Daed Ayala

Daed Ayala

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Phoenix. I

work with children, adolescents, and adults in

English or in Spanish.

I believe therapy works best when it feels like a

partnership — we'll work together to understand

what's going on, identify what's getting in the way,

and find practical tools that help you move

forward. Whether you're dealing with anxiety,

depression, stress, life changes, or the effects of

past experiences, my goal is to help you build

confidence and strengthen coping skills.

I've worked in inpatient, outpatient, and nonprofit

settings, and I especially enjoy working with

children and adolescents. My hope is that therapy

feels like a place where you can show up as you

are and leave each session with something

meaningful to take with you.
