Establishing a heart-centered approach to living
Establishing a heart-centered approach to living
The most rewarding part of my work is helping people connect with their values, break through mental barriers, and move in the direction of what matters. By becoming more aware of the mind and our relationship to it, we can better respond to challenges and take meaningful steps to become the person we want to be.. Together, we can explore how core beliefs and behavior patterns have been shaped over time, influencing our sense of self and well-being, and in doing so, expand the capacity for growth and living a fuller, more meaningful life..
I integrate Acceptance & Commitment Therapy(ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Brainspotting, and mindfulness-based approaches — including psychedelic-informed support — to help clients build insight, process difficult experiences, and take meaningful steps toward their goals with greater clarity, compassion and willingness. Additionally, I am an EMDR consultant-in-training (CIT) who enjoys supporting and collaborating with other clinicians in getting the most out of their practice.
I believe successful and meaningful counseling is built on the trust between client and therapist, and on working together to set and pursue goals that matter to you. I look forward to supporting and working alongside you on your journey.
It is my goal to provide effective, individualized care for those experiencing difficulties ranging from more general life obstacles to helping those looking to reduce or eliminating symptoms of PTSD, stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and dissociation.
Providing you with personalized visual and audible resources to begin practicing and incorporating the basic principles of mindfulness into your life. With mindfulness we can become less reactive, better able to discern thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations as part of our experience, supporting us in pivoting in the direction of our values while making contact with the present moment.
Psychedelic integration helps individuals prepare for and process their psychedelic experiences, ensuring both positive insights and challenging experiences are effectively incorporated into everyday life. Without proper integration, beneficial experiences may be lost, while difficult ones can lead to distress and addiction. This service provides a safe environment, psychoeducation, intention setting, psychological preparation, and trauma resolution. With advanced training in mindfulness-based psychedelic therapy, particularly cannabis-assisted therapy, the therapist supports clients in developing a meaningful, ceremonial relationship with cannabis. By incorporating mindfulness and breathwork, cannabis can serve as a somatic psychedelic, aiding trauma healing and reducing harmful patterns. Medical cannabis is used for PTSD, chronic pain, anxiety, and stress, helping clear trauma stored in the body.
The mindfulness meditations on this site are not a substitute for therapy or medical treatment but can complement a treatment plan under professional supervision. While Holistic Blends Counseling supports harm reduction and responsible education, it does not provide, recommend, or promote the use of illicit substances or illegal psychedelic psychotherapy. The Psychedelic Integration Service strictly adheres to all local, state, and federal cannabis laws and does not sell or distribute cannabis or psychedelics. Any decision to obtain such substances outside the program is solely the individual’s responsibility, and Holistic Blends Counseling assumes no liability for such actions. The organization advocates for intentional, responsible, and legal use of cannabis and psychedelic practices but does not endorse misuse or believe these substances are suitable for everyone.
