About Ebony

Ebony McCray-Holmes is a Florida-based licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people through major life transitions, relationship challenges, and career-related stress. Her work aims to help clients strengthen self-understanding and rebuild toward clearer goals.

She uses a collaborative, solution-focused style that emphasizes practical steps and small changes clients can try between sessions. Conversations often center on better communication, setting boundaries, and managing strong emotions like anger and grief. The tone in sessions is straightforward and supportive.

Ebony has substantial experience working with trauma-related concerns and family dynamics. She helps people navigate issues such as abandonment, blended family problems, and family of origin conflicts. Workplace stress, feelings of isolation, and difficulties common to young adults are also within her practice focus.

She often supports people dealing with mood concerns including depression and bipolar-related struggles, and she addresses anxiety, stress, and self-esteem challenges. Parenting strain and questions around life purpose and career direction are frequent topics clients bring to sessions.

Her approach is grounded in helping clients identify small, achievable goals and build coping skills that fit day-to-day life. Clients collaborate with her to shape a plan that reflects their values and practical needs.

How Solution-Focused Work Translates Online

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying small, achievable goals and steps to reach them. Sessions focus on concrete changes clients can make between meetings, which helps people see progress quickly and stay motivated. This approach is useful for concerns like workplace stress, communication problems, and navigating life transitions.

The therapist also uses collaborative conversations to build stronger coping skills for anxiety, grief, and trauma-related issues. That means the therapist and client set priorities together and try strategies that match the client's daily life and responsibilities. Progress is measured by what feels different to the client, not by long lists of techniques.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out whether solution-focused methods or another direction better fits the client's goals and preferences. This is a team effort that adjusts as needs change.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available online or in-person options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss logistics and timing with the therapist when you schedule to choose what works best.
