Paige Watson (she/her)
Paige is a Registered Nurse with a background in intensive care, community and addictions nursing. Throughout her career, she has led with curiosity and been a compassionate witness to many individuals through varying walks of life from end of life care in the ICU to intensive case management of folks living in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver. She is actively pursuing additional training in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy.
Through her own continuous healing journey, she has sought alternative treatments within the psychedelic space, where the use of these medicines have brought deep transformation both personally and professionally. She feels passionately about how psychedelic therapy offers individuals the opportunity to reconnect to their true authentic nature, their bodies and to the interconnectedness of our collective experience. Paige believes in the innate wisdom of the body, the power of vulnerability and is committed to deepening her learning about how trauma manifests itself spiritually and physically by seeking alternative methods to release her own traumas and guide others to do so through breathwork, mindfulness, intuitive movement, yoga and shadow work.
She practices from a holistic, trauma informed lens, a place of empathy and deep reverence for the human experience. She is passionate about empowerment of the individual and feels it is both an honor and privilege to hold space for others as they commune with their own innate healing wisdom. Paige is honored to be working as a Nurse Facilitator for the Qi Psychedelic Therapy Team.
