DR. LATISHA THOMAS, LCSW-S
I am accepting private pay clients only
Hi! My name is Dr. LaTisha Thomas, and I am excited that our paths have crossed. Believe me, it was not by coincidence. I am just like YOU, seeking all that life has to offer while tackling the daily struggle of what we call life.
I find myself confronted with what at the moment feels like Mount Everest, but once I draw on the strengths I intrinsically possess I am able to see it is just a developed goal away. You too have what it takes to address your life’s challenges, and I want to partner with you on the journey of discovery.
​
Tomorrow and Beyond, PLLC. was created with you in mind.
I am a firm believer that you already possess the strength and ability within yourself to become the person you want to be. I am honored to be the person to go on the journey of discovery with all those I serve.
