    About Ajani

    Ajani Mcmullen-Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with five years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, intimacy concerns, and LGBTQ-related issues. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental, and she aims to make therapy feel safe and respectful for every person who comes in.

    Ajani began her career after graduating from NYU Silver School of Social Work and practiced in New York City community mental health. There she supported people with high needs and limited access to care, which shaped her practical, resource-minded approach. She uses methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to focus sessions on what matters to each client.

    Her style centers on meeting clients where they are. Sessions are shaped around a person's goals, cultural background, life history, and current challenges. Ajani describes her work as collaborative - she and the client decide what to try and how to measure progress.

    She also integrates Emotion-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are a concern. That can mean paying attention to emotions in the moment and practicing clearer communication skills between partners or for individuals.

    Ajani welcomes people across LGBTQ+ communities, people who are differently abled, and BIPOC clients. She also notes experience addressing divorce and separation, men's issues, women's issues, sexual health and sexuality, and sexual dysfunction. For anyone wondering how to begin, she asks that prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete the brief matching questionnaire.

  2. How her approaches fit into online therapy

    Ajani uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and build confidence to act on those choices. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure how to move forward.

    She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and the client's perspective to guide sessions. That approach helps people feel heard and understood while they sort through difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try practical behavior changes, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

    Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ajani will collaborate with each person to decide what methods to try based on needs, goals, and preferences. That means she may use one method at first and adjust as progress is made.

    If you are considering online therapy, confirm session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises, homework, and communication techniques so they work well in remote sessions and fit into everyday life.
