OUR TEAM
5-MeO-DMT Integration Specialists
Integration is the most important phase of any medicine experience. It can be understood as the master key that catalyzes maximum transformation within an individual’s human experience. To get the most out of a 5-MeO-DMT experience, integration is non-negotiable. The process itself is hard work. It can bring to the surface challenges, disintegration, and even spiritual deaths.
Enlisting the help of a 5-MeO-DMT Integration Specialist here can be invaluable. They are specifically trained to help individuals unpack their experience and create lasting change within their lives through a variety of tools. When choosing which integration specialist to work with, it is important to consider if they have an intimate understanding of the medicine you are actively working on integrating.
As it is important to seek out integration specialists who have direct experience with this molecule, all of F.I.V.E.’s listed integration specialists have first-hand experience and/or training with 5-MeO-DMT.

Victoria Wueschner
F.I.V.E. Founder & President
5-MeO-DMT Facilitator
Kambo Practitioner
5-MeO-DMT Integration Specialist
Victoria’s first introduction into the world of healing was through plant medicine. Knowing she had found her path, Victoria explored the world, working with different psychedelic plant medicines over the span of a decade, with both indigenous and modern teachers. In 2016 she set out to complete her Yoga teacher training in Bali, which allowed her to gain further insight into the different lenses used in spirituality. After returning to her home on Vancouver Island to share these gifts, she continued to persue her fascination with plant medicines.
After taking time to honor her own process and growth, Victoria stepped into the role of a medical practitioner. In early 2019 she completed her Kambo training and certification through IAKP in Thailand. Later that year, Victoria then completed her first training with the powerful medicine 5-MeO-DMT, said to be the most powerful psychoactive experience known to man. Longing to deepen her understanding of medicine, she continued two more consecutive training over the span of a year. Deeply moved by the force of this medicine, she immersed herself in the toad community, learning all she could in order to best serve this powerful medicine to the world.
Deeply intrigued by Joseph Campbell’s work, she studied the Hero’s Journey at length and later applied it as a geographical lens in her work to assist participants to effortlessly move into their own innermost workings. Choosing to continue her education to best support others, she enrolled in a year-long psychedelic integration training, where she chose to specialize in the 5-MeO-DMT integration process. Her dedication to her craft earned her a position with the international psychedelic wellness company Kaivalya Kollectiv, where she works as both the head of education and a retreat leader, applying all she has learned over her years.
Victoria is the founder and president of Kaivalya’s education platform F.I.V.E (5-MeO-DMT Information and Vital Education). Her mission at F.I.V.E is to provide the world with a centralized hub for all resources and education on 5-MeO-DMT in hopes of bringing awareness to the ethics, integrity, and safety of 5-MeO-DMT.

Joel Brierre
CEO Kaivalya Kollectiv
5-MeO-DMT Facilitator
Psychedelic Integration Specialist
Teacher of Vedanta/Yoga
Joël Brierre is a Yogi, psychedelic integration specialist, and spiritual coach. He began his relationship with psychedelics as a teenager in an exploratory manner. Marveling at the chance to explore the unexplored, Joël began training with Curanderos in Peru in 2001, where he further pursued these heightened states of awareness. Eventually shifting his focus into a deep and devoted yoga practice, he began teaching yoga and meditation and soon moved on to India to study in an ashram setting in Rishikesh. From there, he traveled all around the world, soaking up knowledge and sharing what he’d learned. He was reintroduced to plant medicine in 2009 while living in the Caribbean and began to incorporate this into his yoga practice. From there, he went on to study with various guides and facilitators of differing lineages and practices. With this combination of knowledge, Joël now leads retreats and workshops around the world on the plant medicine and yoga connection.
With over ten years of teaching and multiple teacher training, Joël is certified at 500 ERYT. Joël mainly works with the compound 5-MeO-DMT in it’s pure form as well as in the venom of the Bufo Alvarius toad. This compound is said to be the most powerful entheogen on the planet, allowing participants to experience a non-dual state of awareness in which they cease to view reality as an individual and are completely absorbed into the infinite. Joël believes the toad medicine’s effect on a non-dual experience is congruent with the Samadhi states that can be attained through yoga. He assists individuals through pre and post-integration using a program he derived from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.

