Michelle Knight-Cooper

My communication style

I value honest, transparent communication and strive to foster a safe, non-judgmental space. Through active listening, I’ll encourage you to reflect on your experiences while standing alongside you with empathy. When challenges arise, you can count on me to remain calm, patient, and supportive.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path into therapy began with seeing PTSD in my Vietnam veteran parent and later in friends returning from post-9/11 deployments. Through supporting clients with diverse trauma, I’ve witnessed the profound healing that therapy can offer. I believe wholeheartedly in each person’s ability to recover and experience meaningful, lasting change.

My goals for you

I view therapy as a collaborative process. Together, we’ll identify the goals that matter most to you—whether that means strengthening relationships, building confidence, or exploring personal growth. As your insights deepen, we’ll adjust your plan so it continues to feel meaningful, supportive, and aligned with where you want to go.

Our first session

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and talk about what brings you to therapy. We will discuss your goals and how we will achieve them.
