Hi, I'm Shakelia! I believe you deserve a space where you can be yourself, speak openly, and feel genuinely heard. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, and difficult life experiences. Whether you're feeling emotionally exhausted, struggling in your relationships, or noticing patterns you can't seem to break, I'm here to help you make sense of what you're going through and find a healthier way forward.
I know that opening up about personal struggles isn't always easy. My goal is to create a comfortable, judgment-free environment where we can have honest conversations, recognize your strengths, and work toward changes that feel meaningful to you. I bring warmth, compassion, and a practical perspective to our sessions, and I believe you should feel supported while also being encouraged to grow.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience as a therapist, I am dedicated to helping individuals and groups navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based care. My practice focuses on supporting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and the effects of trauma.
My professional background includes experience in psychiatric mental health, telehealth services, patient advocacy, care coordination behavior health counseling, and nursing leadership. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of healthcare settings, providing psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive counseling. My leadership experience has also strengthened my ability to coordinate comprehensive, patient-centered care and collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary healthcare teams. I serve adolescents, adults, and older adults and strive to create a welcoming, respectful, and culturally sensitive environment where clients feel comfortable discussing their concerns. My goal is to help clients improve their emotional well-being, develop healthy coping strategies, and achieve meaningful progress in their mental health journey.
Hi, I'm Christopher. I believe we all have the capacity to live fulfilling lives marked by agency and self-efficacy. My approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and narrative-based, so our work centers your story, not a diagnosis. If you're ready to feel heard and start writing the next chapter, I'd love to work with you.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor passionate about helping clients move past what's holding them back from being their best selves. I am a proud alumnus of North Carolina Central University (B.A.) and Nova Southeastern University (M.S., Mental Health Counseling). I welcome clients from all walks of life and every stage of the journey, whether you're new to therapy or returning. Together, we identify what isn't working, build on what is, and create a path toward real, lasting change. My goal is that you leave feeling heard, understood, and equipped to move forward.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you have been carrying life’s challenges on your own. Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your child, I want you to know that you do not have to have everything figured out before walking through my door. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself, sharing your story, and exploring your feelings without fear of judgment.
I work with children, youth, and adults, and I believe every person deserves to feel heard, valued, and understood. I approach therapy with compassion, patience, and an open heart, recognizing that everyone’s journey is different. I understand that healing takes time, and I strive to meet each client where they are while honoring their individual experiences, strengths, and goals.
My approach is holistic and client-centered. I incorporate evidence-based methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), mindfulness, and strengths-based techniques, to help clients develop healthy coping skills, build resilience, and navigate life’s challenges. Together, we explore practical strategies that support emotional wellness, personal growth, and healthier relationships.
I believe therapy is not about changing who you are or expecting perfection. It is about discovering your strengths, understanding yourself more deeply, and learning new ways to respond to life’s challenges. I value the connection we build throughout the therapeutic process and believe meaningful growth happens when you feel safe, supported, and empowered.
Most importantly, I want you to know that you do not have to walk this journey alone. I am here to listen, encourage, and work alongside you as you take steps toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life. We will move at a pace that feels comfortable for you, recognizing and celebrating progress along the way.
As a health care provider, patient advocacy has been the cornerstone of my practice. I am a highly self-sufficient professional, confident in my ability to independently manage and resolve a wide range of common challenges and unpredictable situations in healthcare. As a doctorial prepared nurse practitioner, I've had the opportunity to build tools to support providers with improving the accuracy of their diagnoses. My autonomous background has provided me with a proven record in treating Mood Disorders, Eating Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Women's Health related psychiatric disorders, Body Dysmorphia, as well as Sleep Disorders. Working within a diverse population including rural health has prepared me to serve and cater to the complexity and challenges faced by my clients, across all ages. In my spare time outside of the office, I enjoy reading, exercise, traveling, and playing with my puppy.

I help adults who are overwhelmed by grief, stress, or major life changes find direction and relief again.
Therapy with me is about taking pressure off your shoulders and replacing it with calm, clarity, and the support you deserve.
I assist children, teens, young adults, and adults work through tough times and difficult emotions, life’s transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether it’s a child with big feelings and educational barriers, a teen feeling isolated and unsure of themselves, or an adult attempting to navigate anxiety, stress, burnout, or identity shifts - I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore what’s going on and facilitate lasting change.
I’m Kanisha McKnight, MSN, APRN-PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals regain stability, confidence, and emotional well-being. I have been a nurse 23 years working in various areas but mental health is my passion.
Have you been feeling stuck, or uncertain? Something brought you here, and we can work through it together. I have over 6 years of experience focusing on helping individuals through grief and loss, relationships, anxiety, depression, stress / physical stress and trauma. My passion is helping adult patients move from a place of despair to optimism. My ability to help others comes from personal life experience, formal and informal education and the desire to help. I use researched based therapeutic methods to strengthen and empower you to be able to problem solve and face challenges independently. I will not promise you a cure. I will promise to work with you until you reach a place of peace and calm. If that is what you are looking for, I would love to meet you.
