Something had to be done—if not about the disease, then at least about our imagining of it.

Consult With Me

From Accommodations to Inclusion

Your clients deserve a relationship where they don't have to leave part of themselves at the door. Ableism and microaggressions don't always look like exclusion. Sometimes they show up in the small moments between clinician and client: a tone of surprise at a client's independence, an assumption about what they can or can't handle, a comment meant as encouragement that lands as pity. 


Clients notice these moments, even when they're unintentional, and it shapes whether a client feels truly safe with you.

Who Is Consultation For?

1:1 Consultation

The best clinicians are always expanding what "client-centered care" actually means. Understanding how medical trauma shows up in the room, how ableism hides inside standard treatment frameworks, and how disability shapes relationships and identity isn't extra credit. It's how you meet your clients where they actually are.

Group Consultation

Want your whole team on the same page? I offer live trainings (either in person or virtually) shaped around how your practice actually works. Maybe that's a single 90-minute workshop to get everyone grounded in the basics, or a longer series that goes deeper over time. Either way, your team walks away with real, usable tools to help every client feel seen, respected, and genuinely cared for.

Hospital & Healthcare System Trainings

Want every patient to feel truly seen, not just treated? I'll work with your team to bring disability-affirming training into your setting, whether that's one department or a bigger system-wide push. We'll shape the content to fit where it's needed most, whether that's inpatient, outpatient, or a specialty unit. 


The goal is simple: staff who feel confident and equipped, and patients who feel genuinely understood at every step of their care.

Nonprofits & Organizations

Your team shows up every day for disabled and chronically ill people. None of us are immune to internalized ableism or small, unintentional microaggressions, even the most caring teams. Everyone walks away more self-aware and ready to offer care that truly reflects the people you serve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach out to  Samantha@InclusiveIntimacy.org if you cannot find an answer to your question.

No. This is consultation focused on creating an inclusive and affirming practice. It's not a substitute for clinical supervision, and I'm not reviewing your work for licensure purposes.


Not at all! If you see clients, you likely have disabled or chronically ill clients, whether or not it's been named. This consultation is as useful for a general practice as for a specialized one.


1:1 consultation often starts exactly there. We can work case by case or build toward a broader shift in how you practice. Whatever you need at this time. I do request you keep identifying details to a minimum to ensure client confidentiality. It's a small world and keeps getting smaller.


I tailor the format and length to your team's needs, anywhere from a single 90-minute session to a multi-part series.
