Integrative therapy


Can you imagine a world without certainty?
The wind rises, the wind falls.

– Mary Oliver

  • After the Ecstasy, the Laundry
  • Integrative practice offers a grounded way to embody what has been opened through profound life experiences- meditation retreats, illness, divorce, migration, grief, extended abstinence or isolation, post-psychedelic* or entheogenic** journeys etc.

    Jack Kornfield’s book After the Ecstasy, the Laundry reminds us of a simple truth: no matter how profound the experience or how radical the transformation, everyday life continues. We might also say after a loss, the laundry or after abstinence, the laundry.

    As the Zen saying goes: before enlightenment, fetch water and gather wood; after enlightenment, fetch water and gather wood.

    Living in a human body means tending to the rhythms and responsibilities of daily life. After significant inner shifts, the task becomes finding a new sense of balance, equanimity, and integration.

    Contemplative Counsel & Psychedelic Integration

    My work includes post-psychedelic integration offered as a harm-reduction practice, integrated into my broader counselling and contemplative work. This practice is held under the supervision of my teacher and elder, psychotherapist Andrew Feldmár, who studied with the renowned and controversial Scottish psychiatrist R. D. Laing—one of the influential figures of the 1960s counterculture.

    Psychedelic integration focuses not just on the experience itself, but on how insights are metabolized and lived over time- emotionally, relationally, and practically.

    For broader context, you may explore interviews with author and journalist Michael Pollan or mycologist Paul Stamets, as well as conversations with leading researchers in the field. To learn more about my lineage and approach, you can view interviews with my teacher and with me through MAPS Canada.

    Orientation & Ethics

    My work is grounded in the view that human beings are autonomous and capable of making their own health-related decisions. From this perspective, safety is supported by offering education, reflection, and integration tools—without encouraging or promoting the use of psychedelics themselves.

    * Psychedelic comes from the Ancient Greek psychē (ψυχή, “soul”) and dēloun (δηλοῦν, “to make visible or reveal”), meaning “soul-manifesting.”

    ** Entheogen, a term introduced in the 1970s, comes from Greek and means “becoming divine within.” It was coined by a group studying the ritual use of psychoactive substances in shamanic traditions.


Price: $155/60min

First, Introduction session is 90 min long, $232.50. 

Times after that are negotiated individually. I practice inclusion, so If after the initial session money is the only obstacle to continue counselling, the fees may be re-negotiated.  

Please read my in-person attending and cancelation policy, bellow.

"I AM” is a spiritual statement of our responsibility to manifest our particular quantum of the spirit within the resistant medium of our earthly lives. It may be wrong to copy or to pretend, yet the pressures to do so are great. To free ourselves from the depressing compulsion to be "good", we need strength and courage to seek our truth.

WORKING ETIQUETTE

My approach is to work with individuals who are committed to awakening the body–mind connection and learning practices (both movement and stillness) that support their equilibrium and well-being. 

In the new year, 2026,  I will be shifting my practice primarily toward working with those committed to meeting at least twice per month so we can work in depth. I will, however, continue to make space for new clients.

WORKING HOURS AND ATTENDANCE POLICY

  • No refunds, exchanges, or transfers of sessions.

  • Working hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
    (The only Holliday closure is on Christmas Day).

  • Payment is required in advance by e-transfer (within Canada) or PayPal (outside Canada).

  • Intake sessions must be paid in full at least two business days in advance to secure the appointment.

In-Person Appointments

  • If your session is scheduled in person, please ensure you are free of any symptoms.

  • If symptoms arise or you are unable to attend in person, the session will be held online instead—unless you cancel in time (see below).


CANCELLATION POLICY

  • A minimum of two full business days’ notice (48 hours, Mon–Fri) is required for cancellations or changes. For scheduled longer session ( 4 hr and longer) the minimum cancellation is one week prior to scheduled session. Notice must be provided in writing via email.

  • If less than the required notice is given, the full session fee will be charged.

The cause of missing an appointment is of no consequence:  this policy is not punitive—it is intended to protect my time and schedule consistency.
