Farshid Farrahi, MD
Psychedelic-Assisted Coach
Dublin CA
I guide participants through journeys with sacred medicines, including but not limited to ketamine. We get on a free 20-30 minute call to hear your intentions and see if we're a fit. I set you up for medical clearance and a prescription if it's ketamine.
Then, we do:
-two to three 1-hr prep sessions, depending on your level of experience with psychedelics.
-a 3-hour journey if we've chosen ketamine--with beautiful music and bespoke facilitation.
-two to three 1-hr integration sessions, so this work can be a launch point for a New Life.
If needed, we do further journeys or Sacred Embodiment Coaching sessions. There is flexibility on location. I am based in the SF Bay Area, and able to travel to you for in-person medicine sessions. The preparation and integration sessions can be done virtually.
I'm of indigenous heritage, LGBTQ-friendly and specialize in supporting first- and second-generation immigrants and those with developmental trauma.
Blending personalized ritual with embodiment coaching, I offer a bespoke approach to wellness consulting and therapeutic movement. My background balances 10+ years of integrative psychiatry, both for the City & County of San Francisco and privately, with my poetic Sufi and indigenous roots. This potent mixture delivers the best of science and art, abstract and precise, flow and structure.
I am also a dance and movement facilitator with Open Floor International. I was in Open Floor’s first training cohort in 2016, complementing my medical degree from UC San Diego. I've been practicing meditative inquiry, exploration of the psyche, and mindful movement for 15+ years. I taught Open Floor classes regularly which I refer to as Dance Alchemy. I also co-developed a program in San Francisco for parents and teens with trauma, that integrates core movement resources with mindfulness-based emotional intelligence. More recently, I trained with PRATI in their Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy program and with Beckley Academy in their Foundations of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Certificate Program.
