About Beverly
Beverly Knighten is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience. She practices from Arkansas and brings a calm, respectful manner to conversations about life stress and change. Beverly focuses on helping people who are managing anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and other major life challenges.
She uses clear, plain talk and adapts her style to each person. Sessions are interactive and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on practical steps people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Beverly listens first, then helps people build plans that fit their daily lives. Her background includes long experience in varied clinical settings across states. That work exposed her to a wide range of concerns, including trauma, abuse, bereavement, and bipolar disorder.
She also supports people navigating career shifts, parenting pressures, and questions about sexual orientation and identity. In session she blends Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That mix lets her match strategies to what a person needs right now, whether that means changing unhelpful thoughts, setting short-term goals, or finding motivation to make a change.
People who come to Beverly can expect straightforward guidance, practical tools, and regular check-ins on progress. She encourages collaboration so goals stay realistic and manageable. If someone is ready to tackle anger, grief, or the stress of daily life, she offers steady support and concrete next steps.

Approaches that shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and working at your pace. The therapist focuses on your concerns and reflects what you say to help you find your own solutions. This approach is useful when someone needs a respectful, steady space to make sense of feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thinking and build new habits. CBT is often used for anxiety, anger, and mood concerns where changing patterns can bring quick relief.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Beverly will help you choose approaches based on your goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. She treats the process as a conversation and adjusts plans as you try strategies and report back.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, coaching-style notes, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and help people fit sessions into busy schedules.
