Heather Busch, BCBA, MEd
Behavioral Scientist & ACT Therapist
Barcelona B
I work within an ACT and behavioral framework with individuals whose patterns persist despite insight or previous intervention. My focus is on functional analysis — understanding what maintains a pattern as well as where it came from — and on building the psychological flexibility and behavioral repertoire needed for meaningful, lasting change in alignment with values.
In the context of psychedelic preparation and integration, I bring a behavioral lens to the work — supporting clients in clarifying what matters most to them, preparing intentionally for expanded-state experiences, and translating insights into lasting, values-based behavioral change.
I work online with clients worldwide and in person in the Barcelona area.
Heather Busch is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with over 20 years of experience working across the United States, the Middle East, and Europe. Her training is in applied behavioral science, and she has spent two decades working at the intersection of behavior change, psychological flexibility, and values-based living.
Heather founded the first ABA center in Kuwait in 2011 and spoke at TEDx Kuwait in 2015. She has published research in behavioral science and autism intervention in peer-reviewed academic journals, and holds additional training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, trauma-informed practice, and psychedelic preparation and integration.
She is Co-Founder and Facilitator at Full Circle Journeys, a professionally held retreat company offering intentional expanded-state experiences in Catalonia, where she contributes behavioral science and ACT-based frameworks to bespoke preparation and integration work.
Heather works with individuals navigating life transitions, persistent patterns, and the integration of expanded-state experiences. Her approach is evidence-based, relational, and grounded in the understanding that insight alone is rarely sufficient for lasting change.
Sessions begin with a free consultation call to discuss your situation, what you are hoping to change, and whether this approach is the right fit.
Individual work may include:
Preparation for expanded-state experiences — clarifying intentions, addressing patterns that may arise, building psychological flexibility
Integration support — translating insights into values-based behavioral change
Ongoing ACT-based work for individuals navigating life transitions, relationship patterns, and persistent behavioral cycles
Sessions are available online worldwide and in person in the Barcelona area.
