About Ebony
Ebony Shoemo is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage strong emotions and stressful life shifts. She focuses on practical steps that make a difference day to day, especially when anger, anxiety, or trauma are involved. Her approach aims to give people tools they can use right away and goals they can track.
She earned a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Troy University and holds an LPC in Georgia.
Background and approach
Over five years she has worked in community mental health and in public schools, supporting children, adolescents, and adults from varied backgrounds. That experience shaped a straightforward style that values each person’s expertise about their own life. In sessions she leans on client-centered principles, inviting people to lead the work while she offers structure and evidence-based techniques.
Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and practice new responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people take meaningful action aligned with their values even when emotions feel intense. Ebony also draws on practical skills such as relaxation training, social skills coaching, and solution-focused steps to address immediate concerns.
She pays attention to the whole person and to problems that come from trauma, stress, ADHD, or changes in family life. Outside of work she is a wife, mother, and veteran who enjoys hiking, exercise, and quiet movie nights with her family. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process and invites people to begin with one clear step toward change.

Approaches that fit online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values; it can be useful for anger, anxiety, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead so conversations are grounded in what matters most to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors, which can reduce panic, low mood, and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try first. Sessions often blend approaches and adjust over time based on the client's goals and what proves most helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversation, phone can be a simpler check-in when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text work well for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make therapy easier to fit into busy lives and help maintain continuity when routines change.
