About Ayana

Motivational Interviewing is used to clarify what a person wants to change and build the motivation to try new strategies.
Ayana also attends to issues commonly raised by women and young adults, including body image, commitment concerns, communication problems, and self-love. She notes experience supporting people facing HIV / AIDS related concerns and seasonal mood changes.

Mindfulness practices teach simple grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and increase awareness in tense moments.She also uses solution-focused methods to set short-term, achievable steps between sessions and motivational interviewing to build commitment to change. Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative; she will work with each person to decide which approaches match their goals and preferences.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit brief check-ins into a busy day, reduce commuting time, or allow a session without being on camera if that feels better. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and mindfulness practices to remote sessions so clients can practice skills in everyday situations.
