Juanita Haskins, LPC

Juanita Haskins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 12 years of experience. She creates a comfortable, accepting space and builds a collaborative relationship with each person she sees. Juanita focuses on helping adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to make changes in their lives.

She aims to come alongside clients and help them manage issues that interfere with daily life. That can mean learning new coping skills, changing unhelpful thinking, or developing small habits that add up. Sessions are practical and focused on skills people can use after therapy ends.

Juanita draws on cognitive-behavioral approaches, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, dialectical behavior strategies, and client-centered methods. She blends techniques to match each person's needs instead of using a single formula. Motivation and solution-focused steps are often part of the plan.

Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, chronic illness, codependency, and end-of-life issues.

Juanita works only with adults 18 and over. Her goal is to help people develop insight, build meaning, and leave therapy with concrete tools they can use going forward. She welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and aims to make therapy a collaborative process.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, then take small steps toward a meaningful life. It can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation problems by teaching acceptance and committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships affect current patterns in close relationships and emotion regulation, and it can help with trust, connection, and relational wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people focus on skill practice between sessions and bring real-life situations into discussion. Ask about the exact session types offered when you start the matching process so you know what will work best for your routine.
