This was my first experience with plant-based healing and I was pretty nervous. Benjamin took the time to talk me through it, explain the process and staid by my side the whole time. I felt intuitively he knew just the right time to stay, leave, talk or just be quiet. He was very gentle and I felt in extremely good (and capable) hands. I wasn't rushed, Benjamin invited to me to look at things from different perspectives, and helped me ease into listening to the mushrooms. It's clear how knowledgeable Benjamin is on this subject and passionate about making plant healing accessible to more people.

You know how daylight can pierce through the dark of night? This is what you have provided for me. A gleaming beam of light in this otherwise dark, cloudy night. Given me some hope to get through this overwhelming darkness. I hope whatever inspired you to do this job continues to inspire you. Whatever it may be that pushes you forward, don’t let it go. You are appreciated.

I asked Benjamin to help me move through a very confusing, complex, and deeply effecting situation in my life. His method is patient, deliberate, and thoughtful. During our conversation, he was able to direct me really more into conversation with myself using simple, yet scrutinizing questions to elicit dynamic perspective shifts. I left feeling more clarity than I had in a while and was able to take immediate action in my life. I’m so grateful and deeply respectful of his work.

My experience with Benjamin’s ceremony was very beneficial and helpful. The space was very clean neat and grounding. Benjamin uses some therapy mixed with the session and I found that to be very profound. Instead of avoiding things that seemed hard we would dive into them, see them face to face for what they are. I’ve sat with the medicine by myself a few times and I noticed with Benjamin there it made it easier to focus on messages the medicine was trying to deliver. Benjamin provides a safe beautiful space to experience these powerful/ancient medicines with the right amount of follow up after the session! 10/10!

Benjamin, you are such a skilled counselor and I am beyond thankful for all the support you [provide]. You were reassuring, patient, and treated each and every person as your number one priority. The world needs more folks like you.

I’ve worked with Benjamin a few times now. Benjamin has an incredibly calming presence about him. He made me feel immediately comfortable, explained everything from origination of words to possible outcomes of the treatment. He sets expectations and consistently checked in with me throughout the ceremony. The hapé gave me clarity, direction and purpose, but only because it was administered within the proper set and setting with Benjamin. One aspect I especially appreciated was Benjamin providing specific consultations with me on which medicine would be beneficial based off my current need and state. He is intuitive and patient, but quietly assertive when the time calls for it. All in all, whenever I work with Benjamin I have a great experience, and would definitely work with him again.

It was such a pleasure to work with Benjamin. His calm, grounding energy put me at ease right away. He was very present with me and helped me work through my intention by listening from his heart. I trust Benjamin and look forward to working with him again.
