My mushrooms experience opened me up to the power of curiosity, viewing myself from a different perspective. Presented many more questions than answers. I was being, just being (vs. doing). It exceeded my expectations! River was excellent, knowledgeable, and supportive. She spoke from both personal and observed experience. She encouraged me to embrace curiosity and the unexpected flow of the journey. I loved the intimate, gentle, and calm atmosphere. I loved the pleasant background music. I felt very safe and comfortable.
River was an amazing facilitator! Knowledgeable, empathetic, and sensitive, and helped me prepare well for my journey. She had a peaceful and wise energy that made me feel incredibly comfortable and supported. I highly recommend this experience to anyone.
River is an excellent facilitator, knowledgeable and an incredible communicator. Totally walked me through the whole experience, so I knew what to expect beforehand and also during the sessions. She has a warm, caring, trustable demeanor. I felt very safe with her.
River was excellent! She held space for me & waited patiently for me. She let me be which I really appreciated. I wanted to be alone & she picked that up very well, but held the door open if I wanted to talk. I felt completely supported throughout the process.
River made me completely comfortable and ready to jump into my experience.
River was amazing. I had a more difficult session as I worked through years of PTSD and trauma. River was their the entire time as a guide and walked me through the entire experience. I cannot say enough great things about her. River is very knowledgable, well spoken, and understanding of each person's experience. I feel she doubled the success rate that I would have had with someone else. Thank you River!!!
River was exceptional. She was comforting and kind and knowledgeable. She wasn't pushy, she didn't interfere. She just let me allow my brain to work and was there to help me talk it out afterwards. A great support. One I would work with again.
River was very attentive to our needs during the sessions,very patient with all our questions and follow-up, and very thorough with how it works. And overall a very kind human being, which makes a big difference in this experience.
I'll admit to being skeptical about the value of a facilitator at the start. River proved to be an immensely valuable resource with an excellent balance of clinical and experiential knowledge that served as a guiding light through the entire experience which shattered my expectations. River gets the highest recommendation I can give.
From the moment we connected on the phone, River held space, energy, support and knowledge that she shared with me. This all continued on throughout my journey, where River remained an incredible guide. The interactions I had with her during the journey helped keep me grounded and curious. After the session, I had a download of so many different things. River held the space for me to discuss and I am so so grateful for it all. I went in for depression/PTSD relief and came out with so much more.
River Jenkins is an amazing facilitator. Very caring, warm and welcoming, and an absolute blessing. Thank you so much for having her, you have an amazing soul on your team.
I loved the environment that I was in. Everything was comfortable, and I had everything I needed. I loved being able to talk through things with River as I "landed" which helped me verbalize and sort through what I just experienced. River was incredible. She supported me through every step of my journey while allowing me to "find my own way". She has such a great energy- would recommend her to anyone!
River is and was fantastic. She gave me confidence going in. My first session was frightening, as many painful issues were exposed. Every time I expressed my fears during the session, River talked me calmly through them, and was always attentive. I cannot imagine a better facilitator. She is a fascinating and loving person, and this really comes through in every interaction I had with her.
River was there for everything I needed. She even acted as my DJ when I needed to hear a certain song to further my trip experience.
There are no words to describe what a calming force River was Friday evening. The day felt like days and nights rolled into one, but she kept me centered, grounded, and comforted.
Everyone I worked with, especially River, was great! It was my first experience, so didn’t know what to expect. She was supportive, calm, answered all my questions, always had a smile on her face. She definitely was knowledgeable and would recommend her 100%! I look forward to the integration process.
River's a bright, caring soul who held so much space for my experiences. She didn't impose on my mushrooms journey, yet she intuitively knew when I had gotten stuck in a loop and helped me move forward. Her silent warmth provided a safe atmosphere. I felt like I couldn't have had a better match, and I appreciate that she will continue to offer support if and when I need it.
