The ideal client is one who is ready for change and open to healing. I work with individuals with a variety of mental health issues, emergent spirituality concerns or finding oneself through life purpose utilizing Mindfulness-based practices, energy work among other techniques to help decrease stress and promote happiness.
I am certified in psychedelic assisted psychotherapy and help navigate entheogenic plant medicine work for optimization or to overcome childhood trauma.
My specialty is in Mindfulness Practices and Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy through MAPS. I incorporate techniques of Yoga, IFS, talk therapy, breath work, energy work and retreats to help promote healing. With an open mind and non-judgment, I utilize coaching and meditation practices in promoting well being in a holistic approach.
If you are ready to open up to the possibility of happiness in your life and what might be the barriers or resistance that are keeping you from living the fullness of what you can access in this lifetime. I believe we are the creators of our own life and when you are ready, a full life of joy awaits you.
