Educational Consultation & Community for Navigating Altered States of Consciousness in Care Settings
Overview
This offering is designed for mental health professionals, healthcare workers, spiritual care providers, therapists-in-training, and spaceholders who wish to deepen their capacity to ethically and skillfully support clients experiencing altered states of consciousness.
From spontaneous spiritual emergence to therapeutic breakthroughs, clients are increasingly presenting with experiences that fall outside traditional clinical models, but hold profound healing potential when understood in the right context.
Offerings
Community Support & Practice
Join a growing community of emerging and established practitioners dedicated to exploring the ethical, embodied, and collaborative frontiers of spiritual care and psychedelic integration. We hold space for shared inquiry, reflection, and somatic presence around:
- The lived experience and phenomenology of beneficial altered states
- Practices and frameworks from contemplative traditions, Indigenous worldviews, and Western esoteric systems
- Ethical application of spiritual care in professional settings and therapeutic containers
- Building trusted alliances across modalities to co-create integrative healing ecosystems
These sessions emphasize somatic practices, experiential learning, and ontological neutrality, contributing to the wider movement of establishing shared language and standards for understanding and accessing altered states, regardless of cultural backgrounds or beliefs.
This space also serves as a launchpad for deeper collaboration — from interdisciplinary research teams to integration stations at events, to co-facilitated healing centers. Practitioners are invited to form trusted partnerships, reflect on their scope of practice, and build a future of care grounded in integrity and mutual respect.

My Background
With a background in neurophenomenology research and training in mental health counseling, I collaborate with the Emergent Phenomenology Research Consortium (EPRC) to bridge contemplative wisdom and scientific rigor. My philosophical approach spans teachings received from respected Theravada, Zen Buddhist, and Okinawan martial arts instructors, as well as Indian ancestry of Raja Yoga, and personal experiences with Jungian Analysis and psychedelics. Despite these cultural influences, I remain committed to offering inclusive, trauma-informed, and ontologically neutral educational frameworks that are accessible to professionals of all backgrounds and belief systems.
I do not act as a clinician or spiritual guide, but as a fellow peer dedicated to learning how practitioners can support each other in responding compassionately and competently to spiritual emergence, non-ordinary states of consciousness, and transformative experiences.
