Personalized 1-hour in-person/telehealth therapy compassionately and effectively addressing psychological issues within a mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral framework. Attachment, parts work, somatics and creative visualization are also utilized in your collaborative care.

Experiential Intensives

Special sessions of 1 hour or longer, integrating Neo-Ericksonian and Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) trance work and pulling from clients' own unconscious material. Akin to psychedelic integration but with sober techniques to induce endogenous altered brainwave states. Clients have described these experiences as like, "dreaming while awake," or "natural tripping." Many report accelerated insights and positive change after these sessions.
