Phil Searing
Mental Health Nurse
Phil is mental health nurse, and a musician with King's Gambit. In his career as a carer spanning 20 years he has worked with all ages from 1 to 101 and is looking forward to the next chapter of his life where he hopes to use psychedelics as a tool for healing with a burning passion to bring this to the NHS as soon as possible in a safe and therapeutic way. He believes strongly that everyone should have access to these life changing medicines if they so wish and that legislation should be changed to sensibly reflect the mounting evidence within the research base globally, supporting the efficacy and tolerance of psychedelics.

Asa Scott
Counsellor
Asa lives in Northern Portugal where he has been for over 5 years. After a life changing event he decided to leave his career in Finance behind and focus on a new path. Having completed his counselling qualifications, he will finish his Holistic Therapy Training early this year, which then opens up the opportunities to work with people individually or in group settings. Having attended quite a number of retreats as a participant and also as a retreat assistant for the BTA, he looks forward to giving back with the knowledge he has gained and looks forward to holding space in upcoming retreats.
Annette Kaye
Transpersonal Therapist
Annette is also a spiritual director, and giver of the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises. More recently, she has qualified through the BTA as a psychedelic facilitator, and is part of a team running Christic retreats in the Netherlands (www.christic.co.uk). She is also a ceramic and multi-media artist and occasional writer about the intersection between psychology, spirituality, and creativity. She grew up in South Africa and New Zealand, gravitated to London in young adulthood, and more recently, to the northern countryside of England - further north than she ever imagined she would live! - where she finds the close connection with nature there to be a wonderful gift and teacher. Although long acquainted, in herself and others, with transpersonal and spiritual experiences, her discovery of plant medicines has taken her deeper and more convincingly into an experience of the Divine.

Emma Dean
Integrative Transpersonal Practitioner
Emma is also a breathwork facilitator, psychedelic guide and preparation/integration coach, who incorporates tools such as acceptance and commitment therapy, meditation, emotional freedom technique, hypnotherapy and neuro linguistic programming into my therapeutic practice. I have always had a deep fascination with the nature of reality and workings of the mind and have had a lifelong call to be of service to others. I hold a degree in Philosophy, a professional certificate in Psychedelics, Altered States and Transpersonal Psychology and a Level 3 Certificate in Space-holding with the Fellowship of Psychonauts. I am also a Director of Mother’s House Foundation, a non-profit foundation in The Netherlands that aims to make healing and transformation accessible to all through funded retreats. I believe that the mental health pandemic is a result of a loss of connection; to ourselves, to each other, and to the natural and spiritual world. My mission is to help people to reconnect, to transcend the limitations of the ego and become free from within.
