About Beverly
Beverly Knighten is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades of experience. She practices in Arkansas and brings a calm, down-to-earth approach to sessions. Beverly focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, mood concerns, and life transitions.

How Beverly works
Her background includes long experience across multiple settings and a range of concerns. She has helped people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, career decisions, and challenges related to sexual orientation. That variety has shaped a flexible, problem-solving mindset.
In practice she draws on client-centered principles to make people feel heard, cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and habits, and motivational interviewing to build readiness for change. Solution-focused techniques are used to set small, achievable goals and track progress. People who reach out can expect respect and a nonjudgmental tone.
Beverly emphasizes collaboration and practical steps you can try between sessions. She supports people ready to take concrete action toward a more manageable, satisfying life.

How Beverly’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters to you. Beverly uses it to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they need and set personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It helps with anxiety, depression, and mood swings by teaching specific skills to change thinking patterns and try new actions.
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels unsure about change. It uses careful questions and reflection to build motivation and plan small steps toward a goal.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Beverly will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. She adjusts the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant and realistic.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls work well for in-depth sessions, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text-based messaging lets people share thoughts between meetings. These options offer flexibility and can help maintain steady progress without major schedule changes.
