Psychedelic Integration Coaching

Navigate the path back to self. The path to your inner and outer wellbeing.

Psychedelic Integration

My approach lies at the cross-section of science, indigenous wisdom and respect for ritual and the sacred. Combining coaching tools, philosophy, ritual and embodied practice. Each session is deeply personal and unique to your experience and needs. Based on this, we will together explore and define the integration path best suited to you.

That being said, there is a process to integration. A series of stages we move through before and after a psychedelic or other peak experience which can be defined in three stages:

The Integration Journey

Preparation: Planting the Seed

Here we explore the purpose behind the journey, ideally done before although this is something we come back to in later stages. For recreational journeys for example, where this stage might be skipped, we may still come back to exploring and understanding the set & setting of the journey. Some areas we may focus on.

  • Setting intention

  • Meta view of different areas of your life

  • Values and bigger vision or purpose

  • Safety, dosage, substance and contraindications

  • Planning for a supportive environment after your journey

Integration: Nurturing the Seed

This is the moment coming out of the journey during which the focus is on taking time to initially rest, and begin to slowly explore and clarify the experience. Creating a first level of understanding.

  • Landing after the experience, rest & recovery

  • Creating connections and understanding the experience in relation to the rest of your life

  • Building clarity & understanding of the meaning you want to give to the experience

Integration: Nurture the Plant

In this phase we begin to define the path forward, together exploring possible ways of integrating the learnings. Turning towards action and defining the first steps together. Taking even small steps early creates consistency and cements new behaviours and patterns. One example: you uncover a tendency towards people pleasing and feeling guilt when turning down offers. Together we may decide on a small challenge, whenever you say “no” to an offer which isn’t aligned, not to give an excuse or reason. Observe and learn from the new behaviour.

  • Incorporate practices and rituals to deepen the neural connection to the experience

  • Defining the path forward & aligned action steps

Minimum 3 Sessions over 4 Months

Why Integration matters?

Integration is the process of making sense of your psychedelic experience and incorporating the insights gained into your daily life. It's an essential step towards realising the potential benefits of entheogenic experiences, such as increased self-awareness, creativity, and spiritual growth.

The real transformation we seek is within us. As Maria Sabina said: “you are the medicine”. The psychedelic experience can be a powerful catalyst on this path, and the way you prepare for the experience and the importance you grant it, sends a powerful message of intention and self-responsibility as you go on this journey.

Research shows that in the 2-3 weeks after a full dose psilocybin journey, there is an increase in neuroplasticity. This is seen as a window of opportunity during which potential for behaviour and mindset change is increased. However, without integration, research has also shown that this potential for change fades over time, as does our memory of the experience fades.

Integration is the process of taking the wisdom from these experiences, and creating positive transformation. We work towards building bridges to the experience, clarifying what is most important and paving the path forward. Empowering on this path of growth and healing.

Mindblown by what we managed to unravel in just an hour."

My Journey

My personal experience with master plants began with my own search for a deeper meaning, and it coincided with support from coaches, therapists and an incredible community of teachers and friends. At this time I was working in the tech startup space, and having reached a level of security and recognition in my career, I became more and more aware of a lack of alignment in my life.

Taking the Why, What, How analogy from Simon Sinek, I saw that I had been making decisions without being fully clear on my “Why”.

Psychedelics were one of the catalysts on this path, offering new perspectives and helping me to shine a torch into the dusty corners of my inner world I hadn’t been looking at. They gave me back agency and responsibility over my life choices, and the way I conduct myself in relation to myself, my close connections and the world at large. And at the same time, I knew this was no magic pill. The insights and clarity I had would sometimes fade, and I began to seek ways to integrate and evoke sustainable change.

This brought me to a deep study of psychedelic integration, what it truly is and how to apply it. Too often “integration” after the ceremony was mentioned as meditation or walks in nature. However, these were examples of a few tools, that belong to a much richer landscape. I began to study different approaches, modern research-backed tools, as well as more ancient and traditional teachings around master plants. Weaving a tapestry rich in colour and images from which I draw inspiration in my sessions today.

In all of my work, I see my role as supporting you on your journey back into a better connection with yourself, your community and the world around you. Sharing helpful tools, offering space for reflection and most of all reminding you of your own inner wisdom.
