About Emanuel

I started this work because I needed it.

I spent years feeling like something was off—like I was showing up to my own life in a way that wasn't quite real. I tried therapy. It didn't get into my guts. Then I did my first guided mushroom journey, and something shifted. I got in touch with something true about myself that I hadn't been able to access before. That sent me down a decade-long path of somatic work, psychedelic-assisted experiences, and eventually a four-year training in Core Energetics.

Core Energetics is a body-based approach developed by John Pierrakos—it works on the premise that your unresolved stuff isn't just in your head, it's locked in your body. So that's where we work on it.

I'm not a guru. I'm someone who's been doing this work seriously, on myself and with clients, for years—and I know what it can do. If you're tired of talking about your problems without actually feeling anything change, this might be for you.
