About Ebony
Ebony Shoemo helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. She works with clients facing trauma, parenting stress, anger, ADHD, depression, and relationship strain. Her tone is direct and practical, aimed at parents and adults who want steady support.
Ebony holds a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University and is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, in Georgia. She has five years of clinical experience in community mental health and school-based settings.
How Ebony works
That background means she is familiar with crisis work, trauma responses, and everyday family challenges. In sessions she centers the person in front of her. Clients lead the work while she offers clear tools and skills.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change unhelpful thinking and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build values-based living and coping skills. Practical techniques are part of her approach. She may introduce breathing and relaxation exercises, short goal-focused plans, or communication strategies for tense situations.
The focus is on useful steps you can try between sessions. Ebony is a veteran and a parent, and she brings that life experience into her practice. She understands first responder and veteran issues, multicultural concerns, and the strain that caregiving can create.
Her aim is to help people find the pieces needed for change and to move toward steadier functioning.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It’s often useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes make decision-making hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce worry and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so the person leads the pace and goals of therapy.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend strategies. That collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as needs change and new challenges arise.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues and longer conversations, while phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or work around bandwidth limits. Live chat and text are useful for brief updates, check-ins between sessions, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options can make it simpler to keep consistent progress despite busy schedules.
