Already had enough screen time today? Go for a walk, make a coffee, stare out a window… and listen instead.
A psychedelic journey may last several hours. The process surrounding it begins well before and continues long after.
Our Private Psychedelic Journeys are one-on-one experiences designed around you, with thoughtful preparation beforehand, dedicated support throughout your journey, and integration afterward.
There is no group, no predetermined ceremony and no expectation of what your experience should look like. Your journey is your own.
Before the Journey
We begin by getting to know you.
Together, we explore what is bringing you to this experience, what is happening in your life, what you may be carrying with you, and what you hope might be different on the other side.
Preparation isn’t about scripting the experience or deciding what needs to happen. In fact, psychedelic experiences have a remarkable way of ignoring our plans.
Instead, we work on creating a foundation of safety, trust, openness and curiosity so that you can meet whatever arises.
You’ll also have access to my online preparation course, with practices and exercises designed to help you begin tuning into your body, noticing your patterns and becoming curious about what is already there.
I’ve found that this part of the process often does more than simply prepare people for the journey. As they move through the material, things begin to surface. A memory, a reaction, a resistance, a realization, sometimes something they hadn’t expected to be relevant at all.
And that’s exactly why the timing matters. When something emerges in the days or weeks beforehand, we have space to explore it together before the journey.
Depending on what surfaces, I may also suggest additional self-guided practices or material specific to what you’re working with.
During Your Journey
On the day of your journey, my role is to create and hold a safe, comfortable and supportive environment while allowing the experience to remain yours.
Your eye mask is on, and music accompanies you throughout the journey, helping turn your attention inward and giving the experience room to unfold.
How much I interact with you depends partly on the medicine and partly on what is unfolding. With psilocybin, there is often very little conversation. I’m careful not to pull you out of an experience that is happening internally. With MDMA, there may be considerably more conversation and verbal processing.
Sometimes a few words of reassurance or a carefully timed question are all that’s needed. At other times, it may be movement, breath, touch when previously discussed and consented to, or helping you stay with something difficult.
And sometimes the most useful thing I can do is simply be there. If you’re wondering what a facilitator is actually doing during all that quiet time, I wrote more about that here.
There is no formula and no need to perform, achieve or have a particular kind of experience.
You don’t need to go looking for something profound.
You are given the space to see what comes.
After the Journey
The experience itself can be powerful, beautiful, confusing, difficult, ordinary, extraordinary, or several of those things at once.
Integration is where we begin exploring what it means for your actual life.
Rather than trying to interpret every image, sensation or insight, we look at what feels meaningful, what may have shifted, and what you want to carry forward.
You’ll also receive access to my online integration course, designed to keep that process moving between our conversations. It offers prompts, practices and exercises to help you revisit what arose, notice what continues to unfold, and begin translating insight into everyday life.
And just as preparation can bring unexpected material to the surface, integration often does too. The journey may be over, but the processing isn’t. New connections can appear days or weeks later, and the course gives you a way to continue engaging with them as they emerge.
Because ultimately, the value of a psychedelic experience isn’t simply what happens during the journey.
It’s what happens next.
Is a Private Journey Right for You?
People come to psychedelic experiences for many different reasons.
You may be working through something specific. You may be at a crossroads. You may want to understand an old pattern, reconnect with a part of yourself, explore grief or loss, or simply feel that something in your life is ready to change.
You don’t necessarily need to know exactly what you’re looking for.
We can begin with the conversation.

Logistical Support
Depending on location and circumstances, accommodations and transportation arrangements may also be available and can be discussed during our planning conversations.
Medicine-related logistics are discussed privately and depend on location and applicable laws.
Safety First
Psychedelic experiences aren’t appropriate for everyone, and your physical and psychological safety is an important part of deciding whether this experience is right for you.
Before we move forward, I’ll ask you to complete a confidential intake form covering your health history, medications, previous psychedelic experiences and anything else that may be relevant. I’ll personally review your responses, and we’ll discuss them together before making any decisions.
