How her approaches translate to online care
Ayana combines client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to address everyday struggles. Client-centered therapy means the therapist listens without judgment and helps clients identify what matters most to them, which can help with stress, relationship concerns, and parenting questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Ayana works collaboratively to choose approaches based on a person’s goals, preferences, and what feels practical. That means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make regular contact easier to fit into a busy week. Video allows face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a quicker check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people share updates or short concerns between sessions. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on building skills and making steady progress.
