We help clients understand anxiety triggers while developing practical tools for emotional regulation.

Report
Dr. Knox is a deeply effective professional. He's demonstrably knowledgeable in his areas of interest. He implements his expertise into the sessions in a way that feels not like a mental health practitioner is trying to fix you or whatever, but rather you two are both working on something together. It's been a few years now since ending my sessions with him, and I still consider his work with me to be an important part of my life and development. I really know how hard it is to find therapists, so if you're struggling with finding someone and have the opportunity to see Dr. Knox, I couldn't think
