Dr. Regina Knox offers a distinct approach to family counseling, recognizing that family dynamics are broader and more intricate than those in couples counseling. Her sessions focus on the interplay between family members of all ages, addressing individual roles, communication patterns, and generational influences. Dr. Knox believes that when one family member faces challenges, it reverberates throughout the entire unit. By facilitating open dialogue and fostering understanding among all members, she ensures that the family can collectively heal, adapt, and grow stronger.

There are many ways to work with families and couples. A very straightforward approach involved learning and applying new ways of communicating. One such approach was initially called Non-Violent Communication and has since been termed compassionate communication.

It really depends on the needs of each couple or family. Based upon those needs I work to develop individualized approaches to help them achieve their goals.

I believe that when one member is having difficulty the entire family is "sick" and I work toward getting the entire family back to health and happiness.

Therapy focuses on the patterns of interaction between family members, and emphasizes improved communication and connection as an important factor to create change. Involving various family members in treatment helps to benefit so that everyone has a similar understanding of the issues within the relationships, and expectations of others.

When I work with families, together we look for patterns and cycles that the family seems to be repeating but are creating problems for the family. When there is stress in the family, emotions tend to be very strong, so it can be difficult to think through each person's part in the family that may be keeping the system from changing. In family therapy we work at lowering the anxiety so that we can collaborate together for positive solutions.
