About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Hey, I’m Marleigh, and I’m honored to walk alongside those who are ready to return home to themselves.
My work is grounded in the belief that true healing comes from within - that we each carry the innate wisdom to return to wholeness. I help others soften into their truth and meet themselves with compassion. I don’t call myself a "healer," but rather someone who holds safe, grounded space while you do the healing you came here for.
I guide from my heart with warmth, authenticity, and deep trust in your inner knowing. Clients often share that they feel deeply seen, safe, and understood in our work - like they can finally exhale and just be who they are.
I’ve been trained in Integrative Healing Arts and Professional Hypnotherapy/Guided Imagery through the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts. My approach blends grounded therapeutic tools with intuitive presence. I focus on subconscious work, inner child healing, and integration.
My own path with psilocybin began over five years ago through a deeply personal journey of self-exploration. What started as a search for deeper meaning evolved into a calling to walk beside others on the same path. Before stepping fully into this role, I spent years volunteering at plant medicine retreats - learning through presence, witnessing transformation, and holding space as others returned to themselves.
I now specialize in psilocybin preparation and integration work. I believe that the deeper your intention, the more powerful your journey. Whether you’re preparing for a sacred ceremony or integrating what’s already come through, I support you in getting clear, emotionally ready, and aligned with the experience you're stepping into.
During our 1:1 sessions, I help you soften into the moment, feel safe in your body, and open gently to what’s present. Whether you’re releasing old patterns, seeking clarity, or reconnecting with your soul, I’ll be beside you with grounded care - from preparation to integration. I also support post-journey work, helping you ground insights into real, lasting change - so what arises in ceremony becomes part of how you live and love.
This work is deeply personal to me. I didn’t arrive here through study alone, but through lived experience - seasons of deep unraveling, seeking, and ultimately coming home to my own medicine. That path has shaped how I guide: softly, intentionally, and with deep respect for your process and timing.
Iluminar was born from a shared vision between my sister and me - to create a sanctuary where people feel deeply cared for, supported, and free to heal in their own way.
If you’re feeling the call inward, I’d be honored to walk with you on that path
