Ayana Rowe

RBT

Ayana is currently enrolled at OSU Lima working toward her bachelor’s degree in Psychology. She took a Psychology course in high school and fell in love with the subject. This inspired a fascination with the human psyche and a desire to further her studies in this topic. She grew up with a loved one who was diagnosed with Asperger's, and so she can empathize with the families of individuals who are affected by autism. She is excited to bring this experience to CCBT and our clients! Her future aspirations include furthering her studies and earning a PhD. She would like to continue her work with the autism community and teach others to do the same in a university setting. In her free time, Ayana likes to settle down to a relaxing television show with her friends and family.
