I show up in psychedelic spaces to offer spiritual intimacy with honesty and care —rooted in a somatic approach, and deeply informed by Zen, Taoism, Kabbalah, Yogic, and Jewish renewal practices. I circle a scholarly and poetic approach as a tincture against isolation—inviting and evoking a nourishing solitude that is empty yet full of possibility.
Psychedelics are not for everyone. This isn’t an endorsement. But I strongly believe that no one should unfold alone. I am available to help you meet the many dimensions of Self with greater honesty—before, during, and after encounters—so that your explorations are held with care, respect, and a deep commitment to wholeness.

Reports from the field
“Deep, meaningful space...“
“There have been a handful of times in my life when I have experienced a deep calling to do something. An idea finds its way to me and then takes up residence. Oftentimes, these ideas are unexpected, but over time, I have learned to tune in and listen to what wants to happen.
“This is how Shir showed up as my guide. I truly can’t imagine having this experience with anyone else. From our first conversation, I felt safe, seen, and held. This was especially important to me. I had no idea what to expect, never having done any sort of psychedelics before. What would I say or do? Would I be physically safe? Would this other person be able to be with me in whatever came up?
“Shir’s gift is their ability to hold deep, meaningful space. I have rarely had the experience of being so completely with another person. It allowed me to surrender to the experience. Besides their complete presence and care, Shir used some of their other gifts to deepen the experience – their own beautiful music, somatics, breathwork, and conversation.
“I needed to open my heart and trust...“
"My experience with Shir was truly transformative and restorative. It helped bring clarity to my life at one of my most difficult moments of transition.
“Shir made me feel safe, guided, and supported every step of the way. I am deeply grateful for the time we spent together and the ways it has continued to bring healing and openness into my life.“
“Honestly, that weekend and that experience gave me so much… I needed to open my heart, to trust, and persevere. Had it not been for our time together, I don't know if I would have pursued love, against many odds.“
“Care, humility, and compassion“
“I don’t say this lightly... I trust Shir deeply.
“I can truly show up as myself, including the parts that aren’t always easy to face. That kind of safety is rare, and it’s allowed me to do work that I don’t think would have been possible otherwise.
“Shir holds space in a way that feels both grounded and deeply compassionate. There’s a steadiness to their presence, whether in conversation or in ceremony, that makes it feel safe to let go, to be seen, and to go where I need to go. I’ve always felt supported… but more than that, I’ve feltgenuinely held.
“My journey has been a long one, and Shir has this way of meeting me exactly where I am, while also gently showing me how much there still is to learn and uncover. And they do that with so much care, humility, and compassion.”
“Held, seen, cared for...
“In my quest for healing and liberation, I have worked with dozens of therapists, healers, and modalities, and no one has been able to cut through to my core at a soul level the way that Shir has. In our work, I feel held, seen, cared for, and gently challenged to allow my walls to crumble.
“Shir brings an expansive toolkit of freakishly accurate intuition, spiritual depth, somatics, humor, music, poetry, and a heart of gold. It often feels as if we are finding our way through the dark together, with Shir shining their radiant, loving light along that path.
