🌹Welcome 🌹

Somatic & Psychedelic Therapy for Deep Feelers, Visionaries, and Women in Sacred Transition

You are standing at the edge of something.

Maybe it’s an ending. A beginning.

Maybe something inside you has outgrown its old shell.

Maybe you can’t go back—but you don’t yet know how to go forward.

This is a holy place.

And you don’t have to cross it alone.

I work with creative, sensitive, and soulful women who are moving through the deep waters of life transition—thresholds that ask everything of us, and often awaken old wounds, forgotten truths, and a hunger to live more fully. The souls I work with are ready for working with me and my fiery, intuitive, multi-disciplinary approach. They are mystics who are ready to possibly descend before they rise. They’re longing to shift their pain at the root, but with compassionate support and containment. 

🌀 You may be navigating:

 The unraveling or beginning of a relationship

 The heartbreak of fertility struggles or the threshold of IVF

 A creative or spiritual awakening you can’t explain in logical terms

 The identity shifts of motherhood, perimenopause, or aging

 A career change, burnout, or longing to live a more meaningful life

 Grief, loss, or the echoes of trauma stirred by change

 Psychedelic or altered-state experiences that cracked something open

 A quiet, steady knowing: “The way I’ve been living no longer fits.”

🌸 What if this pain isn’t a detour—what if it’s the invitation?

In our work together, we honor the body, the nervous system, the ancestral stories, and the deep river of self that knows what needs to change.

I offer a trauma-informed, soul-rooted space where:

 You get to tell the truth—about your pain, your longing, your rage, your gifts

 We follow the language of the body through Somatic Therapy and EMDR

 We tend the mythic and the mystical through Expressive Arts, Psychedelic Integration, and ritual

 You begin to feel yourself again—not just as a role or function, but as a woman becoming whole


"You can't get any more pure than when you have a body on this earth and when you are creating or in prayer or making love."
- Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes -


🌎 This work is personal—and it’s planetary.

When a woman reclaims her voice, her truth, and her body…

When she stops abandoning herself to meet others’ expectations…

When she honors what is dying and trusts what is trying to be born…

She heals the earth, too.

Because the earth is not separate from our bodies.

Because the systems that hurt us are the same ones destroying the land.

Because a woman who comes home to herself begins to walk differently.

She begins to create differently.

She begins to lead differently.

✨ If you are in a season of undoing, unknowing, or awakening—

If you are grieving, unraveling, blooming, or becoming—

If you are sensing that what’s happening inside you is bigger than it looks on paper—

Then you’re in the right place.

Let’s begin.


"There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in."

Since major threshold times may involve fluctuations in finances, I have a flexible, sliding scale fee structure to support you through any financial changes if/when they occur as you move towards a bigger, more authentic, soulful and joyful life. I also offer highly affordable ketamine-assisted psychotherapy groups if it becomes more feasible for you to transition down to an even lower fee at some stage of your life transition.

I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and I work with women (and anyone of any gender interested in the feminine path of descent into the underworld) one-on-one, and I also provide low-cost, intimate ketamine-assisted psychotherapy groups, as well as ketamine-assisted counseling for couples. Sometimes we need to gift ourselves the right healing container or ceremony space to midwife transformation that is aching to come to life through us. You are so worth it. Reach out for a complimentary 20-minute heart-to-heart to see if this is for you 🌹

I believe that magic is art and that art, whether it be writing, music, sculpture, or any other form is literally magic. Art is, like magic, the science of manipulating symbols, words, or images, to achieve changes in consciousness."
- Alan Moore -

As a holistic, somatically-oriented ketamine psychotherapist, I combine an awareness of the importance of lifestyle medicine and a sacred, deep relationship to the body with cutting-edge trauma-healing therapy (like EMDR) to assist you in coming fully alive and fully expressed in all your glorious creative and erotic potency. I have gone out of my way to receive respectful, multi-layered, experiential training in some of the indigenous medicine systems of South America (involving the plant medicine systems of the Shipibo people and the shamanic energy medicine systems of the Qero people), and I consider this to be an integral foundation to the way I provide psychedelic therapy. 

Ongoing consultation with, and reciprocity to, indigenous communities, and to the cultural and ecological systems from which psychedelic medicines emerge, has been woven into the model of this practice.

…Then let’s chat!

It is my absolute joy to watch women and feminine beings soften open, come alive, and access the full range of their creative, erotic, sacred power, living wild, unique, authentic lives. I believe this is medicine for the whole planet. I am proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming. My asexual friends are not precluded from finding sacred, erotic opening as Eros is not necessarily always sexual. I powerfully weave hypnosis, lifestyle medicine, dreamwork, EMDR and Shamanic Energy Medicine in ways that facilitate powerful transformation for people who are really motivated and ready for change.

Meet Annalise Oatman

I'm a Woodstock-based ketamine-assisted psychotherapist serving all of California, but you might also call me an inner child whisperer, fairy godmother, Alan Moore-dork, ultra-Pisces, and Dionysian artist. I help artists and creatives who want more than anything to show up fully in life, in love or in their life’s work, but get hung up because of some seemingly impenetrable thicket of self-doubt, apathy, anxiety, depression, or maybe even trauma or terror.
