SUPPORTING TRANSFORMATION

lotus.jpg

As an Integral Counselor, I accompany individuals on their journeys to wholeness. My approach weaves ecopsychology, earth-based wisdom, and depth, arts-based and somatic healing modalities into individualized templates for transformation. Attuning to the genius in our bodies and brilliance in our souls, we expand our capacity to metabolize trauma, transform wounds into wisdom, and step into the lives we dream of.

This offering is more than therapy—it is a path of liberation from limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging patterns, and an invitation to reclaim the radiance of interbeing. Benefits can include vitality in our bodies, clarity in our minds, peace in our hearts, and resilience in times of turbulence, but the greatest gift of this journey is that it returns us to communion with the intelligence within us and within nature. Transporting us beyond individualist and clinical approaches and inherited religious frameworks, this is a praxis for illumination guided by a vision of mutual flourishing, tending the essential links between personal healing, cultural transformation, and ecological renewal.

“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you really are.”
CG Jung

Counseling

A sanctuary where all that arises is welcomed without judgment. A mirror for the hidden gifts and dormant powers hidden behind old stories of lack and loss. A pathway to fortitude during challenging times. A rite of passage that alchemizes the intense feelings activated when we navigate personal, social and planetary crises. An anchoring into unconditional compassion and tender attention. A collaborative inquiry into your most dazzling potential.

Together, we’ll design a praxis for remembering the vastness you are. We’ll invoke mythopoetic and transpersonal lenses that free you from ruts of numbness and despair. We’ll engage creative and somatic modalities that support nimble thinking and fearless imagining. And we’ll draw from a vast library of wisdom teachings and poetic elixirs that nourish your most radical capacity for self-love and forgiveness.

Ceremony

My calling to share initiatory practices arises from my experience of the power of plants to open hearts and inspire kinship. In a world being unraveled by divisive ideologies, these technologies of consciousness expansion reconnect us with our bodies, communities, ecologies, and ancestries.

Twenty-seven years of apprenticeship in an Amazonian lineage roots my work in the cosmology of forest medicine traditions. Trained as a psilocybin facilitator, I balance this animist orientation with the rigor of psychedelic science.

Shamanic practices that induce a felt sense of communion are the birthright of all people, and a vital aid to our collective wellbeing. Our alliances with plant teachers ripple blessings into our families and our world, and our relationship with source infuses light into all our other relationships.
