Integration Team

Integration is a vital component of the psychedelic medicine experience. You are free to choose an integrator on your own or we will assist you in finding the best match for your needs. Integration is not included in the cost of ketamine treatment; you will schedule and make payment directly with your integrator.

Karma Brooks, LCSW

I have been a mental health therapist for over 20 years and feel fortunate to love my work. My approach is strengths-based, meaning I help individuals and couples recognize, restore, and better utilize their existing strengths while introducing new tools and skills that move them toward greater self acceptance and fulfillment. My style is both nurturing and direct, often with a healthy dose of humor, always aligned toward creating positive change.

I am excited and encouraged by the promising research on ketamine and other psychedelics for the treatment of certain mood disorders. By allowing access to the roots where problematic hardwiring or self concepts may have begun, they open up opportunities for new awareness and effective healing. I am honored to be a part of this work.

As humans, we are hard-wired for safety and connection. Trauma and stress can overwhelm the body's alarm system and bring us out of alignment. Over time we realize the adage "the issues are in the tissues," a quip that speaks to the ways in which stress and trauma manifest as pain, disease, and harmful ways of being with ourselves and others. Intentional, therapeutic use of psychedelics coupled with somatically focused integration work can restore a sense of safety and connection, returning you to wholeness and joy.

I have been working as a licensed mental health therapist for 23 years, specializing in empathic trauma integration and blend a variety of somatic (body-focused) and trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches that honor the body's innate healing wisdom.

Roberta Grant, LMHC, LMT

I have been working as a licensed mental health and massage therapist for 10 and 18 years respectively. My experience is with people of all ages, including children and families with depression, anxiety, abuse, parenting issues, chronic pain, illness, and PTSD/trauma. Additionally, I practice therapeutic bodywork to support the emotional release and processing involved in transformational change. Whether through bodywork or counseling, or a combination of the two, I act as the facilitator of your experience, not the expert. My job is to help you adapt and thrive in the current of change.

In support of the integration process, I offer the safe refuge of a collaborative therapeutic relationship where you may gain new coping skills, establish healthy boundaries, and cultivate more fulfilling relationships to replace the wounds of traumatic pain.

Nikol Angel

With compassion, humor, and creativity I support personal transformation, allowing for deeper levels of self awareness and the awakening of your unique brilliance. I act as a gatekeeper between worlds, guiding you through dreamtime journeys and awakened states of evolutionary consciousness while teaching you how to integrate the soulful and sacred into practices of daily living.

For the past 25 years I have immersed myself in ancient healing traditions and plant medicine studies. I have a Master’s Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture and Chinese Herbology along with certifications in modern Shamanism, Yoga, Breathwork, Massage Therapy, Intuitive Energetics, Reiki, and Western Herbology and Aromatherapeutics. I am the co-founder and director of the Hood River Foundation of Vibrant Living where I coach monthly breathwork circles and lead weekly meditation and mindful movement classes in addition to my private practice.

Miriam Resnick, MSW

As a family of origin therapist for over 45 years, I’ve witnessed both the power and limitations of talk therapy. In my own evolution as a therapist, I’ve become less interested in thoughts and explanations and more focused on the wisdom of the body: our felt senses. Mindfulness is also an important part of my personal practice and informs my work with clients.

I believe that psychedelic psychotherapy is an evolutionary step in the field of mental health and a way to heal ourselves and our world. Psychedelic psychotherapy is a brave new world that is potent and exciting, a process that has the potential for transformation. I feel called to help others integrate the psychedelic experience along their own unique healing path.
