About me... I am a licensed psychologist, practicing in Los Altos, California. I enjoy helping people to find creative ways to solve problems and become more fully themselves. I offer a warm and supportive environment which affirms the diversity of each individual. Payment options (a) For those without insurance: I offer a sliding scale fee based on household income, and a free initial consultation upon request, to those who do not have insurance or another third-party payment option. (b) For those with insurance: I am a member of the Aetna, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, Magellan, and Medicare panels. If you participate in a different 3rd-party payment plan which reimburses you for visits with out-of-network providers, I will provide you with documentation of your fee payment, which you can submit to your insurance company in turn. If your 3rd-party payor does not reimburse you for visits with out-of-network providers, then the sliding scale alternative is available as described above. Other recommended resources include: Poly Friendly Professionals List, created and maintained by Joe Decker. Kink Aware Professionals List, created and maintained by NCSF.

My specialties include: Relationship counseling, depression, anxiety, self esteem, substance abuse, internet addiction, personal growth, anger management, codependency, emotional abuse survivor issues, career issues, and coming out. I welcome clients from a variety of subcultures, including bisexual, lesbian, gay, transgender, bdsm, polyamory, hiv/poz, pagan, goth, geek, etc. Some resources I've created are...
