Safe + Legal Psychedelic Therapy & Retreats

RELEASE THE PARKING BRAKE ON YOUR LIFE

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or trauma? Do feel feel stuck and disconnected from your body, your emotions, and your loved ones? Do you yearn for greater spiritual fulfillment but feel like something’s missing? Do you feel a constant sense of resistance to life like you’re driving with the parking brake on all the time? I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone and that you've come to the right place. I was there too, and so were countless clients I've supported over the years.

  • “I’ve tried everything else, but nothing helps.”

  • “I can’t let go.”

  • “I’m successful on the outside, but still suffering inside.”

  • “I want to wake up, but I’m too stuck in my head.

  • “I’m afraid to die, and even more afraid of not really living.”

Sound familiar? These are the kind of challenges my clients often bring to me when we begin our healing connection.

And I want to share two truths with you that I’ve found over the years:

The first is that life is hard, and then we die. There’s no getting around that.

And yet that doesn’t mean we have to live with the parking brake of trauma and disconnection on all the time, or endure a constant and gripping fear of death that holds us back from living.

Which brings me to the second truth…

There are powerful medicines that can release the parking brake and radically transform your experience of life.

I’m talking about psychedelic therapy, and the amazing benefits it offers, including:

  • Rapid release of deep trauma stored in the body and nervous system

  • Reduction in anxiety, depression, and mental overactivity—often after a single session

  • Reconnection to your body, your emotions, and a sense of grounded presence

  • Dissolution of shame, fear, and limiting self-beliefs at the root, not just surface level

  • Ego death and rebirth into a more authentic, open, and loving version of yourself

  • Permanent shifts in perspective like a fog lifting from your life

  • Enhanced relationships due to more openness, compassion, and empathy

  • The end of seeking—because what you were looking for is here and now

The reason I’m so passionate about this work is because I’ve experienced my own personal healing and transformation.

For years, I was depressed, anxious, distracted, overwhelmed, addicted to my thoughts, disconnected from my body, and struggling in my relationships. I didn’t know it at the time, but I was also battling chronic neuroinflammation from decades of Lyme disease.

First, I explored meditation, and my mind began to settle; then I explored plant medicines and psychedelics, and my mind relaxed into a sky-like openness. I experienced the freedom and presence of nonduality, the living realization of the illusory self-world divide falling away to reveal the vibrant unity of all things in consciousness. My depression and anxiety lifted, knots of tension spontaneously released from my body, and I felt a fresh sense of connection with loved ones.

If this story resonates with you, it’s time to embrace the exciting possibilities of nondual psychedelic integration: exploring expanded states of consciousness through plant medicines, psychedelics, meditation, and more as catalysts to realize nonduality in everyday life. Persistent contact with nonduality alleviates the burden and limitations of trauma and neurosis, allowing us to rest in the spontaneous flow and mystery of the timeless now.

Starting out, psychedelics can feel like spellbinding journeys into ego-transcendent hyperspace, sweeping symphonies of emotion, alien worlds, or the deepest recesses of the unconscious. As you work with psychedelics over time, you may wish to explore the phenomenon I call unjourneying: actively meditating with them such that the medicines have gradually diminished pull to take you elsewhere, and instead act more like mindfulness super glue to train your mind to stay in the here and now.

If you’ve hit a dead end and you’re ready to explore a new dimension of healing beyond talk therapy, I’m here to help you. Or if you’ve already started your nondual psychedelic path and want to go deeper, I can be your guide.

I’m Mira Funk, LCSW, and I provide psychotherapy and transformational coaching as well as legal psychedelic retreats with 5-MeO-DMT, NN-DMT (including analog ayahuasca), and salvia divinorum. I’m based in the United States in Corvallis, Oregon, and also serve clients worldwide.

ABOUT ME

I am a psychedelic guide, psychotherapist, licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), and transformational coach with a bachelor’s in comparative literature from Harvard and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from Smith College. I have worked as a mindfulness-based psychotherapist and meditation instructor in many clinical settings. I have also trained in psychedelic facilitation and integration with InnerTrek. I identify as queer and nonbinary (she/her). Sometimes people assume this means I only want to work with queer clients; nothing could be further from the truth. I am passionate about connecting with clients of any gender/sexual orientation, including straight cisgender men.

My own healing path began in earnest when depression, anxiety, and a gnawing sense of existential emptiness inspired me to take a leave of absence from college and begin practicing meditation. For over a decade, I continued to meditate and sit retreats in multiple Buddhist traditions, including a three-month stay at Musangsa Temple in South Korea with Kwan Um Zen Master Dae Bong.

While my meditation practice offered relief from my distress as well as meaningful insights, it wasn’t until I paired meditation with the awakening potential of plant medicines and psychedelics that I began to notice what’s often referred to as nondual awakening. I used to think I was a separate person stuck in my body in the universe; instead, subjectively speaking, it appears that “universe,” “body,” and “person” are constructs in the boundless continuum of nondual awareness. And even “nondual awareness” reveals itself as a construct floating in this ocean of spellbinding mystery over which I don’t seem to have any control. Read my full biography.

If you’re curious to open up to this mystery, I would love to start pointing you to what is available immediately in your direct experience. Or if nonduality’s not your jam and you want to focus on more practical aspects of trauma healing for your mental health, I’m here for you. Let’s dive in together! My passion is to support you along your path, wherever you want to go.

“Mira guided me through a life-changing process. She helped me discover parts of my worldview I’d never known, examine them as products of my own mind, and let go of unhelpful or inhibiting thoughts. This process of self-actualization will never end for me, there will always be more work to do, but Mira was unique in her ability to show me mental doorways and offer me profound guidance on my journey.”
— Sarah from California
