Psychologist, Generalist
Scope of Practice:
At Bowen Center, we get to opt into getting additional training to better serve both lesbian, gay, and bisexual populations as well as transgender and gender variant populations, requiring ongoing continuing education to provide better quality care to members of these communities. I have both the lesbian, gay, and bisexual populations and the transgender and gender variant populations added to my scope of practice.
