HARM REDUCTION SPECIALIST

JOURNEYING WITH PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOMS

Welcome to the magical world of plant medicine! This will potentially be one of the most amazing, meaningful and transformational experiences of your life. Your journey with me will consist of three equally important phases. Once you have been screened for safety, we enter the preparation phase. We will use this time together to get clear on your goals and intentions to ensure you get the most out of your medicine experience.  You will learn the information and tools to be able to handle any difficulties that arise. Most of this can be done before we meet in person.

Next is the journey itself where you will ingest the medicine in a safe, contained environment. This phase will take most of the day. The medicine itself lasts an average of five hours but depending on your metabolism and other factors, can be a little shorter or longer. During this time you will have a comfortable nest with pillows and blankets, an eye cover to block out light and distractions, noise cancelling headphones playing supportive music, a bathroom nearby and highly trained, experienced sitters solely there to support you and handle your every need.

Perhaps the most important phase is the integration. Many that are new to this type of work are left overwhelmed or confused about what they experienced. People have peak experiences but don’t know how to actually assimilate them into their daily lives so that it has lasting power. Without this phase, the journey will likely fade away like a dream. The goal is to bring back the gifts received from the higher realms in a way that the insights gained may have an effect on habitual patterns and create lasting, authentic change in one’s way of being.

 

THE PLANT

Psilocybin is the active ingredient in “magic” mushrooms. Despite its reputation in the uneducated masses, the plant itself is not harmful. Truthfully, it is less toxic than a cup of coffee. This sacred entheogenic mushroom is connected to a master teacher spirit that helps people in a variety of ways and will work with you individually based on your needs and intentions. There are many different types of strains that have different effects and part of the process is helping you choose one that is best suited for what your goals.

It is impossible to describe the magical realms and experiences you may have during your journey as the medicine works with people differently and may be different every single time. The mushroom encounter is unpredictable and often ineffable. Around 85% of people who take it say it was the most meaningful experience of their life. I’m sure you’ve also heard of the scary stories of those who have “bad trips”. If you are screened and prepared, the chances of this are very small. Most people who have this type of experience are not prepared, not in the right mindset, not in the right place or around the right people or are just resistant. It’s not all rainbows and magic and it’s not always easy but it does have the power to enact tremendous healing and change and if you come with the mindset that all experiences are welcome and trust that everything that happens is in your best interest, you will do great.

 

 

THE CEREMONY

 

This powerful mushroom has the ability to transcend our normal waking reality and work in the multidimensional realms of spirit. That being the case, it is important to protect ourselves from meddlesome beings that may not have our best interest at heart. There will be a medicine person present to bless the medicine and create a safe container so that can’t happen.

YOUR GUIDE

I am one third clinical therapist, one third medicine woman and one third harm reduction specialist. The unique combination makes me an ideal person to support you with this sacred medicine. To protect my license, here I will be holding the role of the latter. I have been a clinical therapist for over 11 years but I have been a part of entheogenic medicine circles for 25 years. Most recently I have become a certified psilocybin guide after completing the most rigorous, comprehensive training around. I am intimately familiar with the territory and it has provided countless blessings and healings for me over the decades. I trust this medicine completely and will do everything I can to make sure you get the most from your experience.

 

YOU

Are ready to change and receptive to new things. Have not taken lithium in the last couple of months. Are not bipolar and have not been diagnosed with a personality disorder. Have not had any psychotic episodes in the last year. Are not currently addicted to any narcotics. Are not expecting all of the problems in your life to magically disappear overnight. Are open minded, tolerant and generally get along well with others.

 

 

HARM REDUCTION/THE NITTY

Mushrooms are only decriminalized in a handful of cities so in most places they are still illegal. Harm reduction services are 100% legal everywhere. While we will be journeying in a legal state, you must be intelligent, sensitive and aware around who you share this material with and how you handle communication with me. You also are taking full responsibility for yourself and the fact that you are choosing to take the medicine. I am only there to keep you safe. Trust that all of your needs will be handled and we will talk about sensitive topics only via Signal (an app you must download to your phone for protected communication with me).

WHAT'S FIRST

Reach out to me via email so we can discuss possibilities and prices. There will be upcoming small group retreats but for now I am taking appointments for solo/couple sessions. I am currently a digital nomad. Following this I'll list where I'll be in 2025 so you can start to reach out to me to schedule your session when I'll be in an area near you. I can come to you anytime but then travel expenses are added to the costs.  We can journey in your home if it is quiet, peaceful, uncluttered and free of any other people, pets or major distractions...or you can rent an appropriate airbnb.
