Emma Mirabent

My name is Emma. I am a graduated psychologist and I am currently studying Familiar Constellations and transpersonal therapy, in order to combine and use these tools in my work with plant medicine. 
During my Psychology studies, I didn't connect with the therapeutic potential of the approach that we were being taught. I thought that the therapies were mainly based on highly mental, slow, and shallow strategies. I realized that quite often, people go to therapy for many years without really getting to the root of their trauma, either because they deceive themselves and the therapist, or because they don't have the tools to see, remember, and start healing what caused their wound.

It it was a few years later, while travelling through Latin America, that I truly connected with the healing power and potential of master plants in a way that completely changed my life and my relationship with psychotherapy.

First in Nicaragua and then in Colombia, I had the opportunity to live near communities that were deeply connected to sacred plants. Thus, I began my own healing journey in a beautiful and profound process that made me reconnect with psychology and therapy in a completely different way than what I had been shown at university. I could see the extent to which plants can help people truly heal their traumas from the root, from the depths of their being. I could see the suffering that we accumulate by growing up in this society, and the need to work for mental health and collective healing. And I started to vision the role I could play as a guide in these sacred spaces, being able to offer my guidance, support and love before, during, and after the ceremony.

Since that first connection with teacher plants, I started studying them and accompanying ceremonies and retreats by the hand of my project partner, Gloria. I have witnessed profound healing experiences, empowerment, and life changes, and it is my biggest goal, mission, and honor being able to support you in this beautiful journey towards growth and healing.
