The philosophy of my practice is to help individuals overcome the challenges that confront them in order to achieve psychological, emotional & mental well-being. I do this by helping patients cultivate their inherent strengths and gain insight into the difficult areas of their life. As psychedelic medicine becomes increasingly prevalent in my patients’ and clients’ mental health work and personal journeys, integration of this important work has become a large part of the therapy I provide. I see psychedelics as standing at the interface of mind, body, and spirit. On the one hand, they offer a novel neurobiological mechanism to treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and addiction. And, on the other hand, they offer an expansion of consciousness or perspective — which some may experience as a spiritual awakening — that enables people to see their world and therefore their symptoms with fresh eyes.
