Irene Pérez Méndez

Art therapist, TRE® (Trauma & Tension Release Exercises) facilitator, anthropologist, and nursing assistant trained at EOC (Escola d’Oficis de Catalunya).

For the past 13 years, I have been working and training in the world of psychoactive plants, accompanying more than a thousand people in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress through expanded states of consciousness In addition to academic training and Western psychotherapeutic techniques, living and working for 5 years in the Peruvian Amazon allowed me to learn about and understand a new realm regarding comprehensive health.

For me, it is vitally important to establish a close and respectful connection with the people I treat, as well as to provide a space where they feel safe to delve into their own process.

I have collaborated with ICEERS and BeckleyMed as a research assistant in studies involving Ayahuasca and have contributed to several scientific publications regarding the results of these studies.
