Keyayanna is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA) in North Carolina, a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) through the NBCC, and a Level I & II Reiki Practitioner trained by the International Center for Reiki Training (ICRT).
Her therapeutic approach integrates cognitive awareness with mindfulness-based practices, helping clients understand their internal world while reconnecting with themselves without judgment.

She specializes in helping adults reconnect with themselves through cognitive, mindfulness, and integrative mind‑body modalities.
Her background as a regional flight attendant informs her special interest in the mental health needs of aviation professionals. This firsthand experience gives her unique insight into the emotional labor, irregular schedules, and high‑stress demands faced by pilots, flight attendants, and ground crew.
In addition to her clinical and holistic work, Keyayanna is the creator of Mindset Miles, a YouTube channel offering accessible wellness education through guided practices, mindset tools, and integrative mental health conversations.
