Spiritual Care and Integration Support
When an Experience Changes You: Making Meaning of Profound Spiritual Experiences
What experience in your life is asking to be understood, integrated, or lived more fully? I offer a confidential space for exploring and integrating spiritually significant experiences, major life transitions, and entheogenic practices - those that invite connection with the divine within - including ceremonial use of psychedelics.
Supporting the exploration, integration, and embodiment of profound spiritual experiences.
Welcome
Some experiences have the power to change how we understand ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us.
Whether arising through intentional entheogenic practice, a psychedelic journey, contemplative or religious traditions, spiritual emergence, grief, illness, or major life transitions, these profound experiences can open new perspectives while also bringing questions, uncertainty, and the need for reflection.
I offer confidential spiritual care and integration support for individuals seeking a space to explore spiritually significant experiences. Together, we can hold space for what has been revealed, challenged, questioned, or transformed, and consider how these experiences may be woven into the fabric of everyday life.
For more than fourteen years, I served in hospice and healthcare spiritual care, accompanying individuals and families through some of life’s most profound moments. Through this work, I learned the importance of being fully present with experiences that do not always fit neatly into familiar categories or explanations.
Whatever brings you here, you are welcome. My intention is to offer a grounded, heart-centered space of compassion, where your experiences can be explored with curiosity, respect, and care.
About
My work emerged from years of sitting with people at the thresholds of life.
As a hospice chaplain, I accompanied individuals and families through illness, loss, grief, dying, and profound personal and spiritual exploration and integration. During our visits together, people often shared experiences that touched something beyond ordinary language-moments of transcendence, spiritual awakening, encounters with mystery, near-death experiences, and questions about meaning, purpose, and connection.
These encounters revealed how deeply intimate and significant spiritual experiences can be, and how important it is to have a trusted space in which to explore them.
Over time, my own spiritual journey through contemplative practice and personal exploration led me to incorporate entheogens into my spiritual practice. Through these experiences, I gained a firsthand appreciation for both the transformative potential of non-ordinary states, and the importance of spiritual integration.
I also became aware that many people-including clergy, chaplains, spiritual directors, and other helping professionals- often lack a confidential setting in which to reflect on their own spiritually significant experiences. Concerns about judgment, professional expectations, or simply not knowing where to turn, can leave people feeling isolated. Supporting those who care for others has become an important part of my work as well.
Today, my work brings together professional spiritual care, contemplative practice, lived experience with entheogenic exploration, and ongoing study in psychedelics and spiritual integration. I am honored to accompany individuals as they explore experiences that may deepen their relationship with themselves, others, nature, and what they hold sacred.

My Approach
I approach spiritual care as a practice of presence- grounded, heart-centered, and compassionate presence.
Many people seek support because they have encountered an experience that feels meaningful, transformative, unsettling, or difficult to understand. Sometimes the experience brings clarity and connection, Sometimes it raises new questions. Often it is both.
My role is not to assign meaning to your experience, provide definitive interpretations, or fit it into a predetermined framework. Instead, I offer a supportive reflective space where your experience can be explored at your own pace and within the context of your own beliefs, values, and life circumstances.
Together, we listen for what the experience may be asking of you, what insights it may hold, and how it might be integrated into daily life in ways that are meaningful, supportive, and sustainable.
I welcome people from diverse spiritual, religious, and philosophical backgrounds. Whether you identify with a faith tradition, a contemplative path, a nature-based spirituality, or no formal tradition at all, our work begins with respect for your lived experience.
My approach is grounded in :
Deep listening and compassionate presence
Confidential and nonjudgmental spiritual care
A non-directive, client-centered approach
Interfaith, inclusive, and non-dogmatic support
Respect for your beliefs, values, and meaning-making process
Openness to mystery and experiences beyond ordinary language
Attention to both spiritual insight and practical integration
I believe that meaningful integration unfolds through reflection, relationship, and compassionate witnessing. My intention is to walk alongside you as you discover your own understanding of what has emerged and how it may inform the next steps of your journey.
