About Juanita

Juanita Franklin, LPC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse and people dealing with family-related concerns. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental, and she focuses on listening first so people feel understood.

She uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques rather than a single fixed method. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs and goals, so the work can include skills practice, talking through difficult memories, and finding practical steps to reduce day-to-day distress.

Background and approach

Juanita brings twenty years of experience to this flexible approach. Her background includes long clinical practice as a licensed professional counselor in multiple states, and she now works from Colorado. That experience informs how she helps people facing a variety of life challenges, from chronic illness and caregiver stress to issues like attachment concerns and difficulties after adoption or foster care.

People who come for help can expect straightforward explanations of options and concrete tools to try between sessions. She aims to make therapy usable in everyday life, with short-term strategies and longer-term planning when needed. The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

If someone is unsure where to begin, Juanita guides them through clarifying what matters most and choosing manageable steps. Her approach combines listening, practical skills, and partnership tailored to each person's situation.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online care

Juanita commonly draws from well-established, evidence-based techniques. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and shifting behavior with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes values and committed action, helping people make meaningful changes even when uncomfortable feelings remain.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different strategies to find what fits best. That collaborative process can include short-term skill building or a longer plan for addressing trauma and deeper patterns.

Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing sessions during a work break. Online work also supports using digital tools and home-based practice between meetings so progress continues outside sessions.
