Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
In therapy sessions, I leverage my expertise in kink and sex-positive/affirming approaches to create a nonjudgmental and inclusive space where clients feel comfortable exploring their sexual identities and desires. By integrating these perspectives into therapy, I aim to empower clients to embrace their sexuality authentically and navigate their relationships and experiences with confidence and self-acceptance.

Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Sexual concerns can affect both individuals and couples, often leading to frustration, shame, or disconnection. Whether you’re struggling with desire differences, performance anxiety, intimacy challenges, or the impact of past experiences, therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore these issues. My approach focuses on open communication, education, and practical strategies to reduce anxiety and increase pleasure, connection, and confidence. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more comfortable in your body, more connected in your relationships, and more empowered in your sexual well-being.
