FAQ
How much does it cost?
I offer a sliding fee scale, and I don’t require a household income disclosure. This means that I don’t require you to tell me how much you make and then pay me according to your income. Please call me at 612-462-3707 to discuss your fee.

I hear you work a lot with queer and trans folks. What’s your approach with us?
I do work a lot with queer and trans youth and adults, and the important people in their lives. (I’ve written books and several articles about this) I do not work from a conventional psychological/medical model—my work is informed by queer theory and critical intersectional feminism. This means I understand that identities can be ever-changing and fluid, and that people get to make decisions about their identities and expressions of self. It also means that I am attentive to the ways cultural and social norms and systems of power impact people who occupy non-normative identities, and that I recognize the ingenuity and courage queer, trans, non-binary, and gender creative people employ to navigate the world of heteronormativity, homonormativity, and cisnormativity. Finally, being queer theory and feminist informed means that I also attend to the intersections of white supremacy, classism, patriarchy, xenophobia, adultism, ableism, and other systems of oppression that effect people. (Oh, it also means that we can talk about unicorns.)

Believe me—I can talk a lot of dense theory and carry on about a lot of big effing ideas— but that’s not what you’re here for, and this isn’t about me, it’s about you and your life. It’s my job to *get* you and respond to you on your terms, in your terms.
I begin every relationship with potential clients with a brief phone call (there’s no fee or obligation).
