CONTACT
Q: How can we work with each other?
A: The best way is to join the Learning Garden. Plus, I sometimes announce events where I offer services or groups, online or physically. There are several ways we can connect one-on-one. While I prefer referrals by word of mouth, will welcome anyone well-intentioned with an open mind. Click a topic to learn more about: body art sessions, herbal care, remote energy work, astrological analysis, + spiritual advisory. I am not presently offering card readings by booking, though I still do oracular work with mentorship, events, spiritual advisory, or body art sessions. Prospective collaborators can email me a proposal.
Q: Do you give support to survivors?
A: Yes, I provide supplementary care + referrals. If you're asking about case management, then no (please contact an emergency service). What I can do, includes offering survivor-oriented + trauma-informed care through any of the services you see here. I can also direct you to who may be able to help if I cannot, + suggest you check out the Resources page or Blog for free content. Some free content, you may have to email to ask for, so we can keep it secure + in the right hands. If you are a company, collective or organization seeking how to better understand + support survivors: I do offer consultation + ethics oversight.
Q: Do you offer sliding scale or scholarships?
A: Yes, to BIPOC (Brown or Indigenous, people of color, including Asian), transgender, Intersex, homeless individuals + refugees. I can only offer scholarships for services, not for materials, + cannot offer them all of the time to conserve my well-being. They are awarded by discretion, dependent on situation + what service it is for. I will not reply to implied or demanded free labor. Internships are an alternative option, open to all.

“Emergence,” a poem
“A Mirror: What Cats Truly See”
“It Is Here I Speak Silently”
◌
I shed the scales
that were engrained into my
genetic integrity, so they drop
off my skin
one by one.
From the bones that built
this sanctuary of a body
shelter from the storm,
to the break of a nail
whole, I become.
Within a flame of the
ancestors who brought me here,
I break down my doubt
I demolish my fear
good riddance, my threshold.
Only I will, swiftly and alone
surpass each gateway,
outward from here
this chest pounds courage
into my capillaries, threefold.
By virtue of knowing what
spot is tender on this skull, I hone
its sensitivity, an Achilles Heel
to a hum of heart-space
giving guidance by tone.
Saying “Listen in the cold,
for it is
your Mother.
Sip in the boiling sun,
for it is
your Father.”
I follow suit.
In the presence of extremities,
when my wounds are wet
and faintly dripping
I hear an earthen child calling,
their embrace an honor.
She has chosen her guardian
to be the one who fought for
what’s lashed and plagued her,
taking the whip
instead turning it against
the predator.