Permaculture Designer
At age 15, Colette healed complete quadriplegia with a 2% chance of recovery using techniques she intuitively learned and shares them with her clients as part of her self-directed neuroplasticity framework for self-healing. This injury opened Colette to begin walking a shamanic path of study with nature and consciousness.
Colette supports her coaching clients in the shamanic and scientific aspects of Shamanic Energetic Change Work, offering guidance, education, and support in working with earth’s healing medicines in all forms.

Through one on one, group coaching, and retreats, Colette guides and supports her clients and students with herbal and entheogenic medicine support with safety always the highest consideration. Many individuals work with Colette to learn Shamanic practices, with and without sacred medicines, to support their neurological systems, heal trauma triggers, change unhealthy thought patterns, support neurodivergent stress in a capitalist world, and find empowerment in being able to control their own self-directed brain change.
Colette trains virtually all her coaching clients in self-directed neuroplasticity techniques that help redirect unhealthy or unwanted patterns of belief or cognition for better ones and arms her clients with their own ability to support positive change in their daily lives. She seamlessly integrates the scientific and the shamanic aspects of walking a path of healing.
Following Colette’s spinal injury, she went on to receive a BA in International Relations and Development from American University, has a Certificate in Cartography and GIS, and has lived for many years in the developing world, working in rural villages supporting sustainable agriculture and development initiatives.

K'hIEl Anker
Psychospiritual Transformational Coach
MDMA and Psilocybin Guide
Men’s Work and Retreat Facilitator
Spiritual Emergency & Shadow Work
I am a Psychospiritual Transformation Coach that specializes in preparation, skill development, and integration of psychedelic and plant medicine ceremonies. I navigate this work with a focus on shadow work, goal setting, and skill development, all with the ultimate goal of defining, contacting, and embodying your personal Avatar (aka, True Self). Of all aspects of spiritual and personal growth, I am most skilled at navigating ‘The Dark Night of The Soul’ (aka ‘Spiritual Emergency’), especially when it manifests as depression, anxiety, addiction, and suicidal ideations. My mission in this work is Medicine Culture Reform: a synergistic integration of ancient indigenous medicine traditions with the unique healing requirements of Western trauma by developing open-source codes of conduct with a global council of thought leaders and practitioners. I have been working intentionally with entheogens for the past 8 years, the last 4 of which I have served as an assistant producer and facilitator to San Pedro / Huachuma circles in Santa Barbara. The most pivotal arc of my own spiritual journey occurred when I attended an immersive healing festival in the Amazon with the Huni Kuin tribe for 2 weeks, which included assistance in preparing Ayahuasca and hape – the latter of which I was given the blessing to carry and serve. During this festival, I sat with Ayahuasca many times, and was profoundly transformed. However, upon return, there was no integration assistance, and I entered my first Dark Night of The Soul, ushering me into nearly 3 years of anxiety, depression, and suicidal contemplations after losing my job, home, and partner. As I began to emerge from the darkness, I found my psychospiritual coaching training with Being True to You – which offered the support I lacked after my Amazon Journey, and led me to my life’s purpose in this work. I am deeply experienced with the use of psilocybin mushrooms, hape, MDMA, ketamine, NN-DMT, 5-MEO DMT, 2-CB, and GHB as healing tools. I am a level 2 Reiki Practitioner, student of CranioSacral Therapy, and Gene Keys enthusiast. Before committing myself to psychospiritual healing, I worked at General Electric as an IT Project Manager, at various consulting agencies as a Software Product Manager, and as an entrepreneur in the cannabis and personal care industries. I was raised in Rhode Island, went to college at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, and now reside in Chimirol, Mt. Chirripo, Costa Rica. I live to serve those who seek to grow through intentional entheogenic use, and am devoted to offering the care and wisdom to help them navigate their awakenings safely and powerfully with the proper support and tools.

