About Anne
Anne San Juan brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy. She is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, with three years of experience in this independent practice setting. Her style is straightforward and nonjudgmental, aimed at helping people understand their patterns and make small changes that matter.
She focuses on everyday problems that can feel overwhelming, such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting concerns, and addiction. Anne also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, issues around intimacy, and questions about life purpose and midlife transitions.
How Anne works
She works with clients who face mood disorders, ADHD, eating and sleeping difficulties, and career-related stress. In sessions she centers the conversation on the person in front of her. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect, Motivational Interviewing to help people find the reasons they want change, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set practical short-term goals.
Her approach is collaborative and goal-directed, with an emphasis on what the client wants to try next. Anne offers appointments by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sessions are scheduled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and costs vary with location and therapist availability.
She conducts sessions in English and practices in California. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a time that fits. The initial step is a simple conversation to identify priorities and agree on a plan.

Online support options
Approaches you can use online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can better understand themselves. It helps with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and navigating life changes by centering the client's experience.Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It uses calm questions and reflections to build motivation for tackling issues like addiction, unhealthy habits, or stages of ambivalence about change.
Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on small, practical steps that can make a quick difference. This approach is useful for setting short-term goals around stress, coping, or communication problems.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then recommend one or a mix of methods that fit the client's needs. Together they track progress and adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is good for a full conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text messaging fit quick check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
