Yolanda Knox , LCSW

Yolanda Knox is an Oklahoma-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has held her state license since January 2020. She brings decades of experience working within social service agencies, including five years as a family advocate and seven years as a case manager, and draws on that background to support people navigating complex life challenges.

Her practice includes work with domestic violence survivors, 2SLGBTQ+ related concerns, relationship and family conflicts, and trauma and abuse. She approaches therapy from a perspective that honors each person as the expert on their own life, helping clients identify and build on strengths to address obstacles. Yolanda values the courage it takes to pursue a more fulfilling and happier life and positions herself as a supportive and empowering partner in that process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Yolanda uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative space where the client’s values, experiences, and goals guide the work. This approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and empowering the individual to draw on their strengths, which can be especially helpful for relationship concerns, family conflicts, and identity-related issues.

She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical method that explores the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT offers tools for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning, supporting measurable change through skill-building and behavioral experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Yolanda works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will help tailor strategies and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Yolanda can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from diverse locations, increasing convenience and regular access to therapy when life is busy or circumstances change.
