By using flexible and integrative approaches, we will pull from various research-based methodologies, to develop a plan that is specifically tailored to you.
It can be a struggle to find someone who understands you for who you are and the complexities of your experiences. We all come from different walks of life, which shape how we see the world and how the world sees us. No one's walk is without trials and tribulations, which can have traumatic impacts on our mental and physical health. Everyone deserves to be heard and understood by someone who recognizes what they've been through and can help them foster personal growth and self-confidence.

We all face stressors in life that can become overwhelming. Feeling stuck with our own negative thoughts or anxiety about new changes; repeatedly engaging in the same fights with our partner or spouse; worrying that we cannot support our children in the way we want - these are all universal experiences. Everyone faces obstacles, but not everyone has to remain feeling helpless, hopeless, or stagnant. It is at these times when it makes the most sense to reach out for support and when therapy can be most effective.

Working for two decades with individuals and couples has continually shown me the value of therapy, and I have abundant respect for the courage it takes to seek help. I integrate relational, mindfulness, EFT, IFS and other talk therapy perspectives and, when it feels right for my clients, EMDR and Somatic Experiencing. These latter two modalities address trauma as well as many other areas of life. A certified EMDR consultant, I facilitate trainings and provide individual/group supervision for fellow therapists working with EMDR.

Someone who will listen to you in a non-judgmental way and help you make positive changes in your life. Dr. Knour is knowledgeable, empathic, and very easy to talk to.

I am a psychologist entering my twentieth year of private practice with children (ages four and up), teenagers and adults. My work with children and teenagers is both individual and parent-focused. Grounded in a clear understanding of developmental issues, I work closely with parents. Most of my clients come seeking treatment for mood, anxiety and relationship difficulties. I use a psychodynamic lens to conceptualize patient difficulties and integrate cognitive behavioral strategies to assist with symptoms and improve functioning.

Let's face it, life can be difficult. Sometimes emotions and circumstances feel overwhelming. Therapy offers a way to untangle your feelings and behaviors, offering the relief and distance needed to make sense of whatever is the matter, and process getting out from under it. As a therapist, I am active and engaged. We will collaborate to explore what's most distressing, and how best to resolve what is in your way, (whether emotional, relational, historical, professional,) to ultimately make meaningful, lasting changes that will allow you to feel invigorated and motivated to have the life you want and deserve.

To be fully alive means to experience the whole gamut of human emotions, including the uncomfortable ones like anxiety, sadness, anger, and shame. Paradoxically, the more fully we feel our feelings, the less intense and problematic they become over time! My job is to help people develop the skills to better recognize, understand, and tolerate their feelings, and in so doing, expand their capacity for pleasurable and joyful emotions.

Integrative Therapists
What is integrative therapy?
Integrative therapy is a type of therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic approaches depending on the needs of the individual client. By merging elements of different treatments, an integrative therapist aims to offer a more flexible approach than those who practice just one type of therapy.
How does integrative therapy work?
Integrative therapy approaches a client’s mental, physical, and emotional health in a holistic way to discover the sources of their unhealthy behavior patterns or other challenges and considers the approach most likely to lead to improvement. Among the techniques an integrative therapist may practice are cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, art or music therapy, psychodynamic therapy, breathwork, family systems therapy, gestalt therapy, and trauma-informed therapy. An integrative therapist regularly evaluates the client’s progress and is prepared to pivot to a different approach if progress stalls.
How long does integrative therapy last?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for integrative therapy; people who find they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that spurred them to seek treatment. New patients should understand that it may take some time for a therapist to land on a treatment approach that best meets their needs, but once they do, they should expect sessions to extend for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.
How effective is integrative therapy?
There are hundreds of types of talk therapy, and research shows that while they vary in form, goals, and frequency, many if not all can produce similarly successful outcomes. But a single approach does not always deliver the greatest, or speediest, benefit, and so even therapists primarily trained in one model will use tools, language, techniques, or exercises from others to shape an effective treatment plan.
