If my fee is currently unaffordable, or I am unable to accommodate new clients, I have brilliant associates in my practice who have similar training, background and specialties as I do. They are like-minded in my approach, and could not come more highly recommended.

Feel free to reach out to them directly.

Daniel Gradias

Daniel graduated from Antioch University with a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology, where he specialized in LGBT Affirmative Therapy. He was inspired by his coursework on queer development and approaches queer identity from an affirmative stance. He completed his pre-degree traineeship at APLA Health which is an organization that has been on the forefront of HIV-related care since the onset of the AIDS epidemic. He has worked with clients on a range of issues such as addiction recovery, eating disorder recovery, trauma-related stress, gender exploration, internal criticism, perfectionism, and HIV-related topics. He comes from an LGBT-affirming, sex-positive stance, and is interested in working with individuals and couples who are navigating consensual non-monogamy and/or non-traditional relationship structures. He works with individual adults and couples.

Ali Goldsmith

Ali completed her BA in Psychology at Duke University, MA at New York University, and is currently pursuing her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (PsyD) at Pepperdine University. With a belief that healing is most effective when involving both the body and mind, she sees somatic and mindfulness techniques as powerful ways to calm the nervous system and lead to deeper insight. Trained in arts therapies and with a background in dance, she is skilled at tapping into her client’s creativity to manage stress and process the impacts of traumatic experiences. She also believes that healing the self often involves recognizing how we’ve been shaped and harmed by larger systems and expectations. This shifts our focus away from symptoms and diagnoses and towards a critical understanding of how our world can inhibit our potential. She is passionate about working with young adults, the queer community, survivors of trauma, and those experiencing life transitions, relationship challenges, or questions of identity.
