Ebonii "gets me" and can challenge and support me at the same time. Her insight is astounding. Ebonii's follow up is great - providing goals, accountability, and encouragement. I have already recommended the site and Ebonii specifically.

More about Ebonii

  • 8 years' experience

  • LPC

Well hello, and welcome to step one of the therapeutic process - finding a therapist. Take a deep breath, and trust your gut. My name is Ebonii Nelson, and I'm an LPC in Texas. In my work, my goal is to enable my clients to live in the here-and-now, take notice of their own experiences, and harness the power that already resides inside in order to create change and live happier, healthier lives. I believe life is about two things: loving and learning, and through our work together clients will be encouraged to reveal and learn from what was or has been, in order to heal and love what is.

I am a generalist practitioner, and my style combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and psychodynamic counseling methods. I specialize in working with those aged 19 - 36, however I am committed to helping all individuals. I treat a variety of concerns including anxiety, stress management, goal setting, depression, relationship issues, and self-esteem. My approach to working with clients is straightforward and supportive in order to assist clients in becoming aware of what they are doing, how they are doing it, and how they change themselves, and at the same time, learning to accept and value themselves.

Finding the perfect therapist fit is not always easy, but well worth the initial angst. Scary as it may be, you deserve to rediscover your best self, and I look forward to the opportunity to create the safe space that will enable you to reemerge a healthier you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Dentists, Hair dressors, and Therapists- the three professionals that once you have found a good one, do not let them go. I had been searching for a good therapist for years and I found a fantastic one I could meet in the comfort of my own home. Ebonii has mastered the art of balancing space for you to self discover but also knowing when to give you a prod for when you get stuck. My thought processes have tremendously improved with her guidance. 10/10 recommendation

Ebonii is the best counselor I’ve had in my entire life. She’s very understanding, but will definitely call me out to help me improve myself. She’s also very professional and I feel that she genuinely cares about my well being.

I had an amazing experience working with Ebonii. She listened to my goals and my values, she was honest about contradictions between my thoughts and actions, and she offered tools help me deal with grief , partner conflicts, and depression. Ebonii initiated check ins when I was busy or missed a session, and helped me stay on track. I think my favorite part of working with Ebonii was that her communication alway felt honest and sincere; laughing, providing truthful feedback, offering kind words, and really taking the time to get to know me and my objectives instead of providing some blanket advice or a lecture. I would recommend her wholeheartedly as a care provider!

Ebonii is amazing! She is smart, patient, and so helpful. She calls me out on my stuff when I am wrong, and supports me when I am right! She helps me see things through a different lens. She is patient with my processing time but cuts to the chase when needed. She's honest but not demeaning and always my voice of reason. Highly recommend!

Ebonii is very thoughtful and caring! She keeps our sessions lighthearted without avoiding tough issues we may need to address. I always feel heard, respected, and safe in our sessions. Consistently, I leave a session feeling empowered. I have already recommended Ebonii to colleagues seeking a new therapist! 10/10 She's the best!

Miss Nelson is so nice and really funny! She reminds me a lot of one of my close friends. I am so happy that we got matched up because sometimes looking for a new counselor can be a total fail. I am so happy that I am back in therapy, talking to someone really helps.

I've just had 1 live session with Ms. Ebonii, but I really appreciated her guidance and conversation style. It was like a wave of relief afterwards I will be continuing my therapy with her!

I used to be nervous before any counseling session, afraid of what the counselor would think but now I look forward to our sessions. Ebonii really helps me clear out my head and steer me back to the right path for better mental health. Any time I feel like I’m heading back down the negative path I think of what Ebonii has explained to me and it helps a lot.

Reviewed July 2019

I have only had one session so far but I can tell Ebonii is genuine. I can tell she actually wants to help, and that itself, makes me feel better than I did before signing up for counseling. Thank you Ebonii!
