I came to this work through lived experience, listening, and a growing awareness of what was missing. My path into facilitation began after moving through my own journeys without consistently feeling held in trauma-informed, paced, or attuned ways. While those experiences were meaningful, they revealed how vulnerable people can be when adequate support is absent, especially during moments that are challenging or emotionally intense.

That realization became a calling. I felt a clear need for trained, steady, and compassionate presence during experiences that are not always gentle or predictable, spaces where difficulty is not rushed or left unattended, and where care and consent are as important as insight itself.

Alongside lived experience, I have pursued formal training and ongoing education in psychedelic support, integration, cannabis-assisted practices, safe touch, breathwork, and meditation. I currently hold a Colorado natural medicine facilitator training license and am completing the supervised practice required for full licensure through the Center for Medicinal Mindfulness.

My work through Dream Portal remains separate from Colorado’s regulated natural medicine program (NMHA). Any regulated natural medicine services I may offer will be provided through an appropriately licensed organization (healing center), not through Dream Portal. My approach is informed by trauma-aware care, harm reduction, consent, personal agency, and respect for each person’s pace.I also serve as Director of Operations at Unlimited Sciences and contribute as a writer on topics related to psychedelics, integration, and safety. I am the co-founder of a local community group serving marginalized identities, and my work is guided by a commitment to accessibility, inclusion, and ethical practice. I hold deep respect for Indigenous traditions and am intentional about not appropriating ceremonial practices that do not belong to me.

At the heart of Dream Portal is the belief that support is not meant to create dependence. My purpose is to offer tools, reflection, and ways of listening that people can gradually carry for themselves. Integration Sessions, Retreat Planning, and Creative Rituals are designed to support reflection, creativity, personal agency, and the movement between meaningful inner experiences and everyday life.
