People are questioning their path in life, longing for connection, and seeking to align with a deeper sense of meaning and purpose.

 Psychedelic medicines can support people through this process of rediscovering who they truly are because they help to catalyze change. 

They can show us the path, but they can't make us walk it. 

And walking it, well...that's the hard part, which is why people need a lot of support on the journey.  

My Approach

As a licensed psilocybin facilitator, I am committed to assisting clients in reclaiming wholeness at any or all levels of being, such as spirit, body, emotions, mind, relationships with self, others, and nature.

I honor all peoples and all paths as sacred. We each are spiritual beings having a human experience with the opportunity to learn and grow. For each of us, our Soul is where unconditional love, unending forgivingness, compassion, harmony, peace, and joy reside. 

I view all of existence as sacred and interconnected and provide services with reverence and respect for all. Healing relationships occur within all of existence and may include people, animals, plants, land, and the environment, locally, globally, and cosmically.

I offer care to beings regardless of race, sex, cultural, national, or ethnic origins, or political persuasions. I respect the beliefs, values, customs, choices and coping mechanisms of the individual.

I work with clients in equal partnership in the process of healing. Ultimately my desire is for you to develop deeper trust in your own inherent gifts, strengths, and ability to heal.

I am committed to my own ongoing personal growth work and utilize peer review and consultation as a self-revelatory process.

Upcoming Events

What is a psilocybin facilitator?

A facilitator is there to guide a client through the three phases of psychedelic therapy. The first phase, preparation, requires the facilitator to ensure that a client is sufficiently ready for the sometimes life-changing experience. Through the facilitator’s guidance, a patient can feel more grounded prior to the psychedelic session and clear about the intention for the experience. 

The second phase, the experience or journey, is what most people think of when considering psychedelics. The facilitator is there to accompany the client through the experience. During the session they provide support and reassurance, ensuring the client is safe throughout.

The third and final phase requires the client and facilitator work together to synthesize and interpret any insights from the psychedelic session which helps the client integrate learnings into the wider context of their life. 

My Intentions for this Work

To serve humanity and Planet Earth for the greater good through divine connection and creating right relationship with all of life. My desire is to “PLANT GOOD SEEDS IN THE HEART OF HUMANITY.”

 I offer my knowledge, gifts, and skills in service to humanity with full respect for the dignity, autonomy, and sensitivity of fellow beings. 

 My intention is to offer care from an infinite field of love and compassion.

I see myself as a guide in support of your process. In this role, I will hold a safe space for whatever might arise, while providing protection and reassurance.

I believe that every person has innate healing capacities that can be enhanced and supported through self-care practices.

How are psilocybin journeys conducted?

There are a few different options for your experience, including 1:1 and group journeys.

Psilocybin journeys can offer various benefits, including enhanced self-awareness, personal growth, emotional healing, and expanded consciousness. Many individuals report profound insights, increased mindfulness, and positive shifts in their perspectives and behaviors after a psilocybin journey.

Before the journey, we will meet for preparatory sessions to clarify your intentions which will help you make the most of the experience.

Most importantly is that you will receive a supportive and controlled environment for your mushroom experience. As your facilitator, I will be there to ensure your safety and well-being throughout the journey. You may experience altered perceptions, heightened emotions, and a deep sense of connection. Every aspect of the setting will help to guide and enhance your journey experience,

To enhance the set and setting, I offer the use of an eye mask to promote introspection, and headphones with peaceful and mindfully curated music to create a soothing and supportive auditory environment.

After your journey we will meet for integration sessions to help you utilize the gained insights and emotions from your experience, and process them into desired areas of your life. Integration is the process that turns your intentions into reality. Examples of intentions may involve taking ownership of mistakes, speaking your truth, or reconnecting with the parts of yourself that you may have turned away from in the past. It is this wholeness, this ownership of all parts of ourselves, that creates the strong, sovereign, calm foundations the rest of your life can be built upon.
