On this enlightening episode, we delve into the world of transformative therapy with Mariya Javed-Payne, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Certified Brainspotting Trainer, and Consultant.

In her clinical practice, Mariya specializes in somatic psychotherapy, brainspotting therapy, and psychedelic assisted therapy. As the owner of Awaken Consulting Services and co-owner of the Institute for Integrative Therapies, Mariya is at the forefront of integrating innovative therapeutic approaches to foster healing.

Currently, Mariya is gearing up for an upcoming ancestral healing workshop and exploring the realm of ketamine assisted psychotherapy with groups, particularly focusing on racial trauma—a testament to her commitment to addressing issues at the intersection of ancestral history and contemporary challenges.

Our conversation with Mariya also takes a deep dive into the world of somatic abolitionism, a powerful approach she employs in her practice. We discuss how Mariya is passionate about breaking existing boxes, transforming workplaces, and fostering community through the use of song, dance, and intensive therapy.
