Ketamine Assisted Therapy
& Psychedelic Integration
Trauma- informed psychedelic therapy for navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and longing to feel like themselves again.
Ketamine Assisted Therapy (KAT) is an innovative and transformative psychedelic treatment that combines the therapeutic potential of ketamine with the supportive framework of psychotherapy.
Ketamine, when administered in a controlled, therapeutic setting, can help facilitate profound shifts in consciousness, enabling clients to access deeper emotional and psychological healing.
Unlike traditional psychotherapy, Ketamine Assisted Therapy allows for a more direct, often accelerated connection with unconscious material—such as trauma, grief, and deep-seated emotional patterns—offering a unique opportunity for transformation.
Ketamine can help you break through mental barriers, reduce emotional reactivity, and foster a sense of clarity and inner peace, all while enhancing the therapeutic process.
In my practice, ketamine is used with the utmost care and attention, in combination with guided therapy sessions, to provide a safe and supportive environment for your healing journey.
Whether you’re working through trauma, anxiety, depression, or emotional blockages, Ketamine Assisted Therapy can help facilitate breakthroughs that may be harder to achieve with talk therapy alone.
I integrate ketamine with a compassionate, trauma-informed, and client-centered approach, ensuring that your experience is both safe and empowering. If you’re ready to explore how this cutting-edge therapy can support your healing process, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
Psychedelic Integration Therapy
A grounded, trauma‑informed space to make meaning of expanded states.Psychedelic experiences can open deep insight, emotion, and memory — and they can also leave you feeling tender, overwhelmed, or unsure how to bring what you discovered back into your daily life. Integration therapy offers a steady, non‑judgmental place to land. It’s a space to explore what surfaced, understand its meaning, and support your nervous system as you move forward.
My approach is warm, relational, and rooted in somatic therapy, EMDR‑informed processing, and parts work. Together, we slow down and gently explore the themes, emotions, and inner parts that emerged during your experience. We look at what felt meaningful, what felt confusing, and what your body is still holding. This work is never rushed. It’s collaborative, grounding, and centered on your safety and autonomy.
Many people come to integration therapy after ketamine‑assisted treatment with a medical provider, or after a personal or ceremonial experience that opened something important. You may be navigating big emotions, spiritual questions, shifts in identity, or memories that resurfaced. You may feel expanded, unsettled, or both. Whatever your experience was, you don’t have to make sense of it alone.
I offer integration therapy through online sessions for clients across California, with a focus on the Berkeley and Oakland communities. Sessions are spacious and attuned, giving you room to reflect, regulate, and integrate at a pace that feels right for your nervous system.
If you’re ready to explore your experience with support, or simply want to feel more grounded after a journey, I’d be honored to walk with you.
You Deserve Deeper Support.
Let’s schedule a consultation to discuss what’s been weighing on you, what you’re hoping for, and what feels like the next step.

Microdosing refers to the practice of taking very small, sub-perceptual amounts of a psychedelic substance, such as psilocybin, with the intention of supporting mood, focus, emotional insight, or creativity. The dose is typically low enough that it does not produce hallucinations or significant alterations in perception.
Many people in Berkeley, Oakland, and the Bay Area explore microdosing to support anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, or personal growth. While some individuals report benefits, research on microdosing is still emerging, and results can vary widely depending on the person, substance, dosage, and context.
As a therapist, I do not prescribe or provide psychedelic substances. However, I offer psychedelic integration therapy, which supports individuals in processing experiences, tracking emotional and nervous system responses, and integrating insights in a grounded, trauma-informed way. Integration therapy can be especially important for people with a history of trauma, anxiety, or sensitivity to altered states.
If you are curious about microdosing, working with a trained mental health professional can help ensure your exploration is intentional, emotionally safe, and aligned with your overall well-being.
