About Ayanna

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, with ten years of experience in Texas. Ayanna Sidle focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, career issues, and depression. She practices from a faith-informed perspective and uses several evidence-based methods listed below.

Ayanna uses client-centered work to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She also brings cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thinking and habits. Mindfulness practices and narrative listening are part of her approach when people want tools to manage moment-to-moment stress.

Sessions aim to identify small, practical steps people can take between meetings. Motivational interviewing is used to uncover what actually motivates someone and to support clear next steps. This can include short experiments or changes to daily routines to see what helps.

She describes the space as nonjudgmental and asks questions that clarify values and goals. Meetings focus on concrete problems and real-life choices rather than abstract theories. Progress is tracked through specific goals and visible, measurable changes where possible.

People who prefer faith-informed conversation will find that faith can be included when requested. Ayanna encourages people to try methods and reflect on what works, then adapt the plan together. To begin, follow the site's booking steps to match and schedule an initial session.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client's concerns. In this approach the therapist asks open questions, restates what is important, and supports the person in weighing options. It helps when someone needs space to sort feelings and decide priorities.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions typically include practical skill-building exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking. This is useful for stress, anxiety, low mood, and patterns that get in the way of daily life.

Mindfulness techniques teach simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity. These tools are brief and can be practiced between sessions to manage immediate stress or intrusive thoughts.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to keep using.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the specific session formats offered when you schedule.
