Psychedelic Medicine Integration Coaching

Bridging the sacred and the everyday.
Integration is the art of weaving insights from expanded states of consciousness into the fabric of daily life — into how we think, relate, create, and choose. It’s what transforms a psychedelic experience from something extraordinary into something enduringly meaningful.

What is Integration?

Psychedelic journeys often open us to profound awareness — of our inner landscape, our past, and our potential. They can illuminate patterns, dissolve defenses, and connect us to something larger than ourselves.

But the real work begins before and after the ceremony.
Integration isn’t only what happens after; it begins with how we prepare. The way we enter an experience — our mindset, our emotional readiness, and the environment that holds us — shapes the journey and its impact.

Why Preparation (Pre-Integration) Matters

Preparation, sometimes called pre-integration, helps create the inner and outer conditions for a safe, intentional, and transformative journey. It’s the stage where we clarify why we’re called to the medicine, what we’re ready to release, and what we hope to understand or embody.

Through pre-integration, we explore:

• Set and Setting – cultivating a clear, grounded mindset (set) and a supportive, safe environment (setting) that align with your intention.

• Intention and Readiness – identifying what’s calling for healing or growth, and discerning whether now is the right time.

• Nervous System Preparation – learning grounding, breath, and somatic practices to navigate intensity and stay present.

• Expectations and Surrender – letting go of the need to control outcomes and cultivating trust in your innate wisdom.

Thoughtful preparation can make the difference between an experience that is confusing or destabilizing — and one that unfolds with coherence, insight, and integration already in motion.

Why Integration Matters

Psychedelic experiences can be expansive, emotional, and sometimes destabilizing. Integration helps translate those non-ordinary experiences into sustainable growth. Through integration, we learn to:

• Stay grounded and embodied as insight unfolds.

• Navigate emotional aftershocks with compassion and clarity.

• Recognize and release outdated narratives.

• Integrate spiritual awakenings with everyday life — work, relationships, creativity, and self-care.

• Move from “something happened to me” toward “something is transforming through me.”

How I Work

My approach to integration is both spiritual and practical, somatic and reflective.
Drawing from over 20 years of yoga, meditation, and transformational coaching, I offer a grounded and heart-centered space where you can unpack and embody your experience.

Together, we may explore:

• Body-based integration – grounding practices, breath, and movement to anchor insights somatically.

• Reflective inquiry – guided reflection to help you articulate, frame, and understand what has emerged.

• Meaning-making – connecting personal experience to larger spiritual or mythic frameworks.

• Action and alignment – bringing new awareness into tangible shifts in relationships, creativity, and purpose.

Integration isn’t about “figuring it out.” It’s about allowing your system to unfold at its own pace — honoring what’s ready to change and what still needs time.

What Sessions Look Like

Sessions are 60–90 minutes, held in person or virtually. Each session is tailored to your process — whether you’re preparing for a journey, integrating one that’s already occurred, or navigating the ongoing waves of transformation that follow.

A session may include:

• Guided somatic or breath practices to ground and connect.

• Space for open reflection and storytelling.

• Coaching and inquiry to illuminate insight and clarify next steps.

• Practical tools to help you embody change in your relationships, creative expression, or spiritual practice.

Some people come for a single session around a specific experience; others choose ongoing support over weeks or months as the integration continues to unfold. The pace and depth are always guided by your needs and readiness.

A Note on Safety and Scope

I do not provide, facilitate, or refer to illegal psychedelic substances or experiences. My work focuses solely on preparation and post-experience integration, supporting your process in a way that honors psychological safety, nervous system regulation, and spiritual integrity.

Testimonial:

“Working with Nina as my integration coach made all the difference. Her calm, loving guidance before my first Ayahuasca retreat left me feeling safe, prepared, and able to fully surrender to the medicine. Her wisdom and presence after the retreat helped me integrate my experiences into daily life beautifully. I’m so grateful for her deeply gifted support.”

🌿 My Code of Ethics in Psychedelic

Practice

As a practitioner working in the field of psychedelics, I ground my ethics in both ancient wisdom and contemporary care. My guiding philosophy is inspired by the Yamas and Niyamas of the Eightfold Path of Yoga—especially ahimsa (non-harming), satya (truthfulness), and svādhyāya (self-study). These teachings guide me not only in my professional responsibilities, but in how I show up in relationships, in practice, and in life.

I view svādhyāya—the practice of self-inquiry and self-awareness—as essential to ethical integrity. It invites me to continually examine my motivations, biases, projections, and conditioning, especially in spaces where power, healing, and vulnerability intersect. Ethical care begins with inner clarity, and I consider personal work to be an ongoing requirement for holding space for others.

I believe ethical practice emerges through authentic relationships— through presence, consent, and care. I approach this work as sacred, always evolving, and held in community. These principles serve as the compass I return to again and again, with the willingness to add, edit, shift, and change, as I change, learn more and receive new information. 

1. Begin Within
   I commit to ongoing personal inquiry and self-work as the foundation of ethical service. Healing is a lifelong process, and I recognize that integrity in my work begins with my own inner alignment.

2. Do No Harm
   Rooted in the yogic principle of ahimsa (non-harming), I approach each individual and situation with care, respect, and the intention to avoid physical, emotional, psychological, or energetic harm.

3. Honor Relationship as the Source of Ethics
   Ethics arise in relationship, not as rigid transactions. I strive to create spaces of mutual respect, safety, and relational attunement.

4. Establish Clear Energy Exchange
   Compensation is agreed upon transparently before any work begins. Pricing is fair, reflects the scope and depth of work, and avoids exploitation or inflated fees.

5. Commit to Safety and Scope
   I ensure all clients are medically and psychologically suitable for this work, with a supportive environment and resources. I maintain crisis plans and uphold responsibility for clients while under my care.

6. Respect Privacy and Confidentiality
   I protect the privacy of those I serve and uphold professional confidentiality standards. I inform participants clearly about the limits of confidentiality, the process of termination, and whether treatment is serving their well-being.

7. Use of Touch with Consent and Integrity
   Touch is offered only when it is within my scope of practice, clearly consented to, and therapeutically appropriate. Consent is fully informed, discussed during intake, and never includes sexual touch or ambiguity.

8. Ethical and Safe Container
   I am committed to the highest ethical standards, holding a safe, respectful, and professional container for your work.

9. Practice Humility, Inquiry, and Reciprocity
   I honor the principle of right relationship — giving and receiving in equal proportion. I meet each person as a whole being, and remain open to feedback, correction, and the sacred unknown.

10. Commit to Continued Education and Mentorship
    I seek the guidance of mentors, elders, and those with lived and ancestral experience in this work. Continued learning and community accountability are central to my practice and ethical responsibility.

I create sacred, trauma-informed spaces that bridge yoga, coaching, and psychedelic-assisted therapy to foster resilience, connection, and belonging. My mission is to guide individuals and communities toward embodied truth and lasting transformation by weaving wisdom traditions with modern, trauma-informed care. In soul-centered spaces where equity is honored and healing deepens, transformation ripples outward from the personal to the collective.
