Meet Our Founder
"The true measure of success in therapy is empowering people to realize that they have the ability to attain the freedom they seek."
- Latisha McCoy, LPC
Free to Live Counseling Services provides a supportive environment where everyone feels empowered, safe, connected, and free. My name is Latisha McCoy. I am a wife, mother, author, and compassionate therapist based in the Philadelphia Tri-State Area. During my high school years, I developed a curiosity for human behavior. While pursuing my undergraduate degree, I was known among my peers as an emotional support. Looking back, it is these guided experiences that make me view therapy as more of a calling than a profession.
I have been working in the mental health field for over 15 years in various roles such as family-based therapist, clinical supervisor, and counseling program director. Prior to founding Free to Live, I worked for one of the largest telehealth providers globally, serving clients across the United States and 20 other countries. It was my clients who encouraged me to start my own practice, and during the global pandemic, we launched Free to Live.
At Free to Live, you can be sure to meet with someone filled with compassion and the experience needed to meet you where you are! Our goal is for you to feel that we are on this journey together. Our system includes an eclectic style when utilizing therapeutic approaches and tailoring that approach to your specific needs. We often use cognitive-behavioral, rational-emotive, psychodynamic, and humanistic approaches. We believe you are the most important component of therapy. In order to see results, you must do the work.
We look forward to helping you on your journey!
