Soul speak offers harm reduction, psychotherapeutic services to individuals engaged in personal use of natural medicines, such as psilocybin.
Psychedelic medicine has been called the most promising treatment for mental health ever. Studies have shown that many natural medicines, such as psilocybin, are powerful nootropics, meaning that they aid the brain in neuroplasticity, whole brain connectivity, creative thinking, and problem-solving.
Psychedelic assisted therapy aims to facilitate personal exploration and self-discovery with the intentional and focused guidance of a trained practitioner.
Psychedelic Assisted Therapy
Why choose a Therapeutic Psychedelic Journey?
There’s a big difference between having a recreational experience with psychedelic medicines versus a guided one. Creating a safe experience is one of the foundational benefits of therapeutic guided sessions. However, guided sessions also address deeper problems and concerns, facilitating healing work that can be hard to guide by oneself.
Another benefit of guided journeys is that the journey begins with preparation sessions before hand, and continue with integration sessions after the experience has ended. Having this type of support can be instrumental in the outcome of a journey. Individuals often find that some of the most delicate and important work takes place after the dosing session and during the integration phase.
Having a relationship with a professional therapist or guide that includes this in their work, can facilitate a powerful and rewarding healing experience.
What is Integrative Psychedelic Therapy?
Integrative psychedelic therapy is intended to offer continued support for individuals who have experienced MDMA, Ketamine, Psilocybin, Ibogaine, and Ayahuasca ceremonies.
Many psychedelic journeys can feel incomplete after the session is over. It is not uncommon for individuals to feel unsettled after a session - to have intense or troublesome feelings left over from the experience and need more support to process and integrate it into their life.
During integrative sessions we work with your experiences of the medicines so as to find greater meaning and clarity. The goal of integrative psychedelic therapy is to help the self move forward with the wisdom gained from your psychedelic experience.

Meet the Therapists
Dr. Christina Collins Ph.D.
Greetings! My journey into the realm of psychedelic-assisted therapy began during my master's studies at JFK University in 2010. Pursuing a degree in Integral Theory exposed me to a rich tapestry of spiritual traditions, some of which delved into the therapeutic potential of plant medicines. However, it wasn't until my doctoral training that I delved deeper into the recent research and exploration of psychedelic-assisted therapy.
My journey as a guide for group-based psychedelic journeys began when a close friend embarked on a path of expertise in facilitating MDMA, psilocybin, and ibogaine-assisted ceremonies in Mexico. Invited to provide therapeutic support, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact of these ceremonies, steeped in indigenous wisdom and practice.
As I established myself as a psychotherapist in Denver, it became increasingly apparent how these medicines could benefit my clients. Fortuitously, I connected with like-minded individuals at the University of Colorado Denver who shared an interest in psilocybin-assisted therapy. Currently, I serve as a co-therapist on the "Psilocybin in Advanced Cancer" clinical trial, a multi-site study conducted in collaboration with University of Colorado and NYU.
