Solidarity

Sliding Scale

One way I offer solidarity is via sliding scale sessions. Please let me know if you are interested in sliding scale work (contact me before booking your appointment). I promise not to grill you about your financial situation. Connecting in advance helps me with my planning and record keeping, and it can help establish trust and clear expectations between us.

My sliding scale work is especially intended for Black and indigenous folks, and anyone else who has experienced or inherited the generational trauma of exploitation, dispossession, or displacement.

In order to have a lasting effect, I encourage clients paying on a sliding scale to commit to a series of treatments over time, at a price that is sustainable for you.

Solidarity with Local Workers

Retail, service industry, and blue collar workers who work within Uptown Oakland or the Mission District get $20 off at their neighborhood office. Use the coupon code 94612 (Uptown) or 94110 (Mission) when scheduling online.

Advocacy, In-Kind Donations, Fundraising

I occasionally use my platform to advocate and raise funds for an organization or campaign whose work provides a meaningful intervention in this beautiful, difficult world. This advocacy shows up in my sporadic newsletter, or on this page here (I don’t proselytize during treatment, but am happy to talk politics if you want to). I also offer manual therapy treatment and other forms of labor directly in support of various efforts. Feel free to reach out with requests.

Below are some of the organizations I've supported over the years, whether financially, with in-kind donations, or with organizational labor. Each one of these are doing excellent and meaningful work, and could use your support.
