integrative therapy & ancestral healing practices
There is a space—within us and between us— where imagination, creativity, a wiser intelligence, and new possibilities form and emerge. When we learn to trust this inner and outer territory, we become more whole, more aware, more skillful in navigating the vicissitudes of life.
I invite you to explore outside the boundaries of the conscious mind, and into the vast and powerful world that acts in us, and through us. The potential for you to own all you’ve experienced and all of who you are with compassion, love, responsibility, and joy is a possibility accesible to you, if you chose to catalyze it within you, so it can be expressed and integrated into a life lived with intention. Join me for a profound exploration, understanding of yourself, and personal transformation.

find your way, find your medicine
Throughout my life I've found that the ways of healing, self discovery, and homecoming are as diverse as we are. I’ve had the honor and privilege of witnessing people of all genders and walks of life overcome the unimaginable, and rekindle their strength by speaking truth, reclaiming their place in the web of life, and by being open to the ebbs and flows of their path. I’ve seen many people find what they’ve been missing in unconventional ways, in unexpected places, and in the most simple and extraordinary ways.
Search for what reminds you that you belong, here, to this life. As your guide, I can help you to find your own way of healing and feeling whole.
I combine key elements from depth psychology, dreamwork, sacred plant medicines, visionary practices, and the philosophy of ancestral traditions. When these practices unite, they strengthen, inform each other and allow the unconscious mind with all its potential to be revealed. Understanding the unconscious as the part of the mind that holds forgotten and valuable parts of ourselves, our core desires, but also our higher minds.
It is a wholesome way of understanding the intrinsically connectedness in the web of life. It rests in the understanding that we are a continuum of body, mind, soul, community and environment. It puts at the forefront our inherent worthiness for love, compassion, understanding, and belonging.
My approach can help you nurture, enrich and deepen your relationship to self, others, ancestors, and the Land.

ASPEN PSYCHEDELIC SYMPOSIUM 2024
This event was recorded on June 1, 2024 at the Wheeler Opera House, in partnership with Aspen Public Radio, Aspen Psychedelic Resource Center, and Healing Advocacy Fund.
Next year, Colorado will become the second state in the country, after Oregon, to introduce a state-regulated therapeutic access model for psilocybin mushrooms. This panel explores opportunities and challenges, probing what’s possible as communities seek to ethically integrate legal access to psychedelic healing.
Featuring Joshua Kappel, JD; James Eshleman; Claudia Barfoot, LPC, LMHC; and Rebecca Martinez; moderated by Tasia Poinsatte.
"The inner life that Jung described is the secret life we all lead, by day and night, in constant companionship with our unseen, unconscious, inner selves. When human life is in balance, the conscious mind and the unconscious live in relationship. There is a constant flow of energy and information between the two levels as they meet in the dimension of dream, vision, ritual and imagination."
