About Ayana

Ayana Lewis is a Christian therapist who focuses on supporting Black and African-American women experiencing anxiety and depression. She helps clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or trapped in routines that sap energy and joy, guiding them toward clearer goals and healthier coping strategies.

Ayana combines mindfulness practices with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused techniques, and a person-centered approach to help clients notice the present moment, identify limiting beliefs, and replace unhelpful patterns. Her work emphasizes practical skills for grounding and emotional regulation alongside exploration of the thoughts that keep people from moving forward.

She holds the credentials LCSW and CSW - LCSW meaning Licensed Clinical Social Worker and CSW indicating a clinical social work credential - and she encourages clients to view seeking help as an important first step. Ayana frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at building resilience, setting actionable goals, and creating coping tools that support long-term well-being.

Approaches and Online Care That Meet You Where You Are

Client-centered therapy centers the client's own goals and experience, offering a supportive space where the therapist follows the client's lead to build insight and self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing practical strategies to change thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple skills for grounding in the present moment and reducing rumination, which can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. Ayana works collaboratively with each person to consider their needs, preferences, and goals, and she adjusts techniques over time so the approach aligns with what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it possible to schedule support around work, family, or other commitments and to continue progress even when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods to provide focused, evidence-informed work in a format that suits each client's life.
