Henrietta Knox, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor, CEO, Clinical Director 

My approach to counseling is based on the belief that people are resilient, can heal from pain, and can become more in balance with themselves and in their relationships by understanding themselves, their strengths, needs, and hurts. As a result of this understanding, one can make responsible choices about functioning more healthily and satisfyingly both personally and in relationships with others, live productive lives, and choose a path for healing from past pain or patterns. Counseling and Psychotherapy can contribute to this understanding and healing.

I pull from a variety of theories and models to fit your needs. It is my first goal to create a safe therapeutic relationship, in which you feel respected and supported. I utilize an integrative approach working within a framework of IFS (Internal Family Systems, Level 1 trained) EMDR therapy (more than 15 years experience), Somatic therapy approaches, Polyvagal Informed Therapy, Directed Mindfulness, and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with Psychodynamic elements. I would be happy to explain my way of working to you in person.
