“One Day With Michael Achieved a Better Outcome Than 10 Years of Therapy.”
ONE-ON-ONE GUIDANCE IN EXPANDED STATES
Something in you knows there is more. More clarity, more freedom, more aliveness. But the patterns, the self-doubt, the stories, the automatic reactions, keep pulling you back. That's where this work begins.
In our one-on-one sessions, I create a deeply personalized container for you to step outside the noise of modern life and encounter yourself at a deeper level. Using guided meditation, shamanic drumming, and journeys with entheogenic substances, we work together to surface what has been buried, the unconscious beliefs, the unresolved wounds, the parts of yourself that have never been brought fully into the light.
This work takes place in private settings in Northern California. Guided meditation and shamanic drumming are available broadly. Work with entheogenic substances takes place in contexts where it is legally appropriate to do so. If you have questions about what is available in your situation or geography, the free consultation is a good place to start.
This is not passive work. But those who commit to it find something they didn't expect: themselves.
"Prior to my journey with Michael, I was feeling stuck in my patterns of self-doubt, self-medication, and self-loathing. I now have tools and vision. I now understand the meaning of 'Attitude with Gratitude.’" — Male in His 40s
WORKING IN EXPANDED STATE-SEE THROUGH THE EYES OF CONDOR
In Andean cosmology, expanded states are described as seeing through the eyes of Condor. Flying at great altitude, the condor holds the vast overview — and simultaneously, the precision to spot a single carcass miles below. This is exactly what becomes possible in expanded states of consciousness.
From that elevated vantage point, you can witness your life in full — the global, interconnected reality you exist within, and the intimate, specific patterns that have shaped who you are and why you do the things you do. What once felt fixed begins to look like a choice.
"Embarking on this journey was unlike anything I had ever experienced. After a decade of deep self-reflection, I found myself circling the same topics, unable to fully move forward. No massage could ever release what I felt. This experience reached places nothing else had." — Female in Her 40s
Modern society hardens the heart. Habitual patterns, accumulated regrets, and automatic reactions to external events build up over time - not because we are broken, but because we are human. These patterns run quietly in the background, shaping decisions and relationships long after the original wounds have faded. In expanded states, it becomes possible to see them clearly, sometimes for the first time, and to choose differently.
MY ROLE AS YOUR GUIDE
I don't give you answers. I help you find your own.
My role is to create a safe, supportive, and intentional container, from the detailed intake questionnaire before we begin, through the ceremony and the journey itself, to the comprehensive written summary and integration work that follows. Every element is designed to help you access what is already within you.
"From one single session, my life went from pain and doubt to having moments of bliss and positivity every single day. I literally spring out of bed with excitement for new possibilities now." — Male in His 20s
People come to this work carrying decades of therapy, spiritual seeking, and sincere effort, and still feeling like something essential remains just out of reach. What expanded states can do, when held properly, is make the unconscious visible. Only when our deepest belief systems and patterns are brought into the light can we truly choose differently.
"Through all my years of therapy I had never felt that therapists cared about my pain. Michael was different. Being around Michael is like being with a Gentle Giant, feeling protected, cared for, understood, supported, and loved." — Female in Her 30s
As we continue to work together, many people describe an encounter they did not have words for going in: a recognition of something vast and still within them that had always been there. The journey is not easy. But it is real. And the changes it brings are lasting.
