About Us
Hello! I am Tobi (they/them). I’m a disabled trans, autistic accredited social worker. I specialise in mental health supports for queer, trans, and neurodivergent people, as well as somatic (body-based) trauma treatments. I live and work in the Brisbane area of Queensland, Australia, on the unceded lands of the Turrbal and Yuggera people.
As a trans and neurodivergent person myself, I have struggled to find affirming providers of mental health and allied health services. I’ve also struggled to find safe, affirming places to work where I can bring my whole selves to our practice – so I created my own.
What We’re Trying To Do
- Provide queer-run, queer-affirming services in the Brisbane area
- Provide autistic-run, neurodivergent-affirming services in the Brisbane area
- Provide support for folks at affordable sliding-scale rates
- Provide office space to other trans-identified allied health practitioners for a very small contribution to running costs that is a fraction of commercial rent
- Create a safe space for queer and trans folks come to that doesn’t share facilities with unaffirming co-tenants
- Run small classes, groups, and social events as a hub for finding queer and trans community
