About Sequoia
Sequoia San Juan is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, practicing in California with seven years of experience. She helps people who struggle with stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, family concerns, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, and life changes including social anxiety and phobia.
Sequoia listens with focus and works at a careful pace. Sessions are conversational and practical. She asks about what’s happening now, and what has mattered in the past, then looks for concrete ways to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning.
Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. That means conversations about thoughts and behaviors, practicing simple awareness exercises, and looking at life stories to find new ways forward. Sessions include clear steps and small experiments to try between meetings.
She supports people dealing with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress reactions, isolation or loneliness, communication problems, and questions about life purpose or self-love. Sequoia also helps people who want to improve intimacy and manage relationship stress without rehashing painful details faster than they are ready.
Practical matters are part of the work. She and the client discuss goals, what to try at home, and how to check progress. The focus is on actions that can fit into a busy life and build skills for handling social situations, high-pressure moments, and big changes.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. It helps when someone needs steady, nonjudgmental listening and support to talk through hard moments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and uses clear exercises to change them, which can help with anxiety, panic, and social fears.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sequoia will discuss goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try. The choice of tools is collaborative and can change as needs change.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into workdays or family routines, and certain exercises or check-ins work well without travel. If someone prefers shorter check-ins, audio-only conversations, or video meetings, discuss those possibilities when scheduling to match practical needs and comfort.
