“Psychedelics do help us remember things that we have repressed, but obviously, they also make us very vulnerable, and things might come up. Having somebody witness that and validate those feelings that are expressed and shown can be incredibly healing for people.”

— Dr. Malin Vedøy Uthang, Ph.D.

For 25 years, I've guided individuals on their journeys toward mental well-being as a Licensed Professional Counselor. While I value the power of traditional psychotherapy, I became increasingly interested in the potential of Ketamine-Assisted Therapy for profound breakthroughs.

I also grew concerned about the lack of standardized practices in this emerging field, particularly the absence of proper preparation, attention to set and setting, and integration with licensed professionals. This concern inspired me to pursue specialized training, completing a year-long program in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy (covering Ketamine, Psilocybin, and MDMA) through the Integrative Institute of Psychiatry.

I'm deeply committed to responsible practice and provide Ketamine Therapy that prioritizes thorough preparation, a supportive and intentional set and setting, and comprehensive integration. I believe these elements, combined with my experience and compassion, create a safe and transformative space for clients seeking growth and healing.

I would be honored to be a guide through your Ketamine journey!

Erica L Van Parys MA, LPC, NCC, PAT

Co-Owner & Therapist

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) accredited by the National Board of Certified Counselors. I have extensive training in multiple modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), HeartMath, Internal Family Systems (IFS), the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT), Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute, and more...

As a neuroscience- and trauma-informed, strengths-based psychotherapist, mentor, trainer, and supervisor, I bring over a decade of experience to my work. Through this time, I've found that we all have an innate ability to heal, and each person has a unique pathway in which they get there.

I have a lot of energy and am very passionate about the work that I do. I show up authentically and ready to go wherever this journey is headed. I know how scary it can be to be vulnerable, let go of control, and “live the work” and I can tell you that Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy is a game changer for me. Let’s see how it can work for you!
