Merrill Bading, LCSW

I offer psychedelic preparation and integration in my therapy practice. My work with clients is to provide a supportive, non-directive approach to helping them to heal, connect and gain insight into their deeper selves. Like the lotus flower hidden from view in the mud until it's ready to emerge, we all have an inner healer within us. It is often obscured in our unconscious. What keeps our healer hidden are those things that drive us without knowing why, or those things that scare us, or are simply too painful to bring into our everyday existence. I am interested in your journey. If you are motivated to do the work, you may find that immersing yourself in the mud and muck of your psyche will allow what was hidden to be revealed in ways that you may not have anticipated. Many psychedelic medicines are not legal and l don't condone/endorse illegal activity. From a harm reduction perspective, my goal is to incorporate psychedelic preparation and/or integration for those utilizing these medicines on their own and who want to process these experiences in a deeper way.
