I am a psychiatrist with a wide array of interests and skills, including psychedelic medicines such as Ketamine for the use of Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. I have completed level one training in Internal Family Systems, or IFS. IFS can be done effectively virtually or in person, with or without psychedelic medicine, and eventually, on one's own without the help of a therapist. It is a transformational, deep healing of the wounded/burdened parts of our inner children that affect how we live and relate to the world as adults, often resulting in self-sabotage.
My specialty area is complex PTSD. I have been doing Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy for 4 years and have training in other psychedelic medicines. Using these medicines with IFS can be especially effective, as is IFS alone. Both psychedelic medicines and IFS open the same portal that allow one to access Self compassion and other deeply healing Self qualities
After almost 20 years in practice, I have come to great understanding of the human psyche and its power of influence over all areas of our lives. Without deep emotional transformation of our childhood wounds, we will continue to re-enact our family of origin trauma throughout our lifetime. If you are ready to break this cycle and look inward, IFS is for you.
