Hi there, I’m Ben King (he/him), a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who works with both couples and individual clients.

I help my clients show up more fully in their lives and relationships - especially when things feel difficult or uncertain. My work is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and a commitment to helping each couple I work with build a relationship that's more connected, and a life that feels more meaningful.

In my work with couples, I help partners move out of cycles of blame or distance and back into genuine connection. That often means slowing things down, understanding what each person is really trying to communicate, and finding new ways to repair and rebuild trust.

With individuals, I help clients untangle patterns of anxiety, self-criticism, and people-pleasing that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected from who they really are or want to be. Together, we explore what truly matters to you and work toward creating a life that feels genuine and fulfilling - one guided by your values, not by pressure or perfection.

Whether you’re coming in as a couple or individually, my goal is to create a space that feels honest, supportive, and real. Therapy isn’t about assigning blame - it’s about understanding each other, reconnecting, and rebuilding.

Before joining The Therapy Group, I earned my Master’s in Couple & Family Therapy at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. I’m trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based approaches that I tailor to fit your needs.

Outside of therapy, you’ll probably find me relaxing with my family, biking, or birding with my wife - all things that help me slow down and stay present in my own life!
