Let's Talk | Ebony S. Ellis, LCSW

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. Please continue reading below for further instructions on how to schedule a consultation session.

Info: The CAPS Let's Talk program provides easy access to informal + brief (20 minutes) consultation sessions with mental health professionals from UC Berkeley's Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS). Speaking with a therapist during Let’s Talk can help you access support, gain perspective, explore resources and options, and discuss how therapy might be helpful.

Disclaimer: Let’s Talk consultations are with mental health professionals, but they are not therapy sessions and do not constitute mental health treatment. Let’s Talk is not for urgent concerns. If you are in crisis or need immediate support, please call CAPS at (510) 642-9494. If CAPS is closed, please call the CAPS after hours support line at 855-817-5667.

How to Schedule a Virtual Let’s Talk Visit:

1. Please sign-up for a 20-minute time-slot by providing your name and e-mail. If you prefer not to leave your full name please feel free to leave initials, first name only or a pseudonym.

2. In the comment section, please provide the phone number at which you can be reached and designate whether you prefer a phone call or a Zoom video or Zoom audio visit.

Once you complete the above steps, you are scheduled for a Virtual Let’s Talk Visit and you can expect the following:

1. I will contact you at the designated time (a phone call will be from a blocked number).

2. If you requested a Zoom video or Zoom audio consult, please use the following link:

ZOOM ID: 681 736 0270
* Please wait for me to start the meeting.

Lastly, if you are no longer able to make your appointment, canceling the slot is important as it will make the consultation session available to another student.

Thank you and I look forward to connecting with you.
