About Yolanda
Yolanda Knox is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oklahoma with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, stress and anxiety, and questions about identity and life direction. She lists life purpose among her areas of focus and helps people who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships, or health.
Before clinical licensure she spent many years as a family advocate and case manager, and has worked with social service agencies for over 20 years. That background shapes how she approaches practical problems, safety concerns, and systems that affect daily life. She has experience with domestic violence, 2SLGBTQ+ related issues, adoption and foster care, and attachment concerns.
In session she follows client-centered principles, which means she centers the person's experience and preferences. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep people stuck. Sessions tend to focus on concrete steps, communication problems, boundary setting, and managing strong emotions like anger or grief.
Yolanda supports people facing addiction, bipolar disorder, depression, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, body image, codependency, and career or role changes. Her approach combines practical problem solving with attention to the person's strengths and choices.
Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and values. The therapist listens closely and follows what the person identifies as most important, which helps when someone is unsure what matters next.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to test beliefs and change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck after life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily demands to decide whether to emphasize client-centered discussions, CBT techniques, or a combination. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue care if life circumstances change, while the therapist and client adjust the approach to suit practical needs.
