~A Place to Pause, Reflect, and Heal Hello, I'm Dr. Ebonee. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, struggling to keep up with relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help individuals manage anxiety, avoid burnout, and break free from cycles of trauma, stress, and self-doubt. Together, we can identify what’s not working and get you back to balance. My interest in spirituality and utilization of spiritually integrated psychotherapy (SIP), which is not tied to any specific religion, allows me to offer a holistic approach to healing that addresses the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. I emphasize trauma’s role in shaping core beliefs, psychosocial stressors, and generational patterns, recognizing its imprint on the central nervous system.

Let’s work together to build communication strategies, set boundaries, break cyclical trauma patterns, and foster self-worth for long-term stability. I’m excited to be on this journey with you!

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress, and challenges related to motivation and personal growth.

I strive to empower clients with practical tools and insight so they feel more in control of their lives, more connected to their values, and more capable of handling future challenges independently.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who believes therapy should feel like a safe, comfortable, and judgment-free space where you can be yourself and talk openly about what’s really going on. I’m down-to-earth, relatable, straightforward, and very solution-focused in my approach. I understand that life can get complicated, and sometimes you need a space where you can put everything on the table without worrying about being judged, criticized, or misunderstood. I’ll meet you where you are, listen to understand your experiences, and give you the space you need to process your thoughts and feelings. At the same time, I’m not a therapist who will simply sit back, nod my head, and tell you what you want to hear. When needed, I’ll ask the difficult questions, challenge you, help you recognize patterns, and encourage you to look at situations from a different perspective. Most importantly, I believe therapy should help you move forward. We’ll talk about the problem, but we’re also going to work together to figure out what you can realistically do about it. My goal is to help you gain insight, recognize your strengths, develop practical tools, and find solutions that actually make sense for your life.

Hi there, my name is Darrius. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Are you feeling overwhelmed or just plain stuck in life? I help people restructure their damaged relationships. Relationships are more than romantic interactions between two people. Relationships as I define it can be with anyone or anything that you exchange energy with. The biggest relationship that we struggle to understand and grow with is the person staring at us in the mirror each morning. No matter what relationship your struggling with ( work, home, family, yourself.) I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back.
