Testimony
I worked with a woman to overcome sexual incompatibility. Her testimonial is below:
Working with Kelley has revealed so much to my husband and me.
The process has shown us that our disconnect in the bedroom was not simply limited to our intimate life—it spilled over into every single aspect of our marriage. Learning how to bond with one another through the act of touching—both intimately and affectionately—has been truly enlightening. In the short time we’ve been seeing Kelley, we have really quite evolved as a couple. We are now getting along quite well—both inside and outside of the bedroom. Although we were both apprehensive about seeing a sexologist, Kelley’s lively, yet professional manner put us completely at ease; we could not recommend her more enthusiastically.

I worked with a young woman to overcome low sexual desire.
Kelley is an invaluable resource to me. She has helped me through many issues, both physical and mental. My visits are always comfortable, professional, and fun!

I taught a 14-week class on sexuality to adults during a Sunday school class at an Asheville church. I was asked to teach it again because of the great response.
I don’t know whose idea it was to offer the “Our Whole Lives” adult program as a Sunday school class this fall, or to ask Kelley to teach the class, but it has been an incredible class. Every single Sunday, I have learned or heard something in the class that has really made me think about my relationships with other people and with God during the week. I have been encouraged and enlightened so many times in this class. Honestly, I would say this has been a life-changing class for me, as it has led me to make some real changes in how I communicate with my partner, my children, and with others in our church. I know this may sound strange as I’m talking about a Sunday school class that is about sex, but the discussions we have each week in that class are truly incredible.”

I teach classes at the Center for Creative Retirement. Here are some the participant’s evaluation comments.
“The instructor was excellent. She created a very comfortable environment for everyone to participate and does a fine job communicating. She has an excellent sense of humor and deals with everyone with grace. I look forward to taking another course from Kelley.”
“She is extraordinarily effective at introducing/handling intimate matters in a relaxed and professional way. The response of our other classmates is, we believe, testimony to the importance of this subject as well as to her professional effectiveness.”
“This was the most valuable class I’ve ever taken at CCR, partially due to the subject matter, but due to the openness of the participants on a subject that could have been maudlin and an embarrassment if not presented tastefully and expertly. Kelley led us through several topics that might have been a bit taboo, although obviously only relatively open students would have registered for the class. We had couples and singles in the group – almost all offered input and comments during class discussions Kelley is terrific! Hope she is encouraged to offer more classes in CCR. And…this was the only class I’ve taken where virtually all the participants were reluctant to go on breaks, and we stayed well beyond the scheduled finish time (as much as 20 minutes).
“Great course, great instructor, great topic. One of the best courses that I have taken at NCCCR. Complex subject presented in a very open and very respectful way. Great class discussion got everyone involved. The class became a safe place to remember the sexual atmosphere that we grew up in, to reflect how that upbringing affected our lives to this point, and to choose the attitudes that make sense to us for the rest of our lives. I would love to have more NCCCR courses on this topic and from this instructor.”

“My name is CC and I am a former student. I took your women’s health my graduating semester at UNCAand I was profoundly inspired by your class. I appreciated your free spirit and your passion for sexuality and women’s health. I have wanted to write to you for a while and let you know what a huge impact your class, your energy, and your thoughtful presence meant for me in my life. Thank you for all you do for women. It really does make a huge difference.”
