Kasey Scharnett King
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S, CST
You may find yourself having the same conversations over and over, feeling misunderstood, or noticing distance where there used to be connection. Maybe communication turns into conflict, or things go quiet and unresolved. Intimacy may feel strained, inconsistent, or absent altogether. You care about the relationship, but something isn’t working—and you’re not sure how to change it.
This is a space grounded in intention, honesty, and meaningful connection. You can speak openly here, be challenged with clarity, and begin developing the skills needed to create lasting change in your relationships.
We understand that talking about relationship and intimacy concerns can feel vulnerable. You don’t have to navigate that alone. Our role is to meet you with respect, professionalism, and directness—guiding the conversations that are often difficult to have, but necessary for growth.
You can expect a calm, steady presence and an approach that balances emotional insight with practical tools. This is not about perfection. It is about taking responsibility, increasing awareness, and learning how to show up differently—for yourself and within your relationships.

Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Therapy can offer a space to better understand yourself and the experiences that have shaped you. I help adults make sense of trauma, neurodivergence, burnout, identity, and life transitions by understanding their experiences within the context of their relationships, environments, and the systems they have navigated. Together, we'll build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change in a compassionate, collaborative space.
