This presentation will highlight a panel discussion with three experiencers who will share their spiritually transformative experiences, to includes the challenges, wisdom, and changes they experienced as well as their integration process.
Katrina Michelle, PhD, LCSW, ACMHP, is a holistic psychotherapist based in New York City. Informed by her doctoral research on “spiritual resistance” at Sofia University in Palo Alto, California, and her own ineffable experiences, Katrina founded The Curious Spirit in 2016 to build community and support people in embracing and integrating the multifaceted human experience. In the summer of 2018, Katrina co-founded Emergent Entertainment, a company on a mission to demystify awakening experiences through storytelling and art. Emergent Entertainment is currently producing their first film, “When Lightning Strikes.” By facilitating personal sessions, groups, creative media, and community events, Katrina strives to evolve mainstream systems so they acknowledge, honor, and include the spiritual component of human development. Katrina fully believes that a mainstream culture that reflects and supports this integrative model will catalyze our collective highest potential.
