About Sequoia

Sequoia San Juan is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California who helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and relationship strain. She offers a calm, steady presence where clients can set down what feels heavy and begin to notice small changes. Her style is approachable and kind, aimed at making hard conversations feel manageable.

Sequoia listens without judgment and follows each person’s lead. She blends talk with practical tools so clients can try new ways of coping between sessions. She pays attention to emotional safety and moves at a pace that fits each person’s needs.

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, mindfulness practices, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. These methods are used as tools rather than strict rules, chosen to fit a person’s goals and circumstances. That can mean learning skills to reduce panic, shifting unhelpful thinking, or slowing down to notice what matters.

Across seven years of practice she has worked with issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy-related challenges, low self-esteem, social anxiety, and life transitions. Sequoia supports people who feel isolated or stuck and those rebuilding after loss or a difficult change.

Sessions are conducted in English from her California practice. She does not accept international clients. If you want to explore working together, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so clients feel heard and understood. It helps when someone wants a supportive space to talk through worry, grief, or relationship strain without being judged.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes. It can be useful for depression, panic attacks, and social anxiety by teaching concrete steps to shift thinking and test new habits.

Mindfulness Therapy invites simple practices to calm the body and steady attention. This can reduce rumination and make strong emotions easier to sit with in the moment.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods feel most useful, tailoring sessions to goals and personal preferences rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering ways to practice skills between appointments. Licensed therapists can use these approaches to support progress while keeping therapy practical and focused on everyday improvement.
