She has nine years of clinical experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, addiction issues, and struggles with self-esteem. She emphasizes straightforward, practical work that supports change and growth.

She earned a Master’s in Clinical Psychology after completing a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice and then shifting careers to counseling. That background shapes a practical, results-focused approach to therapy. Iyana blends evidence-based ideas with a human-centered outlook to meet real-life needs.

Iyana uses cognitive methods to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking. She pairs this with humanistic behavioral ideas to highlight strengths, personal responsibility, and self-help. Sessions focus on identifying patterns and trying workable alternatives in everyday life.

Her style is direct but respectful. She encourages clients to take an active role in goal-setting and problem solving. Therapy often includes short exercises to practice between sessions and simple steps to reduce symptoms and build skills.

People who come to Iyana can expect clear explanations and down-to-earth guidance. She aims to help each person figure out what matters to them and to build realistic steps toward those goals.

How evidence-based methods translate to online therapy

Many of the approaches Iyana uses focus on changing thinking patterns and building on personal strengths. Cognitive techniques help people learn to notice and challenge negative thoughts so they can respond differently to stress and anxiety. Humanistic behavioral ideas emphasize a person’s strengths and practical actions, encouraging small, achievable changes that improve mood and relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels helpful. This collaborative process helps clients and the therapist find the best fit for their needs and preferences.

If you prefer remote sessions, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people find virtual sessions help them stay consistent with appointments and practice skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote use so progress continues between sessions.
