Brief Intro

Meet Dr. Michael J. Knight, your compassionate guide to mental wellness in New Hampshire since 1988. With his warm demeanor and extensive experience, Dr. Knight offers a refreshing approach to psychiatry. He received his MD from the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and honed his expertise during his residency at the Institute of Living and Hartford Hospital. Dr. Knight believes in tailoring treatment to each individual's unique needs. Through a blend of medication, therapy, and lifestyle adjustments, he collaborates closely with his clients, ensuring they feel heard and empowered throughout their journey to well-being.

Beyond his practice, Dr. Knight leads a vibrant life filled with diverse interests. From woodworking to outdoor adventures, he finds joy in every moment. Whether he's enjoying play time with his beloved dog, cherishing family activities (especially with his grandkids), or diving into new hobbies like piano and water coloring, Dr. Knight embraces life's opportunities with gusto. His commitment to personal growth is evident in his daily morning routine, where he dedicates time to meditation, affirmations, reading, writing, and exercise. You'll often find him immersed in literature, exploring classics and expanding his horizons. And when he's not in the midst of a good book, Dr. Knight delights in experimenting in the kitchen, watching a movie with his wife, working in the yard, and fixing things around the house. Join Dr. Knight on a journey of healing and discovery - where every step forward is met with compassion, understanding, and a genuine zest for life.
