Dr. Sabrina Hadeed & Dr. Ryan Reese

Dr. Sabrina Hadeed finished her B.A. in Psychology in 2001 and then went on to complete her master’s degree in Existential-phenomenological Psychology at Seattle University in 2006 and her Ph.D. at Oregon State University in Counseling with a major in Counselor Education and Supervision in 2016.

Dr. Hadeed spent nearly 7 years of her 20 year career in the mental health field as an outdoor educator and nature based therapist. During which time, she spent an estimated 15,000 hours in the wilderness, 5,000 of which were in the remote wilderness for 23 day stretches. These experiences deepened her understanding of the wisdom and power of living to the rhythm of the natural world - amplifying internal strengths and limiting beliefs, as well as, the need for trust and interdependence in others and nature itself. She experienced awe, curiosity, humility, and the existential potency of knowing our place within a larger ecosystem. This ultimately led to the inspiration for the development of this training.

She completed her Psychedelic Assisted Therapy training program with Inbodied Life (led by Lauren Taus) and was later honored with an apprenticeship, as a part of the Inbodied team, helping to facilitate the training. She has also completed trainings in Psychedelic Leadership (from Laura Dawn), ketamine assisted psychotherapy (from Fluence), and is in the process of completing her psilocybin facilitator training with Inner Trek. She is a certified Breathwork Teacher (through Jon Paul Crimi’s Breathe Program) and a yoga instructor. Dr. Hadeed maintains credentials as a Licensed Professional Counselor (OR), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (WA), National Certified Counselor, and Approved Clinical Supervisor.
