Hi, I’m Dr. Tamika Person Knisley, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience assisting individuals through their personal and emotional challenges. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insight, and work towards positive change. I believe that every person has the ability to heal, to overcome, and to grow. If you are ready to explore your experiences in a supportive, informed environment... take steps toward change, I’m here to help.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) from New York. I received my Masters from Virginia Commonwealth University and have been practicing for 4 years. During this time I worked with children and adults with a range of mental health concerns. There are few conversations that I haven't had with a client at some point. I help adults and teens struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and life obstacles become the best versions of themselves.
