Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Sanjuana draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify what matters most and take values-based actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, and motivation concerns because it emphasizes acceptance and committed change.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often helpful for symptoms of anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by teaching practical skills to manage moods and reactions.

Client-Centered Therapy is another key part of her approach, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective guides the pace and goals of treatment. This approach helps build self-esteem, confidence, and a stronger therapeutic alliance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Sanjuana will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility and makes it easier to fit care into busy lives. These options allow clients to meet with licensed professionals from different locations, schedule sessions around other commitments, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not practical.
