Ebony Brown, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ebony!

I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, PTSD, depression, self-esteem issues, suicidal ideation, grief, and trauma. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can heal and grow.

My focus

I'm most comfortable treating individuals with depression, anxiety, Borderline Personality Disorder, Bipolar, Autism, PTSD, and ADHD. I work with all populations and adapt my approach to meet you where you are.

My approach

I build trust through transparency and a supportive, non-judgmental approach. I draw from Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, DBT, and Crisis Intervention to tailor treatment to your unique needs.

My communication style

I provide a soft, gentle tone and create a safe environment where you can speak openly and vulnerably. I listen without judging or interrupting, offer insight to help you process feelings, and provide tasks to consider between sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I faced trauma in my own life, which fueled my passion for helping others heal. I'm driven by the importance of human connection and the positive results I see when individuals achieve their goals and break unhealthy patterns.

My goals for you

I empower you to create S.M.A.R.T. goals and select objectives you wish to achieve. We work together to set realistic goals that serve as a roadmap for overcoming challenges and achieving meaningful change in your life.

Our first session

The first session focuses on building rapport and easing any discomfort you may feel. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself. We'll discuss what needs or issues you'd like to address and explore what has worked or not worked in the past.
