EXPANDED STATES THERAPY, PREPARATION, INTEGRATION

Expanded States Therapy, Preparation & Integration

Including support for psychedelic experiences, meditation, and spiritual emergence

“Psychedelics are to the study of the mind what the microscope is to biology and the telescope is to astronomy.”
— Stanislav Grof



There are moments in life when something has to change.

It becomes unavoidable—heavy, burdensome.

It speaks through dreams, ruptures, and glimpses beyond the ordinary structure of self.

What matters is not just the opening, but what you do with it.

This work is about learning how to walk through that opening—and into the person you are capable of becoming.



Psychedelics and expanded-state experiences can be deeply supportive tools in this journey. They can reveal possibility, beauty, pain, truth, confusion, insight, and material that has long lived beneath the surface. When approached with care, intention, and the right support, these experiences can become catalysts for both meaningful change and profound healing.

Psychedelics have been deeply instrumental in my own growth, and over the last two decades personally, and six years professionally, I have witnessed how powerful these tools can be when approached skillfully, ethically, and in the right setting.

Beginning in 2020, I pursued formal training in psychedelic-assisted therapeutic work. My path began with Cannabis Assisted Psychedelic Therapy and Ketamine Assisted Psychedelic Therapy while working for the clinic Medicinal Mindfulness in Boulder, Colorado. Following the passage of the Natural Medicine Health Act in Colorado in 2022, I also began formally offering psilocybin-related therapeutic support within that legal context.

In 2025, I was overjoyed to move to the paradisal Powell River, BC, where I began offering my skills to my local community. I work with individuals locally in Powell River, BC, as well as online.


What This Work Is

This work is grounded in:

  • Transpersonal psychotherapy

  • Somatic awareness and nervous system regulation

  • Jungian and archetypal frameworks

  • Integration practices that bring insight into lived reality

  • A respect for the sacred through your own spiritual lens

This is not about chasing peak experiences.

It is about turning insight into embodiment.
Turning vision into change.
Turning opening into a life that actually feels different.


A Note on Substances

I do not provide or supply any substances.

Clients are fully responsible for their own choices. My role is to offer therapeutic support through:

  • Preparation — clarity, safety, intention, and inner readiness

  • Support — grounded, non-directive presence when appropriate

  • Integration — helping make meaning of the experience and bring it into daily life


Who This Is For

This work may be a fit if you:

  • Have had a powerful psychedelic or expanded-state experience and want help integrating it

  • Feel something meaningful is trying to come through, but it is unclear, destabilizing, or overwhelming

  • Are preparing for a significant inner journey and want grounding, discernment, and intention

  • Are navigating identity shifts, existential questioning, or spiritual emergence

  • Want to engage inner work in a way that includes both depth and structure


What We Actually Do Together

This is not passive talk therapy.

Sessions may include:

  • Grounded conversation and reflection

  • Somatic tracking and nervous system work

  • Guided inquiry into symbolic, imaginal, or archetypal material

  • Integration of dreams, imagery, and altered-state experiences

  • Practical anchoring into real-life change

At times, this work is subtle.
At times, it is profound.

Always, it is oriented toward real change in your life.


Working Together

I offer both individual sessions and structured containers.

1:1 Sessions

Ongoing support for preparation, integration, spiritual emergence, or depth-oriented therapeutic work.

Intensive Integration Process

A structured arc that may include:

  • Preparation sessions

  • Support around a significant experience

  • Multiple integration sessions

This format allows for deeper continuity and more meaningful change over time.


Pricing

To support accessibility within the local community, I offer a tiered structure:

  • Standard sessions: $100–140 CAD

  • Limited sliding-scale spots available

  • Integration groups offered periodically at lower cost

If cost is a barrier, you are welcome to reach out. We can explore options together.

I aim to create a space that is:

Laughter, too, is medicine.
