Shaquila Glass , LICSW, LCSW

Shaquila Glass is a licensed clinical social worker with 12 years of experience. She holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and practices in Virginia. Shaquila focuses on women's issues alongside common concerns like stress and anxiety.

She helps people cope with life changes and manage grief. Shaquila also supports those facing relationship struggles and the strain of isolation or loneliness. Her work extends to postpartum depression, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and fertility-related stress.

Shaquila uses practical talk and reflective listening to make space for difficult feelings. She draws on several approaches to match the moment and the person's needs. Sessions focus on small steps, clearer choices, and building skills that can be used outside appointments.

Clients who worry about body image or who live with chronic pain, illness, or disability can find focused support. She also helps people reconnect with a sense of life purpose and self-love. Conversations often include coping strategies tailored to everyday routines.

Shaquila aims to create an open, nonjudgmental environment where people can speak honestly. She emphasizes collaboration and empowers people to take concrete actions toward change. Starting therapy is treated as a step-by-step process shaped by each person's goals and pace.

Therapeutic tools and online options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them block valued actions. It can be useful for anxiety, grief, and getting unstuck from patterns that limit life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve mood. CBT is often used for stress, anxiety, and everyday coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different strategies to see what fits. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so tools match what matters most to the person.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for in-depth conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat or text messaging lets people check in between meetings or use a written format when that feels easier. These options make it simpler to attend sessions around work, caregiving, or other obligations.
