About Me
Your Counselor
Welcome! I am Mandy Ebner and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor and a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor. I graduated with an undergraduate degree from Southwest Missouri State University and later received my Master's degree from the University of North Texas.
I have been a counselor for over 2 decades and have worked in medical and academic settings prior to beginning private practice in 2021. I am skilled in Person Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Child-Parent Relationship Therapy, and Yoga.
One of my favorite quotes by Viktor Frankl is "between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is the power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom." I believe counseling creates the space to see where our power is. Most of us live the bulk of our lives on autopilot until that isn't working anymore. It takes slowing down, pausing, and reflecting to increase awareness to patterns that are no longer supporting us. I will be with you in that pause, providing support and guidance.
I use a variety of theoretical frameworks to support my clients. I also believe strongly in the mind-body connection and incorporate breathing, meditation, and movement into sessions.
