About Yolanda

Yolanda Knox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oklahoma with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical concerns people bring into therapy, including relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, stress, anxiety, and addictions.

She also works with grief, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of attention include abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, blended family issues, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, communication and control problems, commitment issues, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and feelings of emptiness.

Yolanda draws on client-centered ways of working. That means she treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and builds on existing strengths. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors when they want change.

Her background includes more than 20 years with social service agencies, five years as a family advocate, and seven years as a case manager. That mix of community work and clinical practice shapes a practical, problem-focused style. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and steps people can try between meetings.

People who choose her often want straightforward help sorting relationship stress, processing trauma, or managing mood and attention challenges. She works in English and accepts international clients; confirm current session options before booking.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify goals, recognize their strengths, and make decisions that fit their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete strategies to change patterns that cause distress. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and behavior changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying an approach, checking how it feels, and adapting steps until the plan is useful and realistic.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a workday, sessions without a commute, or fewer scheduling barriers when living far from clinicians. Talk with her about what will fit your schedule and technical needs so sessions can be planned around your daily routine.
