Tachi

I am a psychedelic educator and coach for those called to practices of transformation. My approach is rooted in the guidance of nature and wisdom of the body, and my training includes a Masters degree in East-West Psychology, yoga instructor certification, and decades of devotion to earth-based ceremony, yoga, ecopsychology, and Eastern and Western mystical traditions. I believe personal healing is inextricable from the wellbeing of our culture and planet, and inner work in liberation is essential to the dismantling of systemic violence and inequality. My mission is to serve our evolution beyond patterns of oppression that persist in our bodies, communities, and world, and contribute to a culture of reciprocity and reverence.

I am currently enrolled in a PhD in Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies, and a 1400 hour program in Integrative Psychedelic Therapy through the Ecstatic Mysticism program at the AWE Institute. I have been a practitioner in the Santo Daime—a syncretic lineage from the Brazilian Amazon—for decades, and a lead musician in thousands of ceremonies.

I am honoured beyond words by the gift of your trust, and the opportunity to walk with you on your journey of transformation.
