About Juanita
Juanita Haskins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping adults untangle problems that leave them overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to move forward. Her work often addresses anger, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and stress.
She aims to build a collaborative relationship where clients feel heard and safe to bring hard things into the room. Sessions emphasize practical skills and simple steps that people can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Juanita draws on a mix of approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Her methods include cognitive-based techniques for shifting unhelpful thinking and mindfulness strategies to manage strong emotions. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify what matters to them and move toward it.
Treatment plans focus on small, achievable changes rather than big, vague goals. Juanita often helps people develop tools for handling anger and impulsivity, coping with life transitions, and managing addiction-related challenges. She also supports those dealing with caregiver stress, chronic illness, and grief.
Sessions are geared to build skills that last after therapy ends. All work is with adults 18 and over. Juanita uses phone, video, live chat, and text-based messaging as convenient options for sessions.
She asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire to match goals and schedule a first appointment.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Juanita often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and many everyday problems that get in the way of functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and learning to accept uncomfortable feelings while taking steps toward a meaningful life. This approach can help with anger, grief, and coping with life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of relating influence current relationships and emotional responses, and can be helpful when communication or connection feels strained.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Juanita will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. She adjusts the plan as progress is made so therapy matches the person's needs rather than fitting a rigid model.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make participation easier. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, real-time coach-style support, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and life demands.
