Hi there, I'm Ayana!

My name is Dr. Ayana Ince and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (PsyD) based in Southern California working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults, adolescents, and first responders specializing in anxiety, depression, PTSD, work/school-related stress, anger management, and pain management. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients make progress and start feeling better.

My approach

My approach to therapy depends on the needs and goals of each client. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Both approaches help me and the client gain a shared understanding of their reality, goals, and motivation for change.

My focus

My style and approach are a good fit for adults, adolescents, and first responders who are dealing with the challenges of work, school, and social pressures. This often takes the form of anxiety, depression, and stress. I work with my clients to help them learn and build coping skills, problem-solving skills and develop confidence allowing them to feel better about themselves.

My communication style

My communication style is empathetic, open, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking about anything without judgment during sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I decided to become a clinical psychologist because I have always wanted to help others. I strive to help people overcome, process, and navigate through their challenges. I enjoy seeing clients achieve their personal goals.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting with clients is focused on collaborating to define the client's goals. This often starts by building rapport with each other, setting goals, and later tracking progress.

My first session with you

Our first session together will involve talking about how you have been feeling recently, and your reasons for seeking therapy. Our first session is about us connecting and building rapport so I can have an understanding of how to help support and guide you.
