Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
In my practice, I utilize a combination of therapeutic modalities including art therapy, CBT, and person-centered therapy to address LGBT issues with empathy and understanding. By incorporating compassion focus therapy and narrative therapy techniques, I create a supportive space for individuals to explore their unique experiences and challenges related to their sexual orientation or gender identity. Additionally, I may integrate family systems therapy to help clients navigate familial dynamics and cultivate acceptance and support within their social environment, empowering them to embrace their identities authentically.

Daniel McNulty
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
It is important for me to address LGBT issues with sensitivity and respect for individual experiences. By incorporating Attachment-based techniques, I explore the impact of early relational dynamics on clients' identities and relationships within the LGBT community. Additionally, I draw upon Mindfulness-Based approaches and Trauma Focused interventions to support clients in navigating the unique challenges and societal pressures they may face, fostering self-acceptance and resilience in their journey towards authenticity and empowerment.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
As an advocate for equality in the practice of psychotherapy over the years, I have seen many individuals and couples who are gay, lesbian or bisexual. I am aware of the negative effects of being "in the closet" and of the oppression of societal judgment. I am aware that Lesbians, Gay men, and Bisexual folks have unique challenges. However, many of their relationship issues are like those of heterosexual couples. I have written 4 books on Relationships (see "The Dance of Love" and other titles on Amazon). I offer free zoom seminars, which are helpful to LGBT individuals and couples. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Exploring your identity and navigating relationships in a world that doesn’t always feel accepting can be both empowering and challenging. I provide an affirming, safe space for LGBTQIA+ individuals to process their experiences, build resilience, and celebrate who they are. Whether you’re working through coming out, family or relationship stress, discrimination, or simply wanting a therapist who understands your lived experience, my approach is compassionate, supportive, and tailored to your unique journey. Therapy is a place where you can be fully yourself—seen, respected, and empowered to thrive.
