Nurse Daniel in front of a two flags: asexual pride and progress pride.
Nursing is an art: 
and if it is to be made an art, 
it requires an exclusive devotion 
as hard a preparation, 
any painter’s or sculptor’s work; 

for what is the having to do 
with dead canvas or dead marble, 
compared with having to do 
with the living body, 
the temple of [the] spirit? 

It is one of the Fine Arts: 
I had almost said, 
the finest of Fine Arts.

Offered services

Transgender Health

As a transgender provider I recognize that gender identity influences how we interact with the world, however not all transgender/GNC clients may need to see a "gender therapist" 

Disability health

As a disabled provider I am able to provide client-centered care in an understanding setting without judgement.

Medication Management

Psychiatric medication may make the difference between stability and instability.  We can discuss what options may help you best.

Chronic pain and substance use

All individuals deserve compassionate care.  Those with a substance use history still deserve access to appropriate treatment of pain and evidence based medication for substance use disorder treatment. 

Curriculum vitae

Neurodivergence diagnosis

Learn more about the formal assessment process for neurodivergence. I use an affirming, MIGDAS-2 based protocol based assessment for Autism, and a DIVA-5 based protocol for ADHD.  For those who desire or require a formal diagnosis, I can make this process as comfortable and empowering as possible. 

Consultations and training presentations

If you're looking for professional consultation (ongoing or one time) regarding the care of your clients with embodied transgender/queer, disabled/chronic pain, and/or neurodivergence experience, feel free to reach out to me.

I can also help with letter writing (ex: affirming referral letters for surgeries, disability accommodations letters for school or work, parking permit forms, statements of medical necessity for emotional support or psychiatric service animals). 
I offer 101 level and beyond trainings on these same topics.  I can support a  sliding scale fee structure for not-for-profit organizations. I have a broad network of providers who have expertise on other topics.
