What We Do
Relationship Mentoring
Intimate relationships are simultaneously the most beautiful and painful experiences we can have as a human being. Many of us weren’t given the best examples in our homes we grew up in. To make matters worse, our cultural models have often been just as broken. After 26 years of love, Michelle and I have reflected on what has kept us in love, full of joy, ever-growing and full of sparks for the long haul. We mentor individuals or couples as they navigate the infinite adventure of loving partnership - whether that takes the form of a dating relationship, a marriage, raising children or otherwise.
(UN)Spiritual Direction & Meaning Making
(UN)Spiritual Direction is essentially companioning people on their life journey without using religious frameworks or beliefs to steer the process. Learning how to approach life as sacred, and build a personal life philosophy and value system is all possible without needing to resort to the dogma of formal religion. We can make meaning
In addition, if you have transcended your childhood faith or your worldview has deconstructed and you're wondering what to do, how to cope, how to relate to your partner, and you need someone to talk to in order to know what's on the other side... I'm your guy. This has become a cornerstone of much of my work over the past two years. And its no surprise. I did this myself over the last 10 years. And it was hard. And it was lonely. And you don't have to do it like that.
Holistic Health, Fitness & Nutrition
Michelle’s personal passion has always been health and fitness. As a certified personal trainer, her favorite place to be each morning is sweating all over the floor at the gym. Using her training in Holistic Health and Nutrition, she works with clients 1 on 1 as well as runs cohorts during the year to help people look good, feel great, and focus on important long term health outcomes so they can live vibrantly!
Psychedelic Integration
“The Western Industrial civilization is the only group in the entire human history that doesn’t hold nonordinary states in great esteem, and doesn’t have any use for them, actually has pathologized them; every other culture has spent a lot of time and energy trying to develop ways of inducing nonordinary states.” — Stanislov Grof
One of the greatest honors of our lives is to hold nonjudgmental safe space for individuals and groups seeking personal healing and awakening through high-dose psychedelic journeys. We work with individuals before and after they take their own journey into non-ordinary and trans-personal states of consciousness. We also sit with and for people in these experiences in person.
Getting the most out of these experiences can be difficult without a companion space holder who keeps you safe, coaches you through any potential difficulty, guides you into full acceptance of what’s here, witnesses you in deep pain or joy, and offers practices and direction for bringing the experience back into your “normal” life. Michelle and I consider the honor of trip-sitting for people like this to be some of the most meaningful experiences of our lives. We always do these together unless otherwise arranged with the client.
