Juanita Haskins, LPC

Juanita Haskins, LPC, has 12 years of experience helping adults navigate difficult seasons. She aims to build a calm, accepting space where people can talk about what keeps them stuck. Her focus includes mood concerns, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, addiction, and stressful life transitions.

She favors a practical, collaborative approach. Sessions concentrate on developing new coping skills, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and trying small behavior changes that add up over time. Juanita draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside acceptance-based and mindfulness strategies to tailor work to each person.

Her practice often highlights skills for responding to strong emotions, handling grief, and managing substance concerns. She also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, aging and end-of-life issues, and struggles with self-worth or codependency. Work can include concrete tools people keep using after therapy ends.

Juanita emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. She encourages clients to set small, achievable steps and to track progress between sessions. Her style blends practical skill-building with attention to attachment patterns and relational habits that affect daily life.

She works only with adults 18 and over in Virginia and conducts sessions in English. Prospective clients are invited to use the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that move someone toward a more meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by teaching practical coping skills and problem-solving steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people adjust how they relate to others and to themselves.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit your needs. Decisions about techniques and pacing are made collaboratively so clients feel involved and understood.
