Elowyn Samadhi

I am a licensed clinical psychologist working in private practice at Tethered Healing Center virtually to anyone living in the 42-PsyPACT approved sates (https://psypact.gov/page/psypactmap). I also served as a lead psilocybin therapist on the UCSD phantom limb pain clinical trial for two years. I have completed all 3 years of training and am a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I am trained in relational depth work, psychedelic-assisted therapies, and numerous evidence-based PTSD interventions. I prioritize working from a decolonized framework and after a decade of clinical work, I believe mind-body-spirit integration is the path to wholeness. I am a proponent of both naturopathic and allopathic healing approaches. I am very committed to my own personal growth, healing, and development, as it allows me to continuously deepen how I work with people. I offer individual therapy and work best with adults age 30 and older. I do not work with couples, families, or children.

With awareness and sensitivity to both personal and cultural forces, I strive first and foremost to create a safe, welcoming space for you to explore all aspects and parts of yourself. I believe that all people have an innate healing capacity & through compassion, we can navigate to the other side of shame. I have worked extensively with issues of childhood & adult traumas & how these painful experiences have affected how we relate to ourselves & others. I specialize in working with PTSD, anxiety, depression, & grief, and psychedelic integration. I am especially passionate about working with people who are open and willing to do deep work. I also enjoy working with those who are interested in using therapy to explore topics such as having a life of meaning, creativity, and spiritual development.

The foundation of my approach is fostering mindful awareness, relational safety, and integrating somatic approaches and guided imagery. In a paced and gradual way, we will focus on uncovering wounds through depth work and mind-body based approaches for exploring your self (“Parts Work”) and help you build your physiological and emotional capacity (using Somatic Experiencing®) to safely process and renegotiate wounds in an embodied way. We will also use self-compassion approaches and may incorporate holistic practices like breathwork and/or other behavioral techniques. My style is warm, non-judgmental, attachment-oriented, and trauma-informed.
