what they offer online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions where someone wants to move forward despite difficult feelings. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist offers empathy and nonjudgmental support while clients set the pace and direction of their work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and uses concrete steps to change them. It can help with depression, mood disorders, and stress by teaching skills to manage unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences, and then try methods that fit. That plan can be adjusted over time as goals change or new challenges arise.
The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into busy weeks, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. For many people, remote sessions help them maintain consistency and apply new skills in day-to-day life. Licensed professionals adapt techniques from ACT, Client-Centered Therapy, and CBT to work over distance and help clients reach their goals.
