About
Ayanna Mills is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Missouri with ten years of experience in the mental health field. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Central Missouri and a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University.
Her clinical work has included supporting people facing depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, challenges with self-esteem, experiences of abuse and trauma, career-related concerns, addictions, bipolar disorder, anger management, and a range of other diagnoses. She has also worked with clients from many different backgrounds, including members of the LGBT community and families dealing with conflict.
Ayanna’s therapeutic manner is empathic, genuine, and honest. A fellow therapist even nicknamed her “the rapport building therapist” because of her ability to connect with clients and foster trust in the counseling process. Her approach blends cognitive behavioral therapy, reality therapy, humanistic methods, and psychodynamic ideas, and she aims to meet clients where they are in their stages of change.
Holding a Missouri Licensed Professional Counselor credential (MO LPC 2019003930), Ayanna collaborates with clients through the often-difficult work of change and growth, accompanying them on the journey rather than expecting instant solutions. She looks forward to meeting prospective clients and is ready to begin when they are.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?
Many people wonder whether remote counseling can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that fits their schedules and comfort level, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or messaging within an app. This range of options makes it easier to keep consistent appointments and integrate therapy into a busy life.
Each therapist offering online care is a licensed professional, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they need a different fit. For many people, virtual therapy provides an accessible and effective route to addressing everyday mental health concerns and relationship issues.
