Abbrielle Schenck
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-Associate
Sexual concerns are deeply personal and often shaped by shame, silence, or confusing messages about what your body, desires, or relationships are supposed to look like. Many clients come in carrying the weight of purity culture, religious or cultural expectations, or past experiences that taught them to disconnect from parts of themselves. I offer a safe, respectful space to explore issues related to desire, intimacy, boundaries, identity, and connection. My approach focuses on emotional safety, understanding root patterns, and building a healthier relationship with your body and sexuality. Whether you are navigating personal or relational struggles, you deserve care that is thoughtful, grounded, and nonjudgmental.

Aguirre Center for Inclusive Psychotherapy
Psychologist
Social anxiety can make connection feel risky, exhausting, or out of reach, even when you deeply want closeness. We help clients understand the fears, past experiences, and self-critical beliefs that may contribute to anxiety in social situations. Therapy can support greater self-confidence, emotional safety, and freedom to connect more authentically with others.

Marcus A. McDuffie Sr.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW-S, BCD
I’m especially interested in helping people who struggle with sexual concerns and intimacy, such as differences in desire, difficulty communicating about sex, sexual anxiety, shame or guilt, performance concerns, painful sex, changes in intimacy, or feeling disconnected from your body or partner. Sex therapy can be a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental place to explore what may be affecting your sexual well-being, better understand your needs and boundaries, improve communication, rebuild confidence, and create a healthier, more satisfying intimate life. The aim isn’t to pressure you toward any specific outcome, but to help you feel more informed, comfortable, connected, and empowered in your sexuality and relationships.
I also have experience with depression, anxiety, working with couples and families, dealing with grief and loss, work and career issues, PTSD and trauma-focused therapy, managing stress, ADHD, and many other therapeutic issues. My goal is to offer compassionate, personalized care that helps you understand yourself better, use your strengths, and make lasting changes.
