About Juanita
With 20 years of experience, she draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques rather than a single method. Sessions are tailored to the person in front of her, with practical skills and clear tools you can use between meetings. She focuses on real problems like communication struggles, caregiver stress, chronic health challenges, and issues related to adoption, abandonment, or attachment.
Juanita notices how life events shape behavior and mood. She works collaboratively to set goals and to find small, manageable steps toward them. Her approach emphasizes learning new coping skills, improving emotional regulation, and changing unhelpful thinking patterns.
Her background includes practice across different settings over two decades, and she maintains licensure as a Texas LPC and an Alaska LPC. She practices in Colorado and offers sessions in English.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. The service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location and availability.

Step 3
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Juanita uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work and help clients build coping skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages people to accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values; it can help with emotional avoidance and building meaningful routines.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try strategies, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time so sessions stay practical and relevant.
If you are considering online work, confirm the specific session formats available before booking since the profile does not list them. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions helpful for maintaining continuity of care when schedules or circumstances change.
