Great to meet you!

I'm so glad you're here. My name is Shaquana Ina. I have 8+ years experience in counseling. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, grief, or managing stress, I can guide you to a peace of mind by offering you advice, support, and a safe space to talk about the problems you are struggling with. I believe people are amazingly resilient and capable of overcoming huge obstacles. At times, we just need help coping and overcoming such obstacles, and I am here to help you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

There is no one size fits all approach when it comes to mental health. Some modalities will work better with some clients, and some modalities will not. I do not take a cookie cutter approach to counseling. I draw from a variety of disciplines and use a range of proven methods to determine the best combination of therapeutic tools that best meets the individual needs of my very unique clients.

What you can expect from our first session

Together, we will work and chart a course for your healing to begin. I will work to be the guide that allows you to find new ways of healing and being. A lot of times it feels scary to come to therapy. I just want you to understand that here, there’s no judgment. Here, it’s safe for you to feel, say, and be exactly who you are.
