About Lashonda

Lashonda Knox brings a decade of clinical experience to her practice in Georgia, supporting people facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, stress, addiction, self-esteem struggles, parenting challenges, and career changes.

Background and approach

She also addresses a wide range of related areas including cancer and caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life counseling, multicultural concerns, LGBT and sexuality matters, infidelity, and communication or commitment difficulties. Her approach centers on learning each person's story and collaborating to develop practical tools and insight.

Lashonda integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with narrative and person-centered influences, and she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing when appropriate. This blend aims to help clients explore patterns, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and build skills for coping with life transitions and compassion fatigue.

She holds a Master of Social Work from the University of Georgia and a bachelor’s degree in social work from Georgia State University, and she is licensed in Georgia as an LCSW (GA LCSW CSW005685). Lashonda emphasizes a supportive environment where clients can process emotions, gain information, and work toward greater peace of mind and achievable goals.

Approaches that guide online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes by teaching concrete skills and strategies. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with personal values, which can support those facing grief, chronic stress, or life transitions. Mindfulness Therapy involves practices that increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, offering tools for stress reduction, compassion fatigue, and improved emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Lashonda works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and circumstances, then tailors techniques from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, narrative work, or motivational interviewing to fit the individual's needs. This cooperative exploration helps find practical methods that feel useful and sustainable.

Online therapy with her is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access therapeutic support from home or work and to continue care during life transitions while still applying evidence-informed methods and practical coping tools.
