About Beverly

Beverly Knighten draws on two decades of clinical experience as a licensed clinical social worker to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, and life transitions. She holds an LCSW and practices from Arkansas, offering direct, down-to-earth support. Beverly meets people where they are and focuses on what they want to change next.

Her approach is practical and personal. She uses client-centered listening to understand each person’s priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors in daily life.

Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and geared toward real-world steps that fit a person’s routine. Beverly works with concerns such as depression, relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and coping with career or identity issues. She also supports people dealing with bipolar mood challenges and issues related to addiction.

The goal is steady progress instead of quick fixes. People who prefer an interactive, respectful style tend to fit well with her. She emphasizes collaboration and clear, manageable goals.

Therapy plans are shaped around each person’s situation, strengths, and timing. Practical matters are part of how she works. Sessions can include homework, short experiments to try between meetings, and regular check-ins on progress.

Beverly encourages clients to name one small change and build from there.

Online support

Approach-focused care through online sessions

Client-centered therapy starts by placing your concerns and goals at the center of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what matters to you, and helps shape conversations so your priorities guide the work. This approach is useful when you want a respectful, collaborative space to sort through decisions and feelings.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions use simple exercises and experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that affect daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Beverly will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That means trying things, reviewing how they worked, and adjusting the plan as needed in a collaborative way.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging make it possible to check in between meetings or use shorter, focused exchanges. These options make it easier to get consistent care that fits different schedules and life demands.
