Psychedelic assisted therapy is a treatment model where a person receives mental health support before and after a psychedelic experience. The goal is emotional healing, trauma processing, and long term change.

I offer only psychotherapy, not the medicine itself.

No. I do not provide, supply, recommend, or arrange access to any psychedelic substances.

My work is preparation and integration psychotherapy only.

I support adults who: receive ketamine treatment in California, participate in approved research or clinical programs, travel overseas for legal psychedelic therapy, or choose to use psychedelics on their own and want mental health support and harm reduction.

All care stays within the scope of California psychotherapy.

Ketamine

Ketamine is legal in the United States when provided by a licensed medical professional. It is used for depression, PTSD, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts.

MDMA

MDMA is not legal for general clinical use in California. It is available only through research studies. Integration therapy is allowed for people who received MDMA legally overseas.

Psilocybin

Psilocybin is not legal for therapy in California. It is legally regulated only in Oregon and in certain countries overseas. I can support preparation and integration, but not access.

People look for this option when they feel stuck with:

depression, PTSD, anxiety, emotional numbness, trauma, grief, burnout, or relationship stress.

Psychedelics can create new insights and emotional release that talk therapy alone sometimes cannot reach.

Preparation is the emotional work before the psychedelic experience. It includes: understanding your mental health history, creating intentions, learning grounding skills, reviewing emotional safety, and planning support for after the session.

Preparation helps you feel safe, ready, and centered.

Integration is the therapy that happens after the experience. It includes: talking through emotions or memories that came up, understanding insights, supporting the nervous system, tracking mood and PTSD symptoms, and turning the experience into real life change.

Integration is where long term healing actually happens.

EMDR can support the healing process in several ways.

Before the experience EMDR can calm the nervous system, reduce fear, and prepare the mind to feel safer during the psychedelic session.

After the experience Some people uncover memories, emotions, or trauma that feel unfinished. EMDR helps the brain continue processing. It can: reduce emotional intensity, create clarity, help complete trauma processing, support new beliefs, and strengthen long term healing.

EMDR and psychedelics both work with memory, emotion, and the nervous system, which makes them a strong combination when used correctly.

Clients often seek support for:

treatment resistant depression,

PTSD and complex trauma,

anxiety and panic,

grief,

emotional disconnection,

negative beliefs,

and life transitions.

When done with proper preparation, medical supervision for the medicine, and integration therapy afterward, the process can be safe and effective.

I focus on emotional safety, grounding, and helping you move through the experience without overwhelm.

Yes. Many clients come for integration after challenging or unclear experiences.

Together we explore what happened, support the nervous system, and help you feel stable and grounded again.

Yes. California therapists are allowed to offer harm reduction and mental health support for clients who choose to use psychedelics independently. I do not encourage or suggest use, and I do not help with access. I support the emotional process only.

Yes. Many clients receive MDMA or psilocybin therapy in countries where it is legal.

I provide preparation before they travel and integration when they return.

Sessions are calm, supportive, and focused on your emotional experience. We use a mix of: talk therapy, somatic grounding, mindfulness, EMDR when appropriate, and nervous system regulation tools.

The goal is clarity, stability, and emotional strength.

People often feel open, sensitive, emotional, or reflective.

Integration therapy helps you:

stay grounded,

understand what came up,

create meaning,

and build healthy patterns.

Yes. Sessions can be online or in person, depending on your needs (and location).
