Meet Shaquahia – Founder and Lead Psychotherapist at Comfort Counseling, LLC

Shaquahia, a proud Virginia native, is the founder and lead psychotherapist of Comfort Counseling, LLC. With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, she brings a wealth of knowledge and compassion to her practice.

Her diverse background includes work in group homes, community mental health agencies, hospitals, and medical clinics. Shaquahia has supported a wide range of populations, including individuals with disabilities, children and adults in behavioral health settings, and geriatric patients in oncology and hospice care.

Shaquahia earned her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Virginia State University and a Master of Social Work from Walden University. She is deeply passionate about helping clients become the best versions of themselves.

“I don’t adhere to one specific therapeutic theory. Instead, I draw from CBT, DBT, EMDR, and solution-focused approaches to tailor therapy uniquely to each client’s needs. Remember, you already have the answers—I’m here to help you find them.”

Outside of her professional life, Shaquahia enjoys traveling, shopping, and spending quality time with her husband and two children.
