I have a bachelor's of Arts Degree, double majoring in Social Services and Religious Studies, a Master of Arts Degree in Psychology and the degree of Master of Social Work, from Cleveland State University.


I believe in a holistic approach to mental health. This means that all aspects of a person are included and considered in our work together. I assist those I work with in a variety of areas including, but not limited to:

Anxiety

Stress management

Depression

Grief and loss

Life transitions (including becoming an empty nester, divorce, retirement, aging with meaning)

Management of health issues (particularly pain and chronic health challenges)

Trauma (including religious trauma, sexual abuse and post-traumatic stress disorder)

If you've been carrying something heavy for a long time, whether that's past trauma, depression that won't lift, anxiety that's hard to shake, or a complicated family dynamic, you're not alone. I work with adolescents (13 and up) and adults navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and the kinds of life experiences that don't fit into a tidy box. After 15 years running a community clinic, I've sat with just about every story a person can bring into a room. There's nothing you need to soften before walking through the door. Outside of session, I spend most of my time with my wife and 2 daughters.

Ajalaa Powers

Ajalaa Powers

Therapist

Virtual • North Olmsted, OH


Hi hi, I’m Ajalaa!


I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who works with adults and older teens (17+) navigating the very real, sometimes messy parts of life — relationships, identity, big life changes, chronic illness, anxiety, feeling stuck, or those “I have no idea what I’m doing right now” seasons.


If the idea of therapy feels a little awkward or intimidating, you’re definitely not alone. You don’t need to walk into my office with the perfect words, a list of goals, or even know exactly what’s bothering you. Just walk in as you, and we can figure the rest out together.... (that's my favorite part)!


My style is warm, down-to-earth, collaborative, and very much human. Therapy with me isn’t about sitting across from someone who just nods and asks, “And how does that make you feel?” for 50 minutes. We’ll talk, laugh when it’s appropriate, sit with the hard stuff when we need to, and work together to actually understand what’s going on beneath the surface.
