Kasey Scharnett King
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S, CST
Concerns related to sex or pornography use often involve secrecy, shame, and significant strain on relationships. Clients may seek therapy due to loss of trust, emotional distance, or difficulty regulating behavior despite negative consequences.
Therapy focuses on understanding the role these behaviors play, addressing underlying emotional and relational factors, and rebuilding trust where possible. Our approach is non-judgmental and structured, helping clients develop accountability, clarity, and healthier coping strategies while supporting relational repair when appropriate.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Sex and porn use are often talked about in extremes—either minimized or labeled in ways that don’t leave room for nuance. For many people, these patterns are tied to stress, coping, loneliness, shame, or ways of managing difficult emotions. What starts as something that provides relief or escape can become something that feels harder to control, especially when it begins to impact relationships, self-perception, or daily functioning. Cultural messages about sex—what’s acceptable, what’s taboo, what’s “too much”—can add another layer, often increasing secrecy and shame rather than helping you understand what’s actually going on.
At Nour Counseling, we approach this work without judgment or moralizing. We work with you to understand the patterns—what’s driving the behavior, what needs it’s meeting, and what’s making it hard to shift. From there, we actively build strategies to help you regain a sense of choice and alignment, whether that’s reducing use, setting boundaries, or developing alternative ways of coping and connecting. We also address the shame that often surrounds these experiences, along with the cultural and relational context shaping them, so you’re not navigating this in isolation. This is about helping you move toward a relationship with sex, your body, and your behavior that feels more intentional, more connected, and actually aligned with your values.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address sexual addiction with a compassionate and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and restoration. Recognizing the complexities of sexual addiction, I create a safe and non-judgmental space that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's grace and forgiveness. Combining evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a spiritual focus, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of addictive behaviors and develop strategies for recovery. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and a commitment to biblical principles of purity, I assist individuals in breaking free from the cycle of addiction. This integrated approach aims to support individuals in their journey toward sexual health, personal growth, and a deeper connection with their faith within the context of Christian values.
