Rafa creates a safe and supportive space where all parts of you are gently welcomed into the light. Blending the wisdom of indigenous plant medicine traditions with grounded therapeutic practices, Rafa weaves a path of self-discovery through open curiosity and compassionate inquiry. This work invites your whole self into presence, integration, transformation, expansion.

Understanding the limitations of traditional shamanic practices in modern Western contexts, Rafa developed an innovative therapeutic approach that bridges ancient wisdom with contemporary psychological understanding. This blending emerged from his own challenging experience of feeling disconnected from his humanity after intensive plant medicine work—a disorientation that required skilled intervention to resolve.

What sets Rafa's work apart is his profound appreciation for witnessing human authenticity. He treasures those moments when people open up not just to him, but to themselves—revealing their real truth, their genuine struggles, their deepest patterns. This witnessing creates the container for the medicine to work most effectively.

Beyond the popular dietary restrictions or meditation practice, the preparation phase is a therapeutic excavation where clients begin opening the "boxes" within themselves—examining anxiety, family patterns, old wounds. Through careful dialogue, they identify the highest leverage point for healing, the core issue that, when addressed, allows other aspects of their lives to shift into alignment.

Preparation sessions are designed to help you enter your ceremony with clarity, stability, and a sense of readiness in your mind, body, and emotions.

Together, we’ll explore:

• Mental Readiness: Understanding your intentions, identifying emotional patterns, and preparing for challenging experiences.

• Physical Preparation: Nutrition, movement, and lifestyle shifts to support a clear and receptive state.

• Emotional Grounding: Unearthing the root causes of your experiences, past wounds, and limiting beliefs that may surface.

• Practical Tools: Breathwork, journaling, and other techniques to help you navigate the experience with trust and resilience.

Ceremonies are rooted in the Peruvian Indigenous Shipibo tradition. These ceremonies are often described as profoundly surgical in nature—precise, intense, and deeply transformative. Guided by the intelligence of the medicine, the experience targets specific aspects of your psyche that were opened and explored during the preparatory process. These metaphorical “boxes” you bravely chose to open can now be illuminated from within, potentially revealing long-hidden layers of yourself with striking clarity.

This is not a journey of the mind alone. The ceremony moves you beyond intellectual insight into the realm of pure feeling and embodied knowing. Here, you engage in a living dialogue with the plant spirit—a co-creation where the medicine responds to your readiness, your questions, your vulnerability. It meets you exactly where you are, yet invites you far beyond what you thought was possible.

Often times, people encounter frequencies that stretch the boundaries of ordinary consciousness. While this can feel disorienting, it is also profoundly liberating, offering a perspective rooted not in thought, but in soul.

This is not just a ceremony—it is a encounter with your deepest truth.

Perhaps the most critical phase, integration guides participants back from the expanded consciousness of ceremony to functional baseline reality. This isn't about returning to where they started, but finding a new equilibrium—slightly elevated from their original state, yet grounded enough to navigate daily life with the wisdom gained.

The integration process allows your transformation to take root and blossom in your life. Sessions are designed to support you to:

• Make sense of your experience and emotions

• Bridge the gap between ceremony and everyday reality

• Identify practical steps to apply your insights

• Process any challenges or unresolved feelings

• Create rituals and practices to sustain your healing

This work isn't a destination but the beginning of a relationship—with the medicine, with the deeper parts of yourself, and with a way of being that honors both your humanity and your nature. You'll carry forward not just insights, but a new capacity to feel, to choose vulnerability over protection, and to trust in your own innate wisdom.

The person who began this journey with questions and curiosity emerges with embodied knowing—still tender, still sensitive, but now equipped with tools to navigate the world from this more open, aware place. The medicine continues to work within you, a living relationship that deepens with time and conscious attention.
