I support people to prepare for and integrate their ayahuasca experiences, helping them to make the most of their ceremonies and seed positive, meaningful change.

I believe each of us has an innate, wired-in drive for healing, self-discovery, and growth that ayahuasca can catalyze when the conditions are right. Preparation and integration work with trustworthy others is often one of those right conditions. In my own multi-year journey with ayahuasca and other psychedelic medicines, this type of support has been a fundamental part of my healing process.

I have a PhD in Counselling Psychology from the University of British Columbia, Canada, and more than 20 years of experience as a therapist. I am a published psychedelics researcher.

I believe preparation and integration coaching helps promote an ethical approach to psychedelics use and a mature stance on drug policy, education, and safety. My wish is for your ayahuasca ceremonies to be as safe and helpful as possible.

I also hold in my heart a vision for the future in which plant medicines and other psychedelics are carefully safeguarded, respected, and equitably integrated into systems of care, to foster personal wellness but also to expand beyond it, for the wellbeing of all.
