  • Founder

    The founder and CEO of Healing Escapes and MPB Group, an outpatient mental health clinic with over two decades of compassionate service.

    My journey in the realm of mental health and holistic well-being has been a lifelong pursuit, rooted in a profound desire to make a lasting impact on the lives of those grappling with the complexities of the human mind. Over the past 20-plus years, I have dedicated myself to the establishment and growth of a mental health clinic that serves as a haven for individuals seeking comprehensive and empathetic mental health care.

    My passion for mental health care stems from a deeply personal place, a calling to create a space where individuals can embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth. Witnessing the transformative power of conventional mental health therapies, I became increasingly intrigued by the potential of psychedelics as a catalyst for profound healing and personal evolution. It was this curiosity that led me to explore the intersection of mental health and psychedelic-assisted therapies.

    The establishment of Healing Escapes is an embodiment of this exploration—a commitment to pushing the boundaries of conventional mental health care and exploring innovative avenues for healing. It is not just a business venture; it is a manifestation of my life's work, driven by the vision to offer individuals a holistic approach to mental well-being that goes beyond traditional modalities.

    My leadership philosophy is rooted in compassion, integrity, and a dedication to ethical practices. I believe that mental health is a multifaceted journey that encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. Through both MPB Group and the Healing Escapes, I aim to create environments that empower individuals to navigate their inner landscapes, fostering resilience and unlocking their full potential.

    Beyond the boardroom, I am an advocate for mental health awareness and destigmatization. I actively collaborate with experts, researchers, and practitioners to contribute to the evolving discourse in the fields of mental health and psychedelic therapies. My mission is to play a pivotal role in shaping a future where holistic well-being and mental health are at the forefront of societal consciousness, bringing hope, transformation, and resilience to individuals around the world.

    Join me on this profound journey of exploration, healing, and growth. Together, let's challenge the status quo, break down barriers, and embrace a future where mental well-being is approached with compassion, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to the flourishing of the human spirit.
