About Juanita

Juanita Haskins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with 12 years of experience. She works with adults 18 and over on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, parenting concerns, relationship strain, trauma and anger. She also addresses bipolar symptoms, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.

Juanita describes therapy as a collaborative process. She aims to come alongside people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to make changes. In sessions she helps clients identify new ways of coping and build skills that support everyday life.

Her clinical approach draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside acceptance and commitment principles, attachment-informed work, dialectical behavior strategies, and client-centered techniques. She integrates tools like motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods to fit what a person brings to the room.

Practically, Juanita focuses on concrete skills and insight. Clients can expect help with behavior and thinking patterns, emotion regulation skills, and steps for making changes outside of sessions. She emphasizes tools that remain useful after therapy ends.

Juanita works with adults from a range of backgrounds and addresses a broad set of concerns, including caregiver stress, chronic illness issues, communication problems, codependency, and end-of-life caregiving. She invites adults ready to look at patterns that get in the way of daily life and relationships to consider working together.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It supports committing to actions that reflect personal values, which can help when coping with anxiety, grief, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises and skill building to reduce symptoms like panic, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns.

Attachment-Based Therapy considers how early and current relationships shape expectations and reactions. It can help when relationship strain, caregiver stress, or attachment concerns affect daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods based on goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as current options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in their normal routines so change can transfer into everyday life.
