About
I’m a medical anthropologist and clinical social worker. I use qualitative methods to examine the relationship between the development of an ecological consciousness and its connection to health and wellbeing. My current ethnographic research focuses on BIPOC perspectives of what is known as the “Psychedelic Renaissance.” I am also a practicing psychotherapist and clinical supervisor for MSW students and associate-level clinicians. In my clinical work, I use Lacanian and eco-psychological perspectives as therapeutic modalities.
