Kitra Thomas, Therapist

Kitra Thomas, LPC, helps teens, adults, and older adults across Wisconsin navigate life’s challenges with compassion, structure, and evidence-based care. Practicing at LifeStance Health, she provides therapy for individuals and families seeking meaningful change, whether they are coping with emotional distress, substance-related concerns, or major life transitions. Her approach blends warmth with clinical expertise to support patients throughout Wisconsin in building resilience and practical skills for long-term well-being. A core focus of Kitra’s work is supporting people impacted by alcohol and drug use issues and by grief. She is especially passionate about helping patients process loss, adjust to change, and reduce the emotional weight that can accompany substance use concerns. Through thoughtful, goal-oriented therapy, she helps clients understand patterns, strengthen coping strategies, and move toward healthier choices while honoring each person’s values and lived experience. Kitra treats teens (ages 15–17), adults, and seniors. She works with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including members of the LGBTQ+ community, military members and veterans, and individuals involved in adoption or foster care, and she also serves additional populations. Her therapeutic approach may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Christian counseling, and faith-based treatment, with additional interventions available based on individual needs. Services may include individual therapy, family therapy, group therapy, IOP, and case management. With more than a decade of clinical experience, Kitra brings steady guidance and a collaborative style to the therapy process. Outside of her work, she enjoys watching murder mysteries, comedies, and traveling.
