Hi! I'm Sand Chang, PhD (they/them), and I'm a Chinese American nonbinary psychologist and DEI consultant who works at the intersection of trans health, eating disorders, trauma recovery, and body liberation. I'm a Certified IFS therapist, consultant, and trainer, Body Trust provider, and EMDR therapist. I am passionate about integrating IFS and Somatic Experiencing. Supporting others’ learning process is one of my number one passions, and I feel grateful to have had opportunities to work with a wide range of groups and organizations. I started my teaching career in psychology graduate programs, and from there I branched out to provide trainings to educational institutions, medical systems, grassroots organizations, non-profits, startups, and the corporate sector. I've spent much of my career working in trans health and co-authored A Clinician's Guide to Gender Affirming Care, as well as the APA guidelines for working with trans communities and the WPATH Standards of Care Version 8.
