About Anne
Anne San Juan is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with three years of direct practice experience. She works with adults on common early-adulthood pressures such as career stress, relationships, identity questions, and coping with life changes. Her practice addresses anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and related concerns young adults often face as they leave home, start jobs, or navigate school-to-work transitions.
She takes a straightforward, matter-of-fact approach in sessions. Conversations focus on noticing patterns, understanding reactions, and identifying small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions are practical and aim to clarify what is and isn’t working for the client.
Anne uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow what a person brings into the room and to support their own problem-solving. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help with change-related goals and Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term steps that build momentum. These approaches are used to address issues such as addiction, relationship problems, grief, and mood concerns.
Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, family of origin issues, parenting stress, ADHD, and multicultural matters. The emphasis is on clear conversation and practical strategies rather than clinical jargon.
Clients are invited to start by outlining what feels most urgent. From there she helps set manageable goals and checks progress in straightforward ways. This style is intended for people who want direct conversation and usable steps to handle the pressures of early adulthood.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to what the client brings and helping them make their own choices; it is useful for exploring identity, relationships, and confidence questions. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify change goals and find their own reasons to act, which is often helpful for addiction, habit change, or moving through stuck spots. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable steps and practical strategies to build momentum and address specific problems.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The idea is to find methods that fit a client's needs and preferences rather than impose a single model.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. In general, online therapy can make it easier to schedule sessions around work or school, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Clients are encouraged to confirm which session formats are offered and to pick options that fit their daily routine and comfort level.
