About Ayanna

Ayanna Sidle is a licensed professional counselor who brings ten years of clinical experience to her work. She offers a calm presence and a nonjudgmental approach to conversations about stress, anxiety, relationships, career concerns, depression, and self esteem. Ayanna emphasizes practical steps people can try between sessions while also listening to what matters most to each person.

She blends client-centered therapy with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new patterns. Mindfulness practices are used to help with overwhelming feelings and to build steadiness in daily life. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or unsure how to begin changing habits and routines.

Ayanna aims to create an open space where clients can speak freely about worries and hopes. Sessions focus on small, realistic goals and on identifying what has worked in the past. Her work often centers on building confidence, clearer decision making, and managing stress in practical ways.

She holds LPC and LPCC credentials and provides services from Texas. Sessions are offered in English. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling based on her availability. Ayanna encourages people to take the first step when they are ready to try something different.

Her style is straightforward and supportive, with attention to each person’s goals. She helps people map out options and keep progress within reach, rather than promising quick fixes.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Ayanna uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting back what matters to you, and building goals based on your priorities; it helps when someone needs a respectful space to talk through worries. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior, and helps people try small experiments to change unhelpful habits and ease anxiety.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try an approach, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients are invited to shape the plan and give feedback as they go.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or making it easier to meet when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use these methods to focus on practical skills, mindful breathing, and planning steps that fit daily routines.
