Hi! My name is Debbie, and I’m an integrative plant medicine facilitator and somatic practitioner. My professional exploration of healing and altered states of consciousness began at Johns Hopkins Psychedelic Research Center, where I gained significant clinical experience by contributing to studies that looked at the effects of psilocybin on Major Depressive Disorder and Anorexia Nervosa.

After receiving a strong scientific and ethical foundation in the field of psychedelic medicine, I began facilitating high-dose psilocybin journeys at Mycomeditations Psilocybin Retreat. Working with highly trained therapists, intentional group therapy, and a number of diverse guests, I was exposed to the multi-dimensional states of trauma, healing, and collective patterns within the human condition.

As a professional space holder, guide, and somatic integration coach, I partner with Psychedelic Passage, the first legal psychedelic facilitation network in the nation. Through the privilege of helping hundreds of individuals cultivate highly intentional and personalized healing journeys across the United States, I have gained thousands of hours in hands-on experience in creating highly safe, conscious, and trauma-informed spaces.

I currently lead women-focused immersive medicine retreats in Mexico and Peru, using various plant medicines, somatic interventions, and the power of relational, group therapy.

My training involves many diverse, yet compatible modalities such as somatic trauma therapy, intergenerational trauma healing, internal family systems, somatic EMDR therapy, poly-vagal stimulation, somatic experiencing, nutritional healing, kundalini + ashtanga yoga, mindfulness meditation, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, MDMA-assisted psychotherapy, psilocybin-assisted group therapy, and several others skills that cannot be documented in any training or certification.

Outside of my work with plant medicine, I am both a student and teacher of Ashtanga-vinyasa yoga, an avid kundalini and breath work practitioner, a multi-instrumental musician, and having traveled to over 40 countries across 6 continents, I am also an impassioned world traveler. I love practicing the Spanish and Hebrew language, rock climbing, cold-plunging, cooking plant-based meals, and most of all, laughing with my friends.
