Certifications & Credentials
I received my training and certification for this work through the Psychedelic Research and Training Institute (PRATI).
In the state of California, Ketamine is legal for use in the context of medicine assisted psychotherapy when appropriately prescribed by an MD.
Since I am not a physician and cannot give medical advice or prescribe medicine, I have partnered with Dr. Arsalan Azam of Daydream MD who has safely facilitated over 1000 ketamine treatments. Dr. Azam is a board certified Emergency Medicine physician and medical director of Daydream MD. He attended medical school as a Dean’s Scholar at Case Western Medical School and completed his clinical rotations at the Cleveland Clinic. He attended residency in Emergency Medicine at Metropolitan/Harlem Emergency Medicine Residency.
I receive mentorship from many teachers, foremost of which is Wilhelmina De Castro, faculty member at PRATI (Psychedelic Research and Training Institute)and owner of Integrate to Evolve.
