Hey there! I’m Dr. Ebony!

Dr. Ebony Butler is a licensed psychologist, entrepreneur, speaker, and creator of My Therapy Cards®, a collection of mental health tools designed to help people better understand themselves and get to the core of their struggles.

With over a decade of experience in mental health, I am passionate about making psychology accessible, relatable, and culturally relevant. My work challenges the idea that recognizing a problem is the same as understanding it. Through comprehensive psychological assessments, mental health education, and thought-provoking conversations, I help people move beyond symptoms, labels, and surface-level awareness to uncover the beliefs, patterns, and experiences influencing their lives.

As the founder of The Center for Creating Change, I am expanding the ways people access and engage with mental health resources. My work includes comprehensive psychological evaluations, educational programming, and the development of evidence-informed tools and clinical methodologies that support individuals, mental health professionals, and organizations.

My signature product, My Therapy Cards®, reflects my belief that meaningful change begins with deeper understanding. Combining evidence-based psychological practices with a unique framework for self-exploration, the cards encourage people to ask better questions, challenge familiar patterns, and develop greater clarity about themselves. My vision is to extend this approach through clinical curricula, professional training, organizational partnerships, and licensing opportunities that bring these tools to more people, both inside and outside traditional therapy settings.

Known for my approachable style, clinical insight, and ability to make complex psychological concepts understandable, I bring together education, cultural awareness, storytelling, and curiosity. Whether I am evaluating clients, speaking to audiences, educating clinicians, or developing new resources, her work centers on one belief:

Awareness is a starting point. Understanding is what creates the opportunity for meaningful change.

My Approach

I believe that people are more than their symptoms, diagnoses, or difficult experiences. My approach is rooted in helping individuals understand the full context of who they are, including their strengths, challenges, relationships, culture, experiences, and the stories they tell themselves about their lives.

I don't believe healing is about "fixing" people. I believe it is about increasing awareness, building insight, developing practical tools, and creating opportunities for people to reconnect with themselves in meaningful ways. My work is collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in the understanding that every person brings unique strengths and wisdom to the table.

At the heart of everything I do is a simple belief: when people feel seen, understood, and empowered, meaningful change becomes possible.

Accessibility

I also believe that knowledge should be accessible. Mental health concepts don't have to be wrapped in complicated language to be effective. Whether I'm explaining assessment results, facilitating a workshop, or creating resources like My Therapy Cards®, my goal is to make psychological insights practical, relatable, and useful in everyday life.

safe space

Whether I'm conducting a psychological evaluation, speaking to an audience, creating therapeutic tools, or working with professionals through coaching and consultation, I approach every interaction with curiosity, compassion, and authenticity. I strive to create spaces where people feel safe enough to be honest, challenged enough to grow, and supported enough to move forward.
