Psychedelic Integration Therapy  Ontario Online

Something opened. Maybe it was during a ceremony with ayahuasca or another plant medicine. Maybe it was a psilocybin experience, clinical or personal. Maybe it was years ago and you’re still processing it.

Something shifted, and now you’re trying to make sense of what came through, or you’re struggling because what came through hasn’t settled.
 

Psychedelic experiences can crack things open in ways that are profound and disorienting at the same time. Insights that felt clear in the moment become harder to hold onto in everyday life. Old grief resurfaces. Parts of yourself you hadn’t met before start showing up.

The nervous system may be activated in ways that don’t resolve on their own. Without support, what was meant to be healing can feel destabilizing.
 

Integration is the work of bringing what happened in that expanded state into your actual life. Not as a story you tell, but as something your body and your relationships can absorb.

Why Integration Matters
 

The experience itself is only part of the process. What you do with it afterward determines whether it becomes transformative or stays fragmented. Many people come out of psychedelic experiences feeling they’ve seen something real and important, but they don’t have a framework for metabolizing it. Old patterns reassert themselves. Relationships feel out of step. The body is carrying material that the conscious mind hasn’t fully processed.
 

Integration therapy provides a space to slow down with what came up, to feel it in the body, to make connections between the psychedelic experience and the patterns you live out daily. It’s not about interpreting what you saw. It’s about helping your whole system, body and mind, catch up with what shifted.
 

What I Bring to This Work
 

I spent 17 years working with plant medicine in traditional ceremonial settings in Peru, nine of those years living in the Amazon and the Andes. This isn’t something I studied from a distance. I sat with it, lived inside it, and came to understand the territory from the inside.
 

That background means I’m not going to pathologize your experience or treat it as something exotic. I’ve sat with people during and after ceremony for years. I understand the kinds of material that surface, the body states, the emotional flooding, the numinous encounters, the confusion, the grief, the quiet awe. I know what it feels like when an experience is too big for the container you have, and I know what it takes to build a larger one.
 

As a therapist, I bring somatic therapy, NARM, parts work, and expressive arts into integration sessions. We work with the body as much as the narrative, because psychedelic material often lives below language.
 

What Integration Sessions Can Help With
 

Processing and grounding insights from ceremony or psychedelic experiences. Working with difficult or overwhelming material that surfaced, including grief, trauma memories, or identity shifts. Nervous system regulation when the body is still activated after an experience.

 

Making sense of spiritual or transpersonal experiences without dismissing or inflating them. Connecting psychedelic insights to everyday patterns, relationships, and decisions. Navigating the gap between who you were before the experience and who you feel yourself becoming.
 

A Note on Safety and Scope
 

I do not provide, prescribe, recommend, or facilitate psychedelic substances. Integration therapy is entirely focused on what happens after.

It is harm-reduction informed and non-judgmental about what substances you’ve used or in what context. This work meets you where you are.

I practice under clinical supervision as a Registered Psychotherapist candidate (RP designation expected 2026).

All sessions are online across Ontario.
 

If you’re carrying something from a psychedelic experience and you want to work with someone who understands the territory, I offer a free 20-minute consultation. We’ll talk about what you’re going through and whether this work feels right for where you are.
