About Ebony

Ebony Wright is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of experience. She is licensed in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Pennsylvania and provides care to adults who are managing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and parenting challenges.

She writes plain talk with a focus on practical steps. Sessions are interactive and motivational, and she uses solution-focused work to help people sort through immediate problems. She encourages people to describe what is happening at home and at work so sessions can focus on specific next steps.

Wright draws from several approaches when helping people make changes. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and guide action. Emotion-focused and dialectical strategies are folded in when emotion regulation and relationships need direct attention.

Her background includes work in military, school, community mental health, in-home care, hospital settings, and long-term care facilities. She has experience supporting adults through bereavement, adjustment after life changes, and the stress of caregiving and family conflict.

In sessions she treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life. That means practical planning, short-term tools, and collaborative problem solving. People often leave sessions with a clear small step to try between meetings.

She completed a Bachelor of Psychology at Emory and Henry College and a Master of Social Work from Savannah State University. Her practical experience across settings informs how she helps people manage day-to-day challenges at home and work.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online work fits

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values. It is useful for coping with life changes, anxiety, and when someone feels stuck.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress related to parenting or relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your goals, preferences, and current challenges and suggest approaches that fit. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as priorities shift.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also allow for flexible scheduling around caregiving or work demands. Ask about formats and session length so they match your routine and circumstances.
