about us

  • Ann ALVES

    Ann

    Ann is a psychotherapist with over a decade of clinical experience helping people navigate the intricate terrain of mental health challenges, life transitions, and psychedelic experiences. Driven by a deep inner calling, her quest for holistic healing took her on a transformative odyssey to Costa Rica, Peru, and the Amazon of Brazil where she had the privilege of learning directly from indigenous communities and working alongside the Yawanawa tribe, translating and holding space during sacred ceremonies.

    Through her personal experiences and the profound transformations she witnessed, Ann now seamlessly integrates the wisdom of traditional education, shamanic practices, energy, and plant medicines into her therapeutic work. Ann's mission is to empower and guide individuals on their own healing and personal transformation journeys, blending the richness of ancestral wisdom with modern psychology to harmonize body, mind and spirit.
