Ajani Mcmullen-Williams

Ajani Mcmullen-Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also focuses on sexuality, sexual dysfunction, LGBT issues, divorce and separation, men’s issues, and women’s issues. She brings five years of experience to her practice in Delaware and offers a direct, respectful approach to care.

Ajani keeps sessions practical and client-centered. She listens first, then helps set clear goals together. She uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and actions. She also draws on emotionally focused work to address patterns in relationships and on motivational interviewing to support change.

Her approach aims to consider each person’s cultural background, identity, and life story. That means therapy addresses how social factors shape feelings and choices. Ajani emphasizes a nonjudgmental space where people can name struggles and try new ways of coping.

Her training includes work in community mental health in New York City, where she supported people with high needs and limited access to services. That background informs a practical focus on what can help day to day. Sessions focus on skills, understanding patterns, and setting achievable steps toward goals.

People who are exploring relationship challenges, sexual concerns, or identity-related stress may find her approach helpful. To start, she asks about what matters most to the client and builds treatment from there.

Online approaches and how they help

Ajani uses methods that focus on thoughts, feelings, and relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, focuses on how emotions shape interactions and helps people change recurring negative patterns in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and pace, with the therapist following the client’s lead to build trust and understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Ajani works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She may combine tools from different approaches and checks in regularly to adjust plans based on what is working.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or make it simpler to attend when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use different approaches in remote sessions to focus on skills-building, emotional work, and relationship patterns without changing the core of the work.
