We were seeing Blake for couples counseling because of our lack of understanding the opposite sex and communication skills. What I really enjoyed about Blake is that he offered to come to our home. We were very comfortable in our home doing a counseling session in our energetic space. He would do one or 1 1/2 hour sessions depending on how well we were flowing, he taught us how to understand the opposite sex, and where each other was coming from. He taught us how to communicate clearly and set boundaries. He was able to spiritually connect with us and help us understand one another so much more. Blake gave us skills to take through our relationship that are going to help us no matter the stage we’re in. We enjoyed working with him and would definitely recommend him.

Blake is an awesome counselor that is highly knowledgeable about his field and philosophical concepts that underpin it. His optional eco-sessions or integration sessions after the Ketamine therapy (walking and talking in nature) are highly effective. I’ve undergone years of conventional therapy (where you sit in an office and get reminded of the same techniques ad infinitum with no prevail, at least in my case). He is an awesome spiritual guide during the Ketamine therapy that can help you remember some enlightening details while in the k-hole. Also, after years of relying on anti-depressants, I am finally able to not have suicidal ideation when leaning off of them. Overall, I highly recommend Blake to anyone looking for a new path from conventional therapy or drugs. 5 stars!

Blake is a counselor who not only listens and does talk therapy, but actually introduces you to concepts and practices that can be used in inner-work such as breathwork. He is very experienced in his knowledge of different varieties of therapy.

Blake is unlike any practitioner I have ever met, with an uncanny ability to meet clients where they’re at (both physically and emotionally), and offer services that are truly unique to and desperately necessary in the mental health field. Blake takes an unconventional approach to therapy, focusing more on symptoms than diagnoses, with an intimate recognition of how difficult it can be to just exist in our world. With Blake I always felt heard, supported, and unafraid to share my thoughts. I have recommended Blake to friends and family members, and I can easily say that Blake changed my life for the better. I am wholly a different person after working with him, and for that I will always be grateful.

“Since I’ve been doing Ketamine therapy with Blake I have noticed that my cravings for alcohol have decreased substantially. I’ve been an alcoholic for several decades coupled with manic depression, autism spectrum disorder. I’ve had 3 Ketamine sessions so far. I definitely would recommend Blake’s approach to this treatment, especially if you have a mental disorder.”

“Blake is amazing in his insights and conversational approach. He listens and provides excellent guidance through this life journey that I’m on. I’m actually seeing and feeling progress in my mental health, which is something I haven’t been able to say in a very long time. I am so blessed to have had Blake referred, what a gem in Treasure Valley!”

“Working with Blake has markedly improved my mental and emotional health and given me a better perspective on life and my relationships. Through careful preparation and guided psychedelic sessions, he fostered a secure and supportive space for personal growth. His genuine care, coupled with an integrative approach to therapy, made every session both nurturing and beneficial. Blake’s personal touch and dedication are evident, making each session pleasant and a step toward mental and emotional harmony”

“Blake’s gentle therapy approach has been paramount in my recovery from a sexual assault. At times when therapy sessions got intense and stressful, he didn’t just step in and hold my hand but held space and encouraged me to experience the feelings I’ve been hiding from for years. His gentle guidance empowered me to form new healthy perspectives on memories I had up to that point repressed. I am so grateful.”

“I met Blake years ago on a PCP referral just as the pandemic was starting which changed things for me. I’ve participated in and completed several intensive PTSI treatments modalities that helped me immensely but I continued to struggle with extreme dissociation from my emotions (except anger and rage – and those emotions were overwhelming me). Blake helped me integrate my prior therapy and continued therapy with him helped me break through the iron clad barriers I’d built so long ago. Blake has helped me recognize my ego and when it is trying to mitigate, so I can choose new options that allow me to see and experience the joy and beauty that surrounds me – to truly live life not survive it. Blake is professional, extremely knowledgeable and patient. I am so grateful he made the effort to stay in touch so when I was ready he was there to help me heal.”

“I was a patient of Blake’s for six months. I received ketamine therapy during this time. At first its a little scary process. A stranger comes over to your house while you are under the influence in a different galaxy. I digress, after a mere hour meet and greet with Blake you quickly realize he is a healing soul. I shared many Monday afternoons with this man. He is incredibly wise, and great at what he does! I saw improvement in my stress and anxiety from our sessions. Blake was there for me during some really tough times in my life and would recommend his services.”

“I was at the end of my rope when I contacted Blake. Years of therapy had not helped my panic attacks, and their intensity and frequency were only increasing. I was nervous about ketamine, even after my prescriber and I discussed it. But I was out of other options. After an initial intake appointment with Blake, I became more comfortable and decided to try it.
— Dave
He is there to help with any difficult emotions during the treatment, but also after when we do the integration work. With his help, and several sessions, we accomplished what years and years of therapy didn’t even touch. I’m free of the panic attacks. When I awake feeling activated, it dissipates in minutes. I’m thinking that’s probably what one could call normal.
Without his help, I’m convinced I would never have even had the courage to try the ketamine therapy, and his guidance during and after are what cemented real, positive change in my life.
Don’t go to a clinic and do this in a room by yourself. Get Blake to sit with you and do the integration work after. I’m sure I could have purchased several very nice trucks with the money I wasted on therapy in the past, when what i needed was several therapeutic psychedelic experiences and the help and guidance of someone knowledgeable and intuitive like Blake.”
“My Ketamine treatment helped me cut down on my drinking and anxiety. It was like hitting a reset button on the brain. I would highly recommend it.
