My Approach to Helping
Born in South Africa, Dr. Mirriam Knight is a faith-based licensed clinical psychologist and a certified transformational coach with the John Maxwell Team, with over 17 years of experience in mental health and wellness, as well as over 15 years working with governmental and non-profit organizations maximizing results. Dr. Knight's mission is to heal and empower individuals to live a life of destiny, addressing wounds, blockages, and areas of personal, interpersonal, and organizational dysfunction that are preventing optimal wellness and wholeness. She is an advocate for transformation and change, and is committed to breaking barriers, challenging oppressive systems, and helping people discover their voice and God-given assignment and begin to operate in it fully. Dr. Knight believes in developing an individualized approach to serving her clients, integrating psychological, spiritual, social, and transformational coaching approaches formulated from a comprehensive assessment of the client and their sociocultural history and multiple other factors that contribute to presenting problems and symptoms. She is passionate about serving leaders, visionaries, helpers, and those that are constantly available for others but have no one to be there for them, and their families. These individuals and couples are burnt out, grieving, suffering from multiple traumatic experiences that are affecting every area of their lives including their health, relationships, faith, work, and overall wellness. They feel like they are at the edge of breaking and are ready to ask for and receive the help and support they need to shift the trajectory of their lives to one that creates room for healing and wholeness in every area of their lives. Our sessions together will be a journey into truth and healing that may often be the hardest thing you have ever done. You will feel heard and supported, and you will also be challenged to shift internally so that you can experience the shift externally. I believe that the majority of healing and transformative work takes place between sessions, when you reflect and implement the strategies that we explore during sessions, in your daily life practices.
