Coach Info
About Me:I am a pre-licensed psychotherapist (LCSW pending) from the United States, currently residing in the Sacred Valley of Peru, who takes a psychodynamic approach to sessions with a framework rooted in transpersonal psychology. I employ evidence-based practices signature of cognitive behavioral therapy, schema therapy, solution focused brief therapy, accelerated experiential dynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. I specialize in the synergy between mindfulness practices, somatic modalities, and entheogenic plant medicines.
I have participated in numerous Ayahuasca ceremonies in Peru and Costa Rica, and I have also worked with Huachuma, Bufo Alvarius, Cannabis, and Psilocybin Mushrooms in ceremonial contexts. Additionally, I have explored the numerous benefits derived from various meditation and somatic practices. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (BA) and a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) from Montclair State University, and a Master of Science in Advanced Clinical Social Work Practice (MSW) from Columbia University.
In our therapeutic relationship, I do not see myself as an expert, but rather as a guide facilitating your own unique path to self-discovery. My role is not to motivate or inspire, and advice is only offered when requested. Leveraging my formal education, twenty years of teaching experience, and insights gained from my own continuing journey of personal growth, I aim to empower you through skillful questions and deep exploration. As a psychedelic integration coach, my focus is on guiding you to unearth your own answers within, blending psycho-education with scientific research and models of thought established in the field of psychology.
Our collaboration involves mutually agreed-upon action steps after each session to translate information of tools and techniques into experiential knowledge. I advocate for a finite course together, encouraging your self-sufficiency and sovereignty rather than dependence on me, others, or the consumption of an ever-increasing buffet of more psychedelics.
Description of Services:My work is to provide mentorship, guidance, and support for individuals who are responsibly using psychoactive compounds in legal and safe settings to address emotional, behavioral, and psychological issues.

Overview of Protocol:In preparation sessions, we will work together to reduce potential harms and increase benefits. I can assist you in making choices of appropriate psychoactive medicines to match your needs, guide you towards safe and supportive retreat centers, and advise you of important contraindications to resolve prior to embarking on a entheogenic experience. Together, we will devise an individualized plan to prepare your mind, body, and spirit to maximize and expedite the process of transformation with a dietary regimen, lifestyle changes, somatic techniques, mindfulness practices, and biohacking methods. We will work to activate a deeper awareness of the traumas, personal narratives, false identifications, and limiting beliefs that are holding you back, and we will collaborate on the careful crafting of intentions to remedy these issues.
In integration sessions, we will work together to evaluate interpretations from your journeys, draw meaningful connections, and conduct a thorough analysis of your experiences. We will explore how aspects of the past were uncovered and how that impacts your present. We will create a set of goals and regularly measure their progress. A specific plan of action steps will be formulated to support continued growth, reflection, and embodiment of the profound teachings from your trips practically into daily life. We will solidify and strengthen your path to build resilience and avoid the common traps of the post-trip “afterglow”. I endeavor to equip you with the means to take control of your own psychological well-being and spiritual expansion until you come to recognize that, ultimately, you are your own healer.
