BIPOC Integration Group
A virtual psychedelic integration group for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) and multi-racial residents of California who desire community support to process and integrate their experiences with non-ordinary states of consciousness.
Group Information
Are you a BIPOC or a multi-racial person using psychedelics for healing and looking for a community to support your integration? A lot of psychedelic spaces are overwhelmingly white and homogenous and carry a colonial shadow. Those who seek healing through integration are seeking wholeness. Yet, healing is not widely available or accessible for BIPOC communities. The intention of this integration circle is to create a held space that can support BIPOC folks to deepen their process of listening to themselves and others while integrating powerful experience into their everyday lives.
This group is welcome to...
BIPOC & multi-racial adults in the state of California who are looking for a therapist-facilitated integration circle
Schedule:
October 4th, 11th, 18th, and 25th from 7-8:15pm PST (participants must sign up for all 4 sessions)
Structure:
The goal of this group is to get curious about the barriers that exist within ourselves as we move towards a greater connection within ourselves and others. The content of the group will be generated by group members’ participation and sharing of experiences with non-ordinary states of consciousness as we move towards integrating possible new insights and challenging experiences that may arise. The group is limited to 10 people with a shared intention that each member commits to showing up consistently for the duration of the 4 scheduled group meetings. The meetings will be in an intimate small-group setting with opportunities to discuss and share lived experiences with each other.
Fees:
Sliding-Scale, $30-$100/week, paid via credit card. Payments for all 8 sessions will be made at the start of the group, unless a payment plan is agreed upon ahead of time with the facilitators due to financial need.
(If the fee range above is prohibitive to your participation, we will reach out if a reduced fee spot becomes available.)
About the facilitators:
The group will be facilitated by Rebekah Bartholomew, M.A., Doctoral Candidate and Ridhi Shiv, Registered Associate MFT
