Meet Your Facilitator

Biography

Hi everyone! Welcome!

I am Senior Lead of Psychedelic Programs at Numinus which involves developing and implementing psychedelic-assisted therapy protocols and therapist trainings, thought leadership, and research. I also have a clinical role at Numinus delivering Ketamine-assisted therapy at Numinus: The Drive. Beyond my roles at Numinus, I am a practicing medical doctor with a focused practice in chronic pain, as well as Registered Therapeutic Counsellor emphasizing Relational Somatic Therapy for trauma resolution and ketamine-assisted therapy. I’m also a researcher and research therapist investigating MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for PTSD with the Multidiscipilinary Association for Psychedelic Studies. My unique and diverse clinical background, combined with rich personal experience helps me better understand and synthesize healing across disciplines — something Numinus is on a mission to achieve. I am an uninvited 3rd generation settler and grateful to be living, working, and playing here on the beautiful traditional and ancestral homelands of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

I am really excited to get to know you and to learn together over these eight weeks!
