Covid-19 & Accessibility

On Queer Time is a Covid-safer practice. This means that all sessions will be made accessible for immunocompromized and chonically ill people. Most sessions happen online. I offer in-person sessions in the open air, where a chance of transmission is significantly lower. In case of in-person sessions, we will discuss proper and sufficient risk mitigation strategies, using all available tools, such as masking, testing (Pluslife tests available at a surcharge), wastewater data, informed consent regarding exposure, etc.

In the sixth year of the Covid-19 pandemic, many disabled people live with chronic disenfranchised grief. Entering public spaces unmasked can be deadly for us. If we navigate these spaces masked, we risk othering and harassment. Either way, exclusion from public life compounds minority stress. In sessions, I always make space for sitting with the pandemic grief and finding pillars of resilience, be it community, activism, or simply offering yourself compassion while you are doing the labor none of us asked for.

I am committed to making On Queer Time as accessible as possible. Everybody’s access needs are different and what can look like access to some, can be an obstacle to others. My approach to access is to tailor it to individual clients’ needs. Therefore, I ask you to always let me know about your access needs at the start of our work together, and continuously about any changes as needed. 

Accessibility on this website is a work in progress. Since I am not a professional developer, and I am maintaining the website myself, I would be grateful for any feedback regarding accessibility issues that prevent you from using this website easily.

“Making way out of no way”

“Not all evil can be overcome in this world, and yet a postmodern womanist theology maintains hope in the struggle to creatively and constructively respond to it. Sometimes feelings of discord are the result of the conflicts in this world. Sometimes liberation is not possible, but survival and quality of life are. All-encompassing health, wholeness, unity, and salvation are never fully attained in this world. As we constantly become, we are constantly vulnerable to evil and constantly capable of overcoming it. … A postmodern womanist theology strives for tangible representations of the good. The good includes justice, equality, discipleship, quality of life, acceptance and inclusion.”

Monica Coleman, Making a Way Out of No Way: A Womanist Theology, quoted in Tricia Hersey, Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto
