Ready to make a change but not sure where to start?

Are you finding it harder to maintain balance within yourself or your relationships?

Having trouble adjusting to life events or simply trying to figure out “what’s next?”

It’s okay to ask for help.

Treatment Approaches

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a treatment approach that helps the client recognize negative or unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and explore the ways that emotions and thoughts can affect actions. Many experts consider CBT to be the “gold standard” of psychotherapy.

  • Interpersonal Therapy

    Interpersonal Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on improving interpersonal functioning. It addresses current problems and relationships with the goal of improving communication, rather than focusing on childhood or developmental issues.

  • Solution Focused Therapy

    Solution Focused Therapy prioritizes the client’s present and immediate circumstances, rather than past experiences. By using a goal-oriented approach, the Therapist encourages the client to develop a vision of the near future and offers support as they identify the skills, resources, and abilities needed to achieve that vision successfully.

  • Person Centered Therapy

    Person Centered Therapy is a non-directive technique that allows the client to lead the direction of the therapy session, according to their concerns. The Therapist acts mainly as a sounding board and offers feedback, while serving as a source of support for the client.

  • Couples Counseling

    In Couples Counseling, the Therapist evaluates the couple's personal and relationship story as it is narrated, facilitating both de-escalation of conflict and the development of practical solutions. The Therapist provides the participants with tools to constructively express their needs, clarify and redefine their relationship with each other.

 

 

 

About Me

Welcome! My name is Eboni Williams and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) working with clients throughout California via telehealth. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Human Communication Studies from Howard University, my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Loyola Marymount University, and completed the licensing requirements set by the Board of Behavioral Sciences in the State of California.

I help people adjust to challenging life transitions, improve communication in their relationships, and find a sense of balance within themselves. I achieve this by utilizing a combination of Person Centered, Solution Focused, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help my clients make progress in the areas that are important to them. However, each client is unique, so I take great care in getting to know them and the styles they feel most comfortable with.

I enjoy working with clients who are experiencing change in their lives, whether it's a woman adjusting to motherhood, midlife or being newly single; a couple going through a rough patch in their relationship; or a young adult trying to juggle their personal life with a career and navigating new responsibilities. Many times, these issues can show up as Adjustment Disorders, Depression, or Anxiety. I have personally witnessed how untreated issues like these can affect an individual and those close to them—it’s one of the main reasons I believe I was called to this work. My empathy doesn’t just come from textbooks, but from real life experience.

My therapeutic approach is practical, down to Earth, and non-judgmental. I take pride in being described as calm and easy to talk to. It is important to me that my clients feel they can speak freely and honestly in our sessions, and know that I will be there to support them every step of the way.

The lotus is symbolic of enlightenment, self-regeneration and rebirth. Its characteristics are similar to the human condition—even when its roots are in the muddiest of waters, the lotus can still go on to produce a beautiful flower.
