Hi! In a world where so many of us regularly get the message that we are flawed, I think it is important to start by saying something that we might not hear so regularly, which is, that it is okay to be you. But if I’m being honest, being yourself is not always an easy thing to do. As a therapist, I place priority in creating a therapy environment where clients feel safe to share the most authentic versions of themselves without fear of judgement. In addition to a safe therapeutic space, my goal is to assist clients on their paths towards self-expression and self-acceptance no matter where they are in their journey.

My name is Curran Knox (pronouns: she/her) but I prefer to go by my nickname, Curry. To me, the therapy process is about uncovering hidden truths, stepping into discovery and finding hope.

It isn’t always easy, but the end result can leave a legacy of hope, deeper awareness, and a greater sense of wellbeing.
