work with the honey badger
Peer Support & Whole-Life Care
Certified Peer Specialist — Mental Health (CPS-MH, PBT). Direct pay. Sliding scale. The person who shows up when other people stop returning calls.
how i price
- Peer support sessions start at $20 / hour. Phone, video, or in person on the Red Bullet route. Rates rise for specialty work (crisis-adjacent, group facilitation, legal accompaniment).
- Everything else is contract-based. Hoarding recovery, PCA, caregiving, cleaning, yard work, cooking, transportation, advocacy, website help — priced by the job so it's fair to both of us. We agree on scope before any money moves.
- Direct pay, with dignity. Most of the people I work with are moving from survival to stability. If you can't pay today, we start where you are — SSDI application, food stamps, reinstating benefits, finding you state-funded or free treatment. Nobody gets turned away for being broke. Nobody gets kept for being broke, either — we work the plan together.
- Heart of Care Full Spectrum Community Treatment Services is the umbrella. If I'm not the right fit, I'll help you find who is.
