La’Tish Thomas is a New York-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist, and Owner of Therapy Healing Spaces. She graduated from Hunter College Silberman School of Social Work and has been providing mental health services for over 14+ years in a variety of clinical settings including private practice and outpatient (home, school, and community) treatment, as well as facilitating restorative healing circles within the school system. She provides insight-oriented and solution-focused treatment for stress and anxiety, depression, relational challenges, and race-based stress and trauma.
Most importantly, La'Tish identifies as a black woman, who is passionate about catalyzing healing within black women and normalizing mental and emotional health in her community, which ultimately led her to create her virtual private practice, Therapy Healing Spaces.
Therapy Healing Spaces is an intentional healing space for women, specifically black women, who can have a brave space to heal, learn to set boundaries, prioritize themselves, and grow.
La'Tish understands the challenges we face in everyday life and wants to affirm to her clients that they no longer have to go through the hurdles of finding the right therapist that can relate to and understand the lived experiences of being a black woman and a professional.

Anxiety
There are many similarities in how anxiety manifests in various individuals; however, it is a unique experience for you. Let’s explore the complexity of your challenges so that you can understand what anxiety means to you and help alleviate feeling afraid about anxiety and some of its symptoms.
Depression
The experience of shame, grief, hopelessness, and disconnection can be unbearable. Let's explore the roots of your challenges and be aware of and deconstruct negative thinking so that you can feel empowered, get back to yourself, and take your life back.
Relationships
Relationships are difficult, and you may be feeling misunderstood or invalidated by current or past relationships. As a result, you have a hard time setting boundaries and managing emotions and expectations when triggered by others. Together we can have honest and compassionate conversations and work through problems that get in the way of your growth, increased self-esteem, and, most importantly, you feeling wanted, cared for, and understood in meaningful relationships whether romantic, platonic, or familial.
