Marni Scott, LCSW
Adults Therapist
With 30 years of experience, Marni Scott, LCSW, brings both depth and warmth to her work with adults navigating life’s many challenges. She specializes in treating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, life transitions, and building skills around healthy boundaries and assertive communication.
Marni uses evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and incorporates practical tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Her therapy style is strengths-based, direct yet compassionate, and rooted in self-compassion. She focuses on helping clients increase their psychological flexibility: the ability to stay grounded in the present while moving toward a life aligned with their values.
Outside the therapy room, Marni enjoys spending time with her family, discovering new restaurants across Kansas City, cheering on the Chiefs and Royals, diving into a good book, and listening to music.
