Psychedelic Risk Reduction Coaching
Empowered, Informed, and Ready — For All Genders
Approach your psychedelic journeys with confidence, clarity, and support.
Helping you prepare for a safe, supportive, and empowered journey
Whether you’re curious about plant medicine for the first time or returning for a deeper, more intentional experience, the right preparation can make all the difference. It’s easy to focus on the guide, the retreat center, or the medicine itself,
but how do you know if you are truly ready?
Without the right emotional, mental, and logistical foundation, journeys (both micro and macro) can lead to confusion, harm, or missed opportunities for growth. I help you explore your readiness, ask the right questions, and create a supportive framework so you can approach your journey with confidence, resilience, and clarity.
THE 5 S FRAMEWORK
Screening, Set, Setting, Support, and Sustainability
Curious about psychedelics but not sure where to start? Or maybe you’ve had an experience that left you feeling more confused than transformed. Whether you’re navigating the noise of online advice, hoping to try again with more intention, or just craving guidance for your next right step, this is a space for 1:1 support, clarity, and grounded exploration.
The 5 S Framework is designed to change that by guiding you through the key areas of readiness:
Screening: Understand your own emotional and psychological landscape — are you in a flexible, stable place to engage with this work?
Set: Clarify your mindset, intentions, and emotional resilience — what are you bringing into the journey?
Setting: Create a supportive, intentional environment — from the physical space to the people around you.
Support: Build a safety net — who has your back before, during, and after?
Sustainability: Prepare for integration — how will you turn insights into lasting change?
This framework helps you shift from “I hope this works” to “I know I’m ready.”
Who This Is For:
You’ve done your research, but still feel stuck asking: Now what?
You’ve had a ceremony or retreat that left you feeling more lost than healed and you want to understand why
You’re hoping to try again, but want this time to feel different: intentional, grounded, transformational
You know something wasn’t right in your last experience, but don’t know what you don’t know
You’re craving support to take the next right step on your path
