(He / Him / Them)About Justin
I'm a Transpersonally oriented psychotherapist with two decades of experience, who trained with MAPS in 2019 to provide MDMA assisted psychotherapy in their Phase II Expanded Access trials. I work a lot with Grief, Trauma, Psychedelic and Psychospiritual Integration and Couples / Relationship concerns from a holistic stance that values Somatic, Cognitive, Emotional, Relational, Ecological, Spiritual, Political and Economic dimensions. I draw on Attachment Theory and Polyvagal Theory and Parts Work in Trauma and Relational work. Coming from a family that fractured along sectarian lines, I’m especially interested in bridging differences in faith, culture, belief, personality and experience. I'm trained and certified as a facilitator in Circling, and as a Tantra teacher, and am currently in a four year training with John and Nicole Churchhill's Karuna Mandala. My personal practices also include Kundalini Yoga, Nature Based Soul Encounter, Mahamudra Meditation, Ecstatic Dance.
