Works best with

Healing Trauma
Clients ready to do deep trauma work, including complex trauma, across all levels.
Psychedelic-Naïve Clients
First-timers new to this work who benefit from a grounded, trauma-informed guide for their initial journeys.
Women's Issues
Women navigating the particular pressures, transitions, and inner conflicts that shape their experience.

How Kayli works

  • Clinical and evidence-based

    Grounded in licensed clinical practice and the psychotherapy research the trials were built on.

  • Somatic and body-led

    The body read as closely as the conversation: what someone is carrying is often physical before it has words.

  • Trauma

    Trauma-informed work, including complex and developmental trauma carried over years.

  • Women's experience

    Work shaped around women's lives: motherhood, menopause, and the transitions between.

What people say

In their words

10 stories

My session with Kayli was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. She was reassuring, experienced, and helpful. Kayli made a good experience great!

W.Private session · May 2026

From our first meeting, Kayli’s knowledge about Mushrooms and the therapeutic benefits was very evident. She did not make unrealistic promises and kept the expectations in an appropriate range. She was compassionate and has shared good information before and after the session. I feel comfortable reaching out to her if I need to. She offers a great combination of professional support, knowledge and compassion.

P.W.Private session · April 2026

[Kayli] was fantastic. Her experience, empathy, and her energy was the exact match we needed. We liked her before, but the experience showed us how much we needed her soul present to do what we needed to do. We are deeply grateful to her.

B.L.Private session · May 2025

Kayli was a superb facilitator: knowledgeable, flexible, reassuring, creative, curious, and thoughtful. Demonstrating depth and breadth in both theoretical and practical expertise, she skillfully supported me in crafting a maiden psychedelic journey that aligned with my needs and hopes. I would highly recommend her as a facilitator to anyone!

S.S.Private session · May 2025

I felt at home with Kayli, she has such a nice way of caring. secure, comforting, attentive, sincere.

A.G.Private session · 2025

With Kayli's guidance, I was able to walk away from this transformative experience with more direction, lasting change, and a deeper knowledge about myself. Her grounding, intuitive, and innately comforting presence was exactly what I needed to move forward in my journey of healing from past trauma.

C.KPrivate session · 2025

I couldn’t have asked for a better guide in the preparation, journey and integration experience. Kayli was wonderfully attuned, informed, grounded and soothing throughout the whole process. I felt truly seen and held with my intentions… It was my first mushrooms experience, and Kayli was the perfect facilitator easing any of my anxieties or concerns and truly provided the right set and setting for me to have a powerful, mystical and healing journey.

H.G.Private session · 2025

I underwent a session during a challenging period in my life post-divorce. Thanks to Kayli’s guidance, I found myself again. It felt like each hour of therapy equaled a year of personal growth.

L.D.Private session · 2025

I feel a deep connection with Kayli only after meeting her a few times. This must be why she has chosen her work, to help others.

N.K.Private session · 2025

As someone who was new to psychedelics, it was very important to me that I had someone to accompany me that I trusted. From the first time I talked with Kayli I felt a connection and her warmth was obvious. She was accepting, a great listener, and obviously someone with a lot of wisdom. She took her time during the preparation and integration sessions to make sure I was cared for. During the session her support was amazing, she gave me her full attention and I was so happy she was there.
