Kosu Boudreau

Kosu is a trauma psychotherapist and integration specialist with a private practice in Ontario, Canada. She spent over 18 years as a spiritual care therapist in hospitals, supporting people through trauma, mental health and addiction challenges, and palliative care. She now offers trauma-informed facilitation along with preparation and integration support for Beckley Retreats guests. She holds graduate degrees in psychotherapy, social work, and theology, and is also a certified yoga teacher, an ordained Buddhist chaplain, and a student of Movement Medicine. In 2020, she completed the psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy program at the Integrative Psychiatry Institute (IPI) and has extensive training in experiential, psychodynamic, existential, and somatic therapies. People often describe her as warm, grounded, and carrying a lively sense of humor.
Kosu believes deeply that “the truth can set you free.” Before working with psychedelics, she experienced awakening through meditation and embodied movement practices. At 54, she returned to school to complete a Master of Social Work, motivated by a desire to focus on social change. After discovering the transformative power of plant medicine, she chose to dedicate her life to this path — easing suffering, supporting personal transformation, and contributing to collective liberation.
