Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Altered states of consciousness provide us with the opportunity to not only expand the space between stimulus and response but to understand and detangle the antecedents that form our response. When we turn our attention inward with curiosity we can uncover the actions that may no longer serve us.

Embark on a journey to discover the authentic you. I will guide you, coach you, and support you with a full fledged commitment of care and compassion. Cultivate the life that you want, deepen your relationship with yourself and others, embrace your fears and anxiety, heal your wounded parts, and experience a new freedom.

I am a formally trained guide. For several years, on my own personal quest, I was involved in expansive state journeys. Those experiences were so powerfully therapeutic for me that I decided to step away from my first career as a chef and undertake formal training in safe and effective journey practices, psychedelic prep and integration, Hakomi Mindfulness-based psychotherapy, and harm reduction disciplines and practices.

Based in Asheville NC, I serve a diverse clientele from young adults just starting out to older folks trying to make sense of their lives. My approach involves looking at one’s life through a holistic lens with compassion and love. I seek to help clients understand their behaviors not as singularly problematic but as intelligent and creative ways their system developed to survive. Through this approach I have helped numerous clients co-create supportive actions for growth and connect back with their inner healing.
