Amy Borskey Duffer

I am especially passionate about supporting people in integrating transformational life experiences (defined by the one who experiences them), whether that be becoming a mother, medical trauma, or a psychedelic journey.

I use a combination of talk therapy, movement and body practices, Internal Family Systems, EMDR, and breathwork. As a Board Certified Dance/movement Therapist, I am interested in how we hold our experiences and emotions in our bodies and help my clients connect to and express that using movement, meditative, and guided practices.

I support people who are using psychedelics to promote self-actualization and the expansion of consciousness; I help them prepare for and integrate their experiences so they can see lasting change in their lives. I offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy for those receiving infusions or prescribed lozenges to use at home. I also offer Group Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy experiences with another licensed clinician just outside of Asheville, NC.

My personal experience with Perinatal Anxiety, Depression, and OCD (which I healed through the lens of IFS and through the supported use of ketamine) has fueled my fire for helping women prepare for motherhood as well as supporting mothers who are in the midst of the alchemical vessel of matrescence. I believe my soul experienced this pain and darkness to evolve my consciousness and take my healing to the next level.

Ultimately, it has positioned me to know how to help others navigate this place of being blocked from their true expression, disconnected from their bodies, and longing for deeply felt contentment and ease. It is my greatest honor to hold that healing space for others.
