Cultivate emotional resilience,
Break Free from Self Sabotage, and Strengthen Relationships
As an award-winning psychiatrist, speaker, author and mental health advocate I seek to leverage influence to make an impact.
I'm Dr. Ayo
PHYSICIAN. EXECUTIVE. AUTHOR. RELATIONSHIP EXPERT.
While many recognize me as a psychiatrist specializing in mental health, addiction, and relationships, my mission goes beyond treatment. I am passionate about guiding individuals toward emotional and spiritual well-being, helping them integrate their faith into every aspect of life for lasting transformation.
My clients turn to me for support in:
- Breaking free from self sabotage and unhealthy habits to reclaim their lives and well-being
- Cultivating emotional resilience through faith-centered approaches to mental health and personal growth
- Strengthening relationships by fostering deeper connections and healing through therapeutic guidance
- Aligning their faith with mental health to navigate life’s challenges with clarity and purpose
- Building strategies for sustainable recovery that nurture mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being
- Creating lasting change by embedding faith-driven mental health practices into everyday life
As an author, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my insights and experiences through books that explore the intersection of faith and mental health. These works provide practical tools and spiritual wisdom to help readers lead healthier, more purposeful lives.
In addition to my clinical work, I bring the perspective of a business executive, having led teams and organizations in the healthcare space. This experience has sharpened my understanding of leadership, organizational dynamics, and the importance of mental health in the workplace. I combine this expertise with my therapeutic background to help business leaders cultivate emotionally healthy, purpose-driven work environments.
For over two decades, I’ve helped countless individuals, families, and organizations heal and transform their lives, through therapy, workshops, speaking engagements, and written work.
My goal is to continue empowering others to live with purpose, health, and faith—and I’d be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
My mission is simple!
Help others align their life goals with their mental health for lasting transformation in both their personal lives and professional environments.
Few things are more challenging than seeing individuals struggle with stress, broken relationships, or emotional turmoil because they lack the tools to align their mental health with their faith and purpose.
I’m here to help bridge that gap!
Strategic coaching for executives
I coach and consult with leaders who want to increase their executive leadership skills, improve their team’s culture and grow in business. From small business owners to corporate executives, I provide tailored coaching solutions that enhance leadership skills, foster team cohesion, and transform toxic workplace cultures into thriving, productive environments.

On a personal note
I’m a wife and co-founder of multiple businesses with my hubby Jason Gathing who I adore.
I’m a mom to two rambunctious boys named Jason and Jameson who are my sonshine! LOL
I always speak in love but am known for being the ‘tell it like it is’ friend, doctor and coach!
I believe abundance comes in seeking the kingdom, your passion and the desires of your heart instead of chasing money and material things. I talk more about this philosophy on our podcast…God Meets Therapy.
