About Melissa Field

I am honored that you would take the time to learn more about me. I am a devoted peer supporter, practicing spiritualist, and a life-long learner. I’ve spent my life’s career in various sectors of clinical research, with the last 8 years studying psychedelic treatments with therapy for mental health. I now offer individual peer-support and Reiki while I complete my master’s degree in social welfare with a clinical focus. With my own healing prioritized and transcendent processing centered in my life, I am heeding a heart-calling to be more of service to others who are seeking awareness and healing.

I have been honored to work and train under the trailblazing researchers and practitioners at MAPS (now Lykos) studying MDMA for the treatment PTSD and eating disorders. I also spent many years studying psilocybin and DMT analogs for the treatment of depression and anxiety while I contributed to the development of the EMBARK Psychedelic Facilitation Training Program at Cybin (now Helus). I have received my own Record of Completion for EMBARK Open Access and I am a certified Psilocybin Peer Supporter (PPS) through PsiloHealth. I use this certification and my experience in psychedelic research to educate and support my peers about psychedelic treatment preparation, dosing, and integration, should they choose to use this modality for their healing.

My Spiritual Background and Alignments:

I personally identify with the Universal Spiritual/Metaphysical faith, and give gratitude to my childhood faith of Pentecostal Christianity which taught me the power of energy healing with hands-on prayer, and connection to Source through light language (speaking in tongues). I now practice affirmative prayer, a technique focused on positive affirmation, manifestation, and outcome. I've also continued the practice of light language over the past twenty years to strengthen my connection to Source. For me, light language is a way to communicate outside of the human realm, and works extremely well when the “human” part of us don’t quite know the words to say. Light language can release mind chatter and doubt, and allow the surrender to Spirit. Kundalini Meditation and Reiki are other spiritual practices of mine that I'm passionate about and are interwoven into my daily spiritual routines. I have a strong connection to my ancestors, whose essences continue to support and empower me everyday.
