Getting to know Sequoia Bruce
Are you ready to work? If not, choose someone else. I presume you wanted a cheesy pickup line, lol. That’s not me.
I’m from Texas, where our eyes are just as big as our stomachs. No, I don’t have an accent. I attended Texas A&M University and received my Master’s in Clinical Psychology. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and was the first person in my family to go to college. I realized early on that I wanted to help people. I thought I wanted to be a pediatrician but soon realized med school was extremely hard. Kudos to all those medical doctors. There’s a backstory of how I got into this field, but I won’t bore you. I have worked in psychiatric facilities and community mental health centers. The hospitals were my favorite. I learned so much from my patients, and they learned a great deal from me. I felt blessed that they kept me humble. I hope they still remember me. I will always remember them.
Now onto the fun stuff! I’m a goofy person who entertains myself, and naturally, that entertains others. They say I should be a comedian, but I can’t do that on demand. When I explain certain events in my life, it’s comical to most people. Unusual things happen to me—if it’s 1 in 1,000, pretty sure it’s going to happen to me. Usually not the good stuff either... more so peculiar.
I like most sports. I played volleyball, softball, soccer, and cheerleading. I competed in beauty pageants most of my life and competed in Miss Teen Texas at 16. I like to go fishing, and I recently started playing golf. I suck—I’m terrible at it. But I’m getting better. I love to travel and have covered most of America. I also went to India and Mexico.
I am a very direct and assertive person. I try to empower anyone I come in contact with—family, friends, or strangers. I’m sure if you put in the work in our therapeutic relationship, you will see changes. In the end, you will make leaps and bounds and grow.
What should a new client know about working with you?
"Our sessions will not be easy. Please be prepared to work. After we are done you will feel confident and be able to stand on your own two feet. You're voice will be louder and you will be able to communicate how you feel. You will be able to rid yourself of toxic people and bad habits.
IF YOU MAKE THAT DECISION I will be here to help facilitate and see it through.
""you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink it."""

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
