About Ayanna
Ayanna Sidle is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, practicing in Texas with 10 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, career issues, and depression. She talks with people about what feels hard and helps them plan clear next steps.
She uses straightforward techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions are conversational and practical. She listens first, then helps people try small changes to see what works.
Ayanna draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts, feelings, and actions. She also uses client-centered listening to follow each person's priorities. Mindfulness ideas are used to build calm and attention in everyday moments.
Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach when people want to move toward specific goals like career changes or better routines. Narrative Therapy techniques help people reframe their stories and spot strengths they may have missed.
She describes therapy as a place to speak frankly about setbacks and to test new ways of responding. Sessions aim to be practical and skill-focused so people leave with concrete steps to try between meetings. To begin, clients complete an intake questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Ayanna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thinking patterns and test different behaviors. CBT sessions often involve setting clear, short-term goals and trying small experiments between meetings to see what changes. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting so a person identifies their priorities and decides the pace of work.Mindfulness Therapy is offered in brief practical exercises to increase focus and reduce reactivity. These techniques are taught in simple steps and can be practiced between sessions to support stress and anxiety management.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Ayanna will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on how well they fit the client's needs and preferences. She checks progress and changes plans when something is not helpful.
The site describes how to begin but does not specify session formats here. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or other methods are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time while keeping focused, skills-based sessions.
