Maya Fern

Somatic hypnotherapist and psychedelic integration guide in Eugene, Oregon

My name is Maya Fern, and I'm a clinical somatic hypnotherapist based in Eugene, Oregon, working with clients in person and online. I began my practice in 2015 after graduating from the Hypnotherapy Academy of America, and I'm a proud Fellow of the International Board of Hypnotherapy. In 2022 I completed the SoundMind Psychedelic Facilitator Training Program, which deepened the integration support I offer today.

My practice is deeply informed by my own transformative experiences with hypnotherapy and psychedelics. They shaped how I understand healing and empowerment, especially within marginalized communities. I see somatic hypnotherapy and psychedelic integration as tools for individual healing, as well as ways of addressing the systemic barriers so many of us carry in our bodies.

At the core of my work are empathy, inclusivity, and intentionality. Through gentle, body-centered hypnosis, we work with the subconscious mind to open a genuine state of health and ease, supporting not just momentary relief but lasting change in how you live.

I'm especially passionate about the interplay between identity and psychedelic healing, and about creating safe, affirming spaces for people who hold marginalized identities, including queer and trans clients. My work spans writing, speaking, workshops, and one-on-one sessions, all aimed at amplifying voices too often overshadowed by tokenism and marginalization. My approach is about meaningful engagement rather than performative allyship, so that every session honors you and your journey.

How I work

  • Approach: gentle, body-centered, and trauma-informed, moving at your pace.

  • Consent: we agree on how we'll work before we begin, and you're always free to pause or stop.

  • Who I work with: anxiety, chronic stress, sleep, emotional pain held in the body, and psychedelic integration. Queer and trans-affirming.

  • Where: in person at my office in Eugene, and online over Zoom.

  • Psychedelics: I offer integration support. I'm not a licensed Oregon psilocybin facilitator, and I don't provide or source substances.

Hypnotherapy is a complementary practice, not a replacement for medical or mental health care. I'm a certified hypnotherapist, not a licensed mental health provider, and I'm glad to work alongside your doctor or therapist. If you're in crisis, call or text 988.

As we work with the subconscious, we change not only our minds but our realities, day by day, toward better health, deeper self-understanding, and the deep-seated magic within.
