Marlo Pedroso, LICSW

Experiential Therapy for Healing and Transformation

ARE YOU:

  • Feeling stuck in patterns that insight alone hasn’t changed?

  • Longing for deeper connection, meaning, vitality, or emotional freedom?

  • Interested in experiential approaches including Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, somatic work, or nature-based therapy?

  • Looking for a therapist who is engaged, grounded, and willing to go beneath the surface with you?

I OFFER:

  • Experiential therapy that integrates mind, body, emotion, and nervous system awareness.

  • A depth-oriented approach drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic mindfulness, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, and ecotherapy.

  • Support for men seeking greater purpose, authenticity, emotional connection, and freedom from self-sabotaging or addictive patterns.

  • A collaborative therapeutic relationship that balances compassion, insight, challenge, and practical change.

Many people come to therapy understanding why they struggle, yet still feeling stuck in painful emotional, relational, or behavioral patterns.

Therapy can become a space not only for insight, but for real experiential change — helping you develop greater emotional freedom, nervous system flexibility, self-understanding, connection, and purpose.

Together we can work to loosen old survival patterns, deepen awareness, and help you move through life with greater authenticity, courage, and clarity.

Services and Specialties

    Psychedelic Therapy

    Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines psychotherapy with carefully supported ketamine experiences to help loosen entrenched patterns and open new possibilities for healing, insight, and emotional connection.

    KAP can be especially helpful for depression, anxiety, trauma, existential distress, and periods of feeling emotionally stuck.

    Psychotherapy

    Experiential, depth-oriented psychotherapy that integrates mindfulness, somatic awareness, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and relational work to support meaningful and lasting change.

    Together we explore not only thoughts and insight, but the emotional and embodied patterns that shape how you live, relate, and experience yourself.

    Men’s Support

    Many men long for deeper connection, purpose, authenticity, and emotional freedom, yet have learned to struggle alone.

    I help men work through shame, self-sabotage, addictive patterns, isolation, and relationship difficulties while developing greater emotional awareness, grounded confidence, and meaningful connection.
