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.

Paul D. Myers MA LPC Supervisor
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
Counseling has been my life's calling since I was 17 years old! 40,000 counseling sessions later, I am still just as passionate about helping others as when I first started. Seeking help means you are taking responsibility for your life and I applaud you for that. My approach to therapy is warm, objective, and empathetic. I work hard to create a judgement free space, that originates from a Christian faith based perspective. I want therapy to be concrete for practical application and for you to feel confident in implementing tools after you leave. It has been extremely rewarding to help over 10,000 families heal from a wide variety of struggles and I would be honored to partner with you towards meeting your goals.
My wife and I own and manage a group counseling clinic with 8 clinicians total that we train and manage. Dont hesitiate to ask if you have any questions before we get started.

Dr. Sharese Martin
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Thank you for entering my counseling profile. I encourage people through partnership, mutual respect, trust, and goal alignment. I offer non-biased psychotherapy to clients ages four and up and from various backgrounds. We will work together to achieve your individual goals. We will consider a range of influences such as (1) your own motivation and biological environment; (2) your immediate surroundings including your family; and (3) your interactions within larger environmental systems consisting of society and culture. By using this holistic approach, I am certain that a positive change will take place.
