As soon as an accident happens [to a Sequoia tree], such as lightning, the branches beneath the wound–repair the damage. Limbs that have grown outward for centuries will begin to turn upward to assist in making a new crown.

MEET SEQUOIA THERAPY
–IS IT THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU?
Sequoia Therapy is directed by Dr. Jason Buening, a New York State licensed psychologist. His treatment emphasis is in anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and acute stress. He has a broad background in crisis management for children, adolescents, and teens. He brings a rare depth of experience in treatment of youth in crisis, helping families heal vulnerabilities and build tools to successfully navigate in the present.
At Sequoia we provide traditional anxiety treatment, depression counseling, DBT and RO-DBT adjunct therapy, social skills training for Autism, and trauma focused work for adolescents.
We can also provide ongoing support services for college students, parents, chronic illness, grief, and support for doctors, nurses, and first-responders.
You are welcome here. Sequoia Therapy is an open space for gender, sexual, ethnic and religious minorities. Sometimes differences within-or on the surface, feel uncomfortable. Sit a bit longer with perceived difference and you grow to respect, learn-from, appreciate, and love them. It's okay to be uncomfortable and it can be a leap to connect how one's discomfort commonly leads to fear, avoidance, objectification–and eventually to inequity, disparity, and violence. Working to understand and rectify that path is often overwhelming. But as we climb the hurdles within, and cease contributing to the mechanisms that perpetuate fear outside and around us, we roll back the curtain of dehumanization. Growing your capacity to care up close and from a distance... Looking forward to meeting
