My name is Elliott (they/ask)

I am a white, genderfluid, intersex, neurodivergent and multiply disabled person embracing an anti-racist and intersectional disability-centered framework. 

I bring my experience as an IHSS worker, queer youth advocate and volunteer crisis counselor, as well as lived-experience-informed support. I have thoroughly enjoyed my work as an IHSS provider and have spent time helping my clients create care instruction documents, call providers, attend medical appointments, and help coordinate their care. 

In addition to my own gender transition, I have created resource lists (for example my list of OBGYNs in NorCal who do gender affirming hysterectomies), helped others legally change their name, and provided post-op peer support.

I am a certified Medi-Cal Peer Support Specialist and Psychological First Aid provider. I am trained on HIPAA compliance, trauma informed care, suicide and risk assessment, and SOGIE (sexual orientation and gender identity and expression).

I’m based on Ohlone land (“Bay Area”) and serve anyone in the so called “United States”.

My Medi-Cal Peer Support Specialist certification informs my approach to peer support and advocacy. My independent practice is private-pay and is not a Medi-Cal provider or a provider of Medi-Cal-reimbursed Peer Support Services. My work is not therapy, legal advice, medical advice, or crisis intervention.
