“Suffering creates a vivid contrast illuminating joy, happiness, and satisfaction. It is a harsh lesson on the other side of sublime. We all must suffer, whether we choose to or not. There must be value in that which is given in our lives, even though we hope and try to live joyfully and enjoy our brief time on earth.”
― Brent Green, Questions of the Spirit: The Quest for Understanding at a Time of Loss

Rick Doblin, Ph.D.
Rick Doblin, Ph.D., is the founder and executive director of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). He received his doctorate in Public Policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, where he wrote his dissertation on the regulation of the medical uses of psychedelics and marijuana and his Master’s thesis on a survey of oncologists about smoked marijuana vs. the oral THC pill in nausea control for cancer patients. His undergraduate thesis at New College of Florida was a 25-year follow-up to the classic Good Friday Experiment, which evaluated the potential of psychedelic drugs to catalyze religious experiences. He also conducted a thirty-four year follow-up study to Timothy Leary’s Concord Prison Experiment. Rick studied with Dr. Stanislav Grof and was among the first to be certified as a Holotropic Breathwork practitioner. His professional goal is to help develop legal contexts for the beneficial uses of psychedelics and marijuana, primarily as prescription medicines but also for personal growth for otherwise healthy people, and eventually to become a legally licensed psychedelic therapist. He founded MAPS in 1986, and currently resides in Boston with his wife and one of three children (two in college).
Dr. Beth Miller
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Life Coach, energy healer, and spiritual counselor. And my career is my calling, not just a job. I am the creator of Modern Intuitive Therapy, a progressive counseling model that combines the absolute best tools from psychotherapy, life coaching, energy healing, science, and spirituality. Developing this healing model came as a natural bi-product of two things: I am a relentless learner who is super curious and I have a stubborn belief that all people can reach their highest selves when taught the best skills and tools (and yes, that includes even you regardless of how bad you think your issues are). As a result, we do far more than just talk about the problem in our time together. Our sessions are customized with energy healings, meditation, discussion, teaching, guided intuition, and the best tools to enable you to achieve you goals and attune with your highest self.

Dr. Machell Bekaert
As a holistic therapist, I honor and work with the connection between mind, body and spirit, understanding that physical, mental, and emotional components of health are intertwined and interdependent. Research suggests that people who draw on some form of spirituality, not necessarily through organized religion, report stronger feelings of satisfaction, belonging, and connection with others.
