Offering

As psychedelics become increasingly recognized for their therapeutic benefits, more individuals are exploring these powerful tools for personal growth, trauma healing, and emotional transformation. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or simply seeking clarity and connection, working with a knowledgeable coach can help ensure your experience is both safe and meaningful.

This offering is designed to support you before and after your journey with psychedelics. As a Third Wave Certified Psychedelic Coach and an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation, I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental guidance tailored to your needs and intentions.

This session may support you if you are:

  • Preparing for an upcoming journey with psilocybin, ketamine, Bufo, Ayahuasca, MDMA, or conscious cannabis and want to clarify your goals, create a supportive environment, and cultivate emotional readiness.
  • Seeking integration support following a psychedelic experience to help you make sense of what emerged, connect insights to daily life, and move forward with confidence and intention.
  • Exploring which medicine might be best suited for your healing journey and need support understanding your options.
  • Interested in long-term growth and healing and want a trusted guide to walk alongside you through this transformative process.

Each 60-minute session includes:

  • Personalized coaching to clarify intentions or unpack previous experiences.
  • Mind-body-spirit approaches that help ground your experience and support integration.
  • Optional reflection practices and journaling prompts to deepen awareness between sessions.
  • A safe, supportive space where you can speak openly about your healing journey.

Psychedelic journeys can be life-changing—but the real transformation happens in the integration. Whether you are facing illness, grief, uncertainty, or a desire to reconnect with yourself, this offering helps you harness your experience in a grounded and empowering way.

Please note: This service does not include psychedelic administration. It is designed solely for coaching support before and after legal or ceremonial use and is not a substitute for medical care or psychotherapy. You may explore CAT's Marketplace for offerings that entail psychedelic administration.
