About Sanjuana
Sanjuana Meza is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. She speaks English and Spanish and brings six years of counseling experience to her work. Her style is warm and respectful, and she aims to make conversations straightforward and useful.
She tailors sessions to each person’s needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan. Sanjuana often focuses on practical skills for day-to-day life, like managing strong emotions, improving sleep and routines, and handling setbacks without losing momentum.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing grief, trauma, addiction concerns, and self-esteem struggles. Her approach draws on talk-based methods and exercises that help people notice thoughts and try new behaviors. Sessions may include strategies to reduce anxiety, techniques to regulate emotions, and steps to break unhelpful patterns.
She helps clients build a clearer sense of values and small steps toward goals. Sanjuana is mindful of cultural and immigration-related stressors and listens for how those issues shape a person’s choices and relationships. She addresses communication problems, feelings of isolation, and the shame or guilt that can follow major life changes.
Her work also covers concerns such as obsessive thoughts, phobias, and jealousy. People who choose her can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth process that focuses on practical change. She invites clients to set the pace and direction, and she adjusts conversation and tools to fit what each person needs in the moment.
Approach-driven care through online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts or feelings. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and motivation struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and avoidance. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and obsessive thoughts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals, try different methods, and decide together which tools fit best. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that matches personal needs and daily life demands.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging can support brief updates, skill practice, and between-session contact. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other routines.
