For pilots who need the Gender Dysphoria Status Report
As a licensed clinical psychologist, FAA/HIMS trained aviation psychologist, and pilot, I meet the WPATH criteria required to complete the FAA Gender Dysphoria Mental Health Status Report paperwork. The paperwork has to be completed by a qualified provider and has to meet the FAA's requirements. That is what this evaluation does.
This evaluation is for pilots and pilot applicants who need a Gender Dysphoria Mental Health Status Report to satisfy FAA aeromedical certification requirements. That applies whether this is your first time completing the paperwork or a required follow-up evaluation.
What the evaluation covers
Mental Health History
A thorough review of your mental health history as it relates to FAA certification requirements.
Gender Dysphoria History
A review of your history of gender dysphoria consistent with WPATH criteria the FAA requires.
Required Paperwork
Completion of the FAA Gender Dysphoria Mental Health Status Report documentation.
The evaluation lasts up to 120 minutes, during which I'll thoroughly review your mental health history and history of gender dysphoria with you.
Three steps from consultation to completed paperwork
Free 15-Minute Consultation
We talk about your situation, what documentation the FAA or your AME has requested, and what to expect from the evaluation.
The Evaluation

Paperwork Completed

“I am one of the few licensed intersex psychologists in the nation, and I bring my own experience to this work.”

Why pilots come to me for this evaluation
Personal Experience
I am one of the few licensed intersex psychologists in the nation, and I bring my own experience to this work. I also collaborate with neurologists, geneticists, endocrinologists, and human development experts on research into best practices and development within the LGBTQIA+ community.
LGBTQIA+ Clinical Background
I have worked in LGBTQIA+ centers in several parts of the country, much of it with transgender and non-binary clients.
45+ States, One License
Through my PSYPACT license, I can see people in states where LGBTQIA+ friendly services are under threat.
An FAA/HIMS Trained Psychologist Who's Also a Pilot
I understand the aeromedical certification process from the pilot's side as well as the clinical side. My FAA/HIMS training covers the FAA's aeromedical standards and special issuance process, and I write reports that are clear and complete for the FAA.
One fee covers the evaluation and the paperwork
The evaluation fee is $550, which includes the assessment and paperwork completion.
