Psychedelic experiences can be life-altering and returning to the daily grind can feel challenging. Integration allows you to regain balance and incorporate new knowledge and insights. Utilizing cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and insight-oriented therapies we can work together to help you make meaning of your psychedelic experience. By providing a safe, confidential, nonjudgmental environment we can: explore your insights, identify small steps that incorporate insights in your daily life, process difficult emotions or visions that came up during the experience, and maximize the healing potential of your journey while reducing harms and negative consequences. My training in psychology, harm reduction, and the therapeutic use of psychedelics allows me to help people make meaning of their experiences in a nonjudgmental environment. I have extensive experience helping people understand their relationship with substances and creating rituals or setting intentions that allow them to use drugs in alignment with their values.
