Ms. Ayala is a Licensed Professional Counselor and AZBHE board certified supervisor. I specialize in adolescents from ages 13 and up, young adult, and older adult population. My treatment areas include trauma, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, anger management, stress management, and sex trafficking. Treatment modalities include up to but not all CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, Reality therapy, motivational interviewing, harm reduction, and choice therapy.
I believe while our minds carry our emotional stress, our bodies do, too. We store trauma and stress in our bodies and I am looking forward to helping you to reprocess and release that trauma. What is trauma, exactly? It is any stressor that occurs in a sudden and forceful way and is experienced as overwhelming. My passion is helping my clients resolve deeper problems hidden beneath the current patterns. Whatever has you feeling stuck, I am looking forward to be a source of energy and direction as you choose to become unstuck. I am passionate about exploring your story with you, at your own pace, with the strengths, insights, and spirituality that are important to you. I provide a safe place to be heard and understood, supportive listening, thoughtful questions, the sharing of insights, exploration of ideas, an opportunity to explore mindfulness, and practical suggestions. It brings me great joy to empower my clients to discover and foster their innate strengths while providing help to grow their tool box.
