ABOUT US

Nestled in a serene mountain community of Bailey, CO, I want to create a Mental Health Healing Center as a sanctuary for those navigating the lasting effects of trauma. I am dedicated to fostering mental and emotional well-being through a deeply compassionate and holistic approach.

Blending evidence-based therapeutic practices with the transformative power of nature, animal-assisted therapy, and guided Psilocybin experiences, I want to create a safe and supportive space for healing. My mission is to help individuals reconnect with themselves, build resilience, and develop meaningful, lasting tools for personal growth.

I believe that healing is not only possible—but powerful—when rooted in empathy, connection, and the natural world.

I believe that healing is about making deep changes in the way we live and relate to world around us. With that I would love to connect and see if I would be the right fit for you
