Getting to know Shanika Thomas

Hi! My name is Dr. Thomas, and I am so glad you are here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctoral Degree in Social Work from Capella University and a Master of Social Work from Clark Atlanta University. I work with adults, families, and children (age 4-17+), focusing on emotional regulation, confidence building, life transitions, and behavior concerns in children and teens. I am passionate about helping young people build self-esteem and emotional regulation skills, while also helping adults process past and present challenging experiences and grow into healthier, more empowered versions of themselves.
