Ksenia Trefilova, CPsych
Trauma-Informed and Certified Psychedelic Psychotherapist
Barcelona B
I'm a trauma therapist working in English and Russian, offering in-person sessions in Barcelona and online consultations worldwide.
If you are reading this, it means you are choosing a therapist because life got too hard and heavy, pain feels too strong, loneliness overtook time and space, or spiritual bypassing got you confused. Perhaps an altered state or a deep medicine journey brought up things you weren't ready to face, leaving you asking: Why is it happening? I already did so much…
As one of my teachers says, there can be right actions that are targeted to get you where you want to be, and there can be wrong actions - you do something, actively do something, but nothing changes.
Therapy with me helps to change the inner narrative about your own life. To get to this point and truly integrate what you have experienced, you will have to do work - outside our sessions, your personal work.
What doors we can open together:
• Psychedelic Integration. Altered states are not a magic pill. Without structural integration, an extraordinary, expansive experience remains just a memory that vanishes or confuses you with time. We will ground your insights into daily life.
• Presence and orientation to life. Moving the focus completely away from the analytical brain and down into a raw, full-body experience.
• Taking the mental garbage out. Processing the emotional numbness and structural fragmentation that comes as an outcome of trauma and cPTSD, and finding an actionable way out of a constant fight-or-flight lifestyle.
• Neurodivergent grounding. Navigating specific nervous system responses and brain functioning when you have ADHD and/or Autism, especially within non-ordinary states of consciousness.
• Learning self-regulation. Maturing your own meanings, values, and identification. Asking the fundamental question: What do I want in my life? and creating short- and long-term somatic anchors.
• Belonging and the ancestral matrix. Connecting to the strength of your lineage. When you understand the ancestral matrix and know exactly where you come from, it is much easier to answer the question: Who am I?
I became a therapist after 17 years in international business across four countries. I know firsthand what it means to lose yourself in a professional role, a relationship, or a country that doesn't feel like home.
I'm a second-generation psychotherapist in my family - my grandmother was publicly elected to mediate conflicts in her community after WW2. A deep understanding of human beings, community containers, and healing runs in the family. I also have deeply personal reasons for specializing in trauma. That is what makes this work real and safe for me to hold for you.
