Psychotherapy after ayahuasca retreats and ceremonies
An ayahuasca experience can sometimes open something that feels difficult to put into words. You may return feeling clearer, more connected or deeply moved. You may also feel unsettled, emotionally exposed or unsure how what you experienced fits with everyday life.
Psychotherapy can offer a space for ayahuasca integration: to slow down, process the experience and become curious about what emerged.
Every experience is worthy of curiosity.
My role is not to tell you what your experience means. We can stay close to what happened and notice what continues to carry emotion or significance. This may include memories, relationships, bodily sensations, fears, grief, spirituality or questions about the direction of your life.
We do not have to decide too quickly whether an experience was psychological, symbolic, spiritual or something else. Not every insight needs to become a conclusion or an instruction.
Bringing the experience back into everyday life.
Post-ayahuasca integration can involve grounding after an ayahuasca retreat or ceremony and allowing what emerged to enter into relationship with your daily life: your body, relationships, work, choices and sense of meaning.
My integrative psychotherapy approach makes space for psychological, emotional, relational, bodily and spiritual experience. If you are looking for psychological support after ayahuasca, or an ayahuasca integration therapist online, I offer a confidential space to reflect on and integrate experiences that have already taken place.
Please note that I do not provide ayahuasca, facilitate ceremonies, advise on dosage or preparation, or organise or recommend retreats.
The focus of our work is your psychological and emotional wellbeing and how the experience relates to the wider life you are living.
