Michelle can personally for Ariyan’s warm presence and justice-orientated practice from working with her for years at an NGO. 

As Michelle does not believe in expansionism or profiting from someone else’s labour Ariyan is being promoted not as an employee or contractor or in any way that Michelle will financially benefit – only as a option for the overflow of referrals wanting an anti-oppressive practitioner.
