The Queer Hub is self-pay only at this time. This allows me to keep our work flexible, client-centered, and free from insurance limitations.

Nope! A formal diagnosis is not required. Whether you have an official diagnosis or simply identify as neurodivergent or queer, you are welcome here. You know yourself best. To be clear, that’s because I’m not treating a diagnosis — we’re working on what you want your daily life to look like. I don’t assess or diagnose anything.
-
Right now all coaching is done virtually, which means you can work with me from the comfort of your own space — no commuting, no overwhelming waiting rooms. As The Queer Hub grows, in-person options may become available depending on local need.
-
Phone calls can be a lot — I get it! Getting started is low pressure. Simply reach out via email and we’ll have a casual intro chat to get to know each other and figure out if we’re a good fit. No pressure, no scripts.
-
I never want cost to be a barrier to getting support. Sliding scale rates and payment plans may be available depending on your situation. Just reach out and let’s talk — we’ll figure something out together.
-
No. This is coaching and education — practical, goal-focused work on routines, environments, sensory needs, and self-advocacy. It is not therapy, not occupational therapy, and not medical or mental health care. I don’t evaluate, diagnose, or treat. No provider–patient relationship is created, and nothing here replaces your own care team.

No. I’m a licensed occupational therapist, and that training shapes how I think about sensory systems, routines, and daily life. But I’m not practicing occupational therapy here and I’m not your OT. The Queer Hub is coaching. If you need actual OT — an evaluation, sensory integration therapy, anything clinical — you need a licensed OT in your own state, and I’m glad to help you look.

Then I’ll tell you, and I’ll help you find the right person. Coaching works well for a lot of things and it isn’t the right tool for everything. If something comes up that needs a therapist, a doctor, or a clinical OT, saying so is part of my job — not a failure of yours.
