Hi! I’m a licensed mental health therapist and chemical dependency provider who has worked for the last 20 years with the most vulnerable and underserved in Washington State in the fields of Child Welfare, Family Treatment Court, the Native American community, Public Defense, etc. After 17 years of working for the government I began to devote myself to leading in the Psychedelic movement and began the Seattle Decriminalization effort in 2019. These days I run Entheo Society; a 501c3 focused on Entheogenic community and education in Washington State and a national organization at entheosociety.net We are always looking for new volunteers and testimonials about plant medicine. Learn more at entheosocietywa.org *feel free to drop your plant medicine experiences on our web page. We regularly do videos posted on YouTube talking about difficult topics in the psychedelic community (like big $ influencers, big business, misogyny, agent provocateurs) and also have a platform for people who are in active addiction or struggling as well as less functional (mental health, autistic, etc), to counter domination of ableism in the psychedelic community. Wednesday 7:30 pm PST is online addiction support group. I also am the chair of the PAC ADAPT-wa.org (legal Psilocybin effort and decriminalization effort for WA state). That’s what I’m BREATHING night and day these days (looking for financial support to get support for this initiative)!
