Q&A
What is psychedelic-assisted therapy?
Danae describes it as working with a psychedelic, in her case, psilocybin, within a container of preparation, one ceremony and integration afterward. She guides clients virtually before and after, with the ceremony itself held in person.
How is intentional psilocybin use different from recreational use?
Danae says mushrooms respond to the power of our intention. When you commit to healing, what needs attention starts surfacing weeks before ceremony, and you arrive ready to meet it with less resistance.
Why does Danae prepare clients with hypnosis and IFS?
Hypnosis helps people move from the mind into the body, rebuild self-trust and clear old patterns before ceremony. Internal family systems helps reduce shame and builds access to what IFS calls Self energy, which she believes deepens the journey.
What is courageous honesty?
It is Danae’s term for saying what is truly on your heart, kindly and compassionately, to the people around you. She sees it as the quickest path to alignment, and believes that anything it breaks was meant to be broken.
What is one simple way to connect with the sacred today?
Danae suggests lying on your bed and staring at the ceiling for five minutes. Check in with your body and yourself and see what comes up.
