Coming Soon (hopefully): Psychedelic Assisted Therapy

  • It is anticipated that MDMA (molly/ecstasy) will be federally approved by the end of 2024 for the treatment of PTSD. In anticipation, I have received education in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy through MAPS, the organization leading the research trials of MDMA for the treatment of PTSD. I intend to further my training and seek certification once legalization occurs and a pathway for provision of this treatment is established. UPDATE: The FDA failed to approve the application and additional research is being conducted.

  • Given the increased use of chemical and plant medicines to expand consciousness and address mental health concerns, I am dedicated to supporting seekers to not only minimize potential pitfalls but also make the most of their experiences. Psychedelics are sacred, powerful substances and their usage can be transformative. They can also be terrifying, dysregulating and dangerous. I participate in a number of organizations supporting harm reduction and the ethical use of plant medicines including the Psychedelic Guide Network and American Psychedelic Practitioners Association. In the interest of harm reduction I am offering preparation and integrations services. More information below…

Prep and Integration Services

(for those engaging with these medicines on their own)

Psychedelic Preparation

Preparation (pre-dose or pre-ceremony) sessions are helpful because it’s been found that one’s environmental and inner influences - often referred to as ‘set and setting’ - can have a significant impact on the psychedelic experience. Preparation can reduce the occurrence of a challenging experience or “bad trip”.

During preparation sessions I will help you:

  • identify your intentions for the medicine work

  • work with any parts of you that are anxious

  • establish safety protocols to mitigate the chances of a challenging trip

  • decide on a meaningful ritual for your journey

  • develop practices to mitigate anxiety and deal with frightening or challenging aspects of the journey

  • learn to trust your inner healing intelligence, present moment awareness and beginner’s mind

Psychedelic Integration

Integration sessions help you to make sense of your experiences and translate them into new behaviors in your daily life. Most psychedelic guides say that integration is as important as the psychedelic journey itself.

During integration sessions I will help you:

  • take advantage of the period of increased neuroplasticity to bring your experience into your daily life

  • make a plan for real, lasting behavioral changes in all realms of your life

  • bring into alignment the different aspects of your self - physical, emotional, spiritual, mental

  • process any challenging aspects of the journey to relieve distress and prevent long term damage

  • explore how to improve existing relationships with self and others

  • work with any material or parts that need a deeper dive
