"Creating Positive Change One Individual At A Time"
​
My name is Ayanna Swan and I'm thrilled to be the Administrative Assistant at Renewal, Growth, & Healing. My journey has been a unique blend of academics, athletics, and a genuine passion for client care.
​
I proudly represented both The Ohio State University and VCU in NCAA Division I Volleyball, balancing the intensity of sports with my academic pursuits. I earned my associate's degree in Behavioral Sciences from Richard Bland College of William & Mary, laying the foundation for my interest in understanding human behavior. Later, I graduated from VCU with a bachelor’s degree in Sports Psychology, merging my love for sports with the intricacies of the human mind.
​
Over the past two years, I've had the privilege of working in administrative roles, and I genuinely find joy in client interaction. My passion for client care in a mental health setting is deeply rooted in the belief that genuine connection and empathy are powerful tools in promoting healing and well-being. I find immense fulfillment in being the first face clients see when they enter our office, aiming to create a welcoming and supportive environment. Each interaction is an opportunity to contribute positively to someone's mental health journey! I understand the importance of active listening, patience, and compassion in providing the necessary support and reassurance for individuals facing mental health challenges. My goal is to foster a sense of understanding and trust, ensuring that every client feels heard and valued throughout their therapeutic process. In this ever-evolving field, I am committed to continually learning and growing to enhance the quality of care I provide and make a meaningful impact on the lives of those seeking support and healing!
Away from the office, I'm a proud cat parent to two furry babies (feel free to reach out for pictures, I have plenty :) ! I have also played guitar for almost 5 years and plan on learning to play the electric bass very soon. I enjoy hiking, water sports, yoga, and anything to do with plants and flowers!
I'm excited to bring my diverse experiences and passion for people to Renewal, Growth, & Healing. Let's make every client’s experience here exceptional together!
Hi, I'm Ayanna!
