A San Francisco psychologist accused of doing more than talk therapy will be in court today to enter a plea. Steven Allan Korn, 61, is accused of twice having sex with a twentysomething female patient -- during therapy sessions, on the clock.
Korn is charged with two counts of a very specific crime: Sexual Exploitation by a Psychotherapist [Business and Professions Code section 729(a)]. Those charges are both misdemeanors and carry penalties of up to six months in county jail.
He was arrested on July 21 following an investigation by both the state's Medical Board and the DA's office. The DA is urging anyone who believes they were treated inappropriately by Korn to call (415) 551-9569.
