About Ebony
Ebony McCray-Holmes is a Florida licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, parenting pressures, and anger. She focuses on helping clients understand their patterns and develop practical skills to manage emotions and stress.
She draws on trauma-informed perspectives to address self-esteem and family-of-origin issues. Sessions often focus on communication skills and clearer boundaries so daily interactions feel less reactive. She also helps people who are navigating workplace stress, career shifts, and young adult transitions.
Her described approach centers on collaboration. She and the client identify small, concrete goals. Sessions aim to build emotional regulation and problem-solving skills that clients can use between meetings.
Ebony pays particular attention to women facing life changes and feelings like isolation, shame, or abandonment. She works to reduce patterns that keep those feelings active and to strengthen self-directed coping and self-respect.
Clients can expect straightforward work on practical strategies, such as communication techniques and steps to reduce angry reactions. The emphasis is on clear steps, short-term gains, and gradual improvements that fit into everyday life.

How Solution-Focused Work Translates to Online Sessions
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on specific, achievable changes rather than lengthy analysis. It looks at current strengths and past successes and uses them to build steps forward. This approach can help with anger, relationship conflicts, and day-to-day stress by breaking problems into manageable tasks.Although Solution-Focused Therapy is the primary listed approach, the therapist also uses trauma-informed perspectives to recognize how past events affect present reactions. That perspective helps when anger is tied to family dynamics, abandonment, or shame. The therapist will discuss which methods fit a person's goals and adjust the focus as necessary.
Finding the right way of working is collaborative. The therapist and client look at needs, goals, and preferences together and try approaches that feel practical. This cooperative process helps decide whether short goal-focused work or longer-term support is a better match.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for scheduling around work or parenting demands. Different formats also let people choose shorter check-ins or camera-off conversations depending on what helps them participate.
