Psychedelic Integration Therapy for LGBTQ+ Floridians — CIIS-Trained, Online & St. Petersburg

Why Integration Matters

Psychedelic experiences—whether from ketamine, psilocybin retreats abroad, or intentional breath-work—can spark deep emotional breakthroughs. Without skilled integration, those insights fade or feel overwhelming. Saltwater Souls Counseling offers queer-affirming, trauma-informed psychedelic integration therapy to translate
your journey into lasting relief from anxiety, depression, and spiritual stuckness.

CIIS-Trained Expertise

I completed a three-year master’s in Counseling Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS), the nation’s pioneer in psychedelic-assisted therapy education. My training blends psychodynamic, CBT, and somatic tools with state-of-the-art research on altered-state healing—so you get a safe, grounded space to process:

  • Mystical or ego-dissolution experiences

  • Intense emotional releases or trauma memories

  • Spiritual awakenings and existential insights

  • Unsettling “bad-trip” fragments needing closure

What Integration Sessions Look Like

  1. Free 20-Minute Consult — clarify goals and set safety parameters.

  2. Initial 75-Minute Mapping Session — timeline of psychedelic history, intentions, and current challenges.

  3. 50-Minute Weekly Integrations — somatic grounding, parts work (IFS), journaling prompts, and action planning.

  4. Follow-Up Review (4–6 weeks later) — measure mood shifts and embed daily practices.

All sessions are available via HIPAA-secure video across Florida or in-person near St. Petersburg’s waterfront parks.

Fees

• Initial 75-min integration consult — $225
• Ongoing 50-min sessions — $150

Superbills provided for PPO out-of-network reimbursement; HSA/FSA cards accepted.

Ketamine-Assisted Therapy Referrals

While I do not administer psychedelics, I collaborate with vetted Florida MDs and APRNs who provide legal ketamine protocols. We can coordinate prep, in-session support, and post-ketamine integration to maximize outcomes.

Is This Right for You?

• You’ve completed or plan to complete a ketamine series and want lasting change.
• You returned from an out-of-state or international psilocybin retreat and need to ground the insights.
• A past psychedelic trip stirred unresolved trauma you’re ready to process.
• You’re LGBTQ+ and want a therapist who affirms pronouns, partners, and unique minority-stress contexts.

Psychedelic Integration Therapy does not involve illegal substance use or medical advice. All discussions of substances are for educational and harm-reduction purposes only.
