About Me

I am a licensed psychologist in California with a Doctorate of Psychology (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology from Alliant International University, San Francisco and over a decade of education and experience in the field.

I am a member of Bay Area Open Minds and Kink Aware Professionals and I have specialized training in working with non-traditional sexual and gender identities (LGBTQIA+, trans/non-binary, etc.) and relationship orientations (ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, BDSM/kink, etc.).

  • Gender-Affirming Surgery Evaluations (2023)
