Roxanne Hallisey

Intern, Clinican

I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to create a meaningful and fulfilling life. When we experience empathy and powerful feelings of awe in connection with others, we are better able to expand our self-awareness, reflect and heal from life’s most difficult moments, and understand how to harness our internal and external experiences into a powerful life story. A decade of research and creating community in psychedelic spaces has allowed me to more deeply understand the underlying thread of human connection between us and celebrate our unique differences.

My client-centered approach to psychedelic-assisted therapy is based on facilitating healing through relationship, making meaning through self-awareness, and discovering your own inner healing intelligence so you can live in authenticity. I offer a safe and accepting space for you to more deeply explore your thoughts and feelings in a way that helps you better understand
yourself. In our work together, I welcome you to come as you are: you are seen, heard, and accepted for your lived experience.

Supported psychedelic-assisted therapy offers the gift of clarity: An opportunity to clear accumulated mental, spiritual, and generational cobwebs, stepping fully into your most authentic self. Asking life’s big questions can be uncomfortable, but I am here to walk alongside you in your transformation of healing and growth.
