SJ Knowlton, LPC
My Story
No matter the issue, finding peace begins with creating compassion and curiosity for ourselves. I
work with adolescents and adults looking for a warm, non-judgmental space to explore their
struggles and experiences. I have worked with a broad range of clients, but I have a strong
background with those seeking to understand their anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. My
approach is trauma-informed and LGBTQ friendly. I also offer Eye Movement, Reprocessing,
and Desensitization (EMDR) therapy.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and received my M.Ed in Counseling from the
University of Houston. I have worked in private practice settings as well as a community clinic
providing services to vulnerable and at-risk populations. My practice includes individuals, those
seeking PTSD treatment, and clients aged 16 and up. My specialties include anxiety, LGBTQ+,
feminism, trauma of all kinds, and attachment styles. Prior to pursuing my master’s in education,
I worked in marketing as a copywriter. I majored in Creative Writing in undergrad, which helped
fuel my understanding and appreciation for all stories and people. I have also led groups, one
based on Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements and a feminist processing group called
“Good for Her.”
Each of us has a chance to create meaning from our experiences. As your therapist, we will work together to process and build greater self-compassion and effective coping mechanisms to meet your needs.
In my spare time I love reading and writing, movies, playing and listening to music, and
spending time with my cat, Lucy Mew.
