Ebony Harris
Welcome! My name is Ebony Harris, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of California and Nevada. As a therapist, it is a privilege to walk alongside my clients on their unique journey to overcome barriers that are preventing them from living their full potential.
I take pride in my role as a Therapist and truly believe THIS is what I was placed on this earth to do.
I am passionate about empowering my clients to heal and live authentically. "One chapter doesn't tell the full story Let's continue writing your story!"
First session
During the first session, I look forward to knowing more about my clients, them knowing more about me, exploring what brings them into treatment, what their expectations are, and what they plan to achieve during our time together. I believe that every client is the expert about themselves, therefore treatment planning is done utilizing a collaborative approach.
Strengths
I provide a safe and nonjudgemental environment for my clients to openly explore their personal experiences, thoughts, and feelings. My communication style is warm, empathetic, transparent, and compassionate. Supporting individuals through the tough waters life may bring and also watching the growth and healing are what drive me to do the work I do. I take pride in my role as a Therapist and truly believe THIS is what I was placed on this earth to do. Every client, every session is a new opportunity to heal and learn the tools necessary to live an authentic and peaceful life.
Ideal clients
I have experience working with youth, children, adults, diverse and multicultural populations, with diagnoses/issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, personality disorders, dual diagnosis, anger management, relationship stress, communication, and family issues. I am EMDR trained, certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Thoughts (weather helpful or unhelpful) fuel our emotions and behaviors. I have experience with assisting clients navigate their un-helpful thinking styles and learn the tools to challenge and combat these thoughts, in order to live a more peaceful authentic life.
EMDR
Traumatic Memories can be very distressful, impacting your overall functioning. I am trained in EMDR, which helps clients heal from emotional distress and the symptoms associated, that are due traumatic experiences, so they can live a peaceful life.
Eclectic
My therapeutic approach depends on my client's needs. I find that one size does not fit all. therefore, my style is more eclectic. I have experience working with modalities such as Motivational Interviewing, Seeking Safety, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solutions Focused, Client-Centered, and Strength Based.
