Rachel brings nearly a decade of leadership experience, psychotherapy graduate training, and executive coaching expertise. She is a certified psychedelic trip sitter, with a particular emphasis on harm reduction, guiding individuals and groups in how to prepare for and have safe psychedelic experiences. She also earned her master’s of science in clinical psychology while she trained as a therapist for recovering addicts and the homeless doing trauma, art and group therapy.
Rachel then pivoted into business and organizational psychology to learn about what makes a great leader and go into business for herself. While launching a retail manufacturing startup, Rachel earned an MBA in innovation management and entrepreneurship in business school, which has aided her work as an executive coach since 2012.
Her experience as a CEO and startup founder provides individuals and leaders with strategic support to make powerful personal and professional decisions that build lives and businesses that make a lasting impact. Rachel's personal journey and professional training with psychedelics have become powerful coaching tools in unlocking an individual’s or team’s potential.
Rachel has facilitated in-person psychedelic trips for individuals and groups utilizing psilocybin in preparation, the experience of using the medicine itself, and in post-integration. Rachel provides business owners and individuals with microdose coaching support as well as macrodose 1-1 journeys. She has developed and run a mindfulness meditation therapy group for recovering addicts. She is a certified psychedelic trip sitter by Entheonation and functions as a coach and consultant using psychedelics as a tool for healing and transformation. She has worked with leaders and business owners, as well as those with chronic and life-threatening illnesses such as cancer and PTSD.
Rachel’s personal development journey began with an awakening while studying for a doctorate in clinical psychology, realizing her childhood and young adulthood were riddled with complex trauma. She has used in-depth therapies like EMDR and IFS to treat her complex PTSD and has participated in silent retreats and women’s self-discovery programs. Her dedication to finding her purpose and healing from trauma has been a driving force in her life.
Rachel’s journey includes leaving a conservative Mormon church after being heavily involved for the first 22 years of her life. This experience has given her insights into how leaders can misuse power and what makes people follow them. Rachel has personal experience with psilocybin, LSD, and ketamine. She has led ceremonies for many friends and colleagues and has attended an intensive ketamine preparation and integration coaching program as a client. She specializes in ceremonies for individuals with complex trauma, chronic illness and pain, sexual abuse, terminal illness, depression and anxiety.
Stepping away from a toxic CEO role allowed Rachel to simplify her life and integrate her learnings. Her psychological training, combined with the therapeutic work she has done, primed her perfectly to benefit from psychedelic experiences, which transformed her personal and professional life to let go of old identities and rebuild her sense of self. She aims to share this transformative power with others, helping those who have tried everything else find healing and belonging through psychedelics.
Rachel is an entrepreneurial trailblazer dedicated to bringing the healing modality of psychedelics to the masses, collaborating with those seeking healing and making powerful meaning of their journey.
