Meet Ebonie Reed, LMFT

Ebonie Reed founded Peaceful Mind Counseling Center. In her words: “I became a therapist because I have a genuine passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges, experience healing, and create meaningful, lasting change. I opened Peaceful Mind Counseling Center to provide a safe, supportive space where individuals, couples, and families can feel heard, empowered, and equipped to improve their emotional well-being.

How Ebonie Reed Works With Clients

Therapy with Ebonie is a partnership. In the first sessions you’ll talk about what brings you in, what you want to change and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you’ll set goals and choose an approach that fits you, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

notice unhelpful thought patterns and practise new ways to respond.

Mindfulness-based approaches

build skills to stay present and calm the body when stress or worry rises.

Trauma-informed care

work at a pace that feels safe, with your sense of control respected throughout.

What You Can Expect in Therapy

A safe, non-judgmental space

So, you can speak openly without feeling rushed or judged.

A collaborative process

Instead of a fixed plan, you and your therapist decide on goals and pace together.

Respect for who you are

Culturally responsive care that honors your background, identity and values.

Practical tools

Coping skills you can use between sessions and also after therapy ends.

Why Our Therapy Is Online Only

All sessions at Peaceful Mind Counseling Center take place by secure, HIPAA-compliant video, so you can see a licensed therapist from home, work or anywhere in California. As a result, there’s no commute and no waiting room. Instead, we’ll send you a secure link and a reminder before each session.

Because our therapists are licensed in California, you need to be in the state during each session. Also, to learn more about how marriage and family therapists are trained, visit the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy.
