I come to this work with an interest in the creative aspect of remembering and reclaiming self. We are a species who find nourishment and belonging in meaning and at some level all suffering seems to be a crisis of meaning. In this work what becomes clear is that we are all sorting through unprocessed grief, that is a part of being human and the precursor to profound meaning. Psilocybin is a beautiful and ancient tool to help come to terms with grief within a relational container or with what we now call a “facilitator” in an intentional setting. In my opinion we all seek to tell our own story back to ourselves so that we may finally understand it. I incorporate some of Carl Jung’s frame work to help ground and guide the preparation and integration process using things like archetypes, complexes and symbols to look at the body as carrying what the mind refuses. Much of modern medicine, for all its benefits, seeks to silence the body and its cumbersome symptoms rather than to listen to the body and understand the messages as clues. Psilocybin invites us to listen deeply and to be more whole, more authentic and more integrated. As a facilitator and a coach, I walk beside clients as a person not an expert or a healer but an equal and an alley who is also trying to find my way home. How can anyone be an expert of the unknown? I believe that myths and stories are our ancestors because they are what remains and can not be destroyed. We are literally made and woven of stories- our childhoods, our fantasies, DNA is a kind of origin story. For me this work is about connecting to myth and regaining the agency, the courage and the audacity to write your own. I show up in this work as an artist because I believe that individuation is an art, the oldest art, and that fully existing is one of the most creative and radical acts we are capable of.
I graduated from Innertrek’s Psilocybin Facilitator program in 2023 and I am currently becoming a Jungian Coach. I am a mother and wife, a survivor of autoimmune disease, an artist and a storyteller. I am also the co-director of Gather Psilocybin Community Service Center. My passion is integrating the gems we want to bring back with us from the unknown. I would be honored to follow you there and hear about how you can bring it back here.