Alberto Yarleke (Spanish)
Psychedelic Integration Guide
Transpersonal Psychology
Bufo Alvarius, Peyote & Ayahuasca Facilitator
Holotropic Breathwork & Meditation Guide
Born in the late 60s in a Native Q`echua Community on the eastern slope of the Andes, Vilcabamba, Ayacucho – Peru.
The fact of coming directly from a Native Biological root has had a very important impact in his life, defining and linking him directly with one of the most ancestral and recognized practices within the Cultural platform of his community.
Alberto had many extrasensory experiences when he was still a minor; later, in adolescence, he became aware of these natural aptitudes and began to develop them gradually, and so it was that from his early adulthood he became an active promoter of Health.
In the previous period (as an apprentice), during his years of research and practice, he had the opportunity to connect with some Native traditions in the south and north of the continent; those trips besides nurturing, amplifying and refining his extrasensory aptitude, also gave him the opportunity to gather the material and empirical support required to create an anthology of work with the essential fundamentals and coming directly from the knowledge and experience of various native masters in the management, the use of the benefits of the “power plants,” the extrasensory aspect of shamanism, and the knowledge associated with neuroscience and transpersonal psychology for application in therapeutic treatments.
To date, Alberto has a solid experience in this medical aspect of shamanism-25 years.
Therefore, and based on all that experience, he has elaborated a characteristic system of work where he links the influential impact of the energetic effect with the benefits of the deep understanding of transpersonal psychology and the basic elements associated with science.
Erin Doumert
Psychedelic Integration Guide
Somatic Practitioner
200 Hr Yoga Teacher
Temple Body Artist
I am a somatic practitioner and psychedelic integration specialist walking you through your internal transformation, bridging the non-ordinary states of consciousness into your everyday reality.
Hi, I’m Erin, I started exploring psychedelics in my early 20’s, developing a deep relationship with psychedelic medicines, and I started having profound healing experiences.
In 2008, when my abusive husband decided to move out of state, leaving me with a house, a mortgage, car payments, maxed-out credit cards, and oh, I was a hairstylist just starting to build my clientele in the worst economy ever.
My story is like so many during this time, the most significant economic crash in my era. I felt helpless and lost with $5 in my bank account, and I moved into my sister’s garage as I watched my “American dream” coming to a crash as I filed chapter 7 and let my home foreclose. I found psilocybin mushrooms at this time, or did psilocybin find me?
After my first medicine experience at 23, I felt like I finally found myself. The piece of me that I gave to others that I thought I lost. I fell in LOVE with myself. Eventually gaining self-confidence, I moved to La Jolla, Ca, where I owned and operated one of the best hair salons in the world by Hey Hey Gorgeous and the best hair salon in La Jolla, CA. I enjoyed the deep connections I had with my clients, making these women feel beautiful on the outside. I knew I wanted to go deeper, and I wanted to help women to feel just as confident on the inside as they felt on the outside.
After many powerful psychedelic experiences, I found myself passionate about helping others through psychedelic integration. Having experienced a psychedelic crisis of my own and having no one to turn to for help, I have dedicated myself to serving others. I sold my business and set out to learn from various teachers specializing in psychedelic integration and different psychedelic facilitators both in Mexico and the US.
I believe that light can be found in the shadow. Exploring the shadow gives you an opportunity for your healing intelligence to find your way back home to your True Self, discover the Truth of who you are, and live in harmony within your True Nature. I am honored to support you in seeking your spiritual Truth.

Martin Ball
Nondual Entheogenic Integration Specialist
PHD., Doctor of Religious Studies
Entheogenic Author & Speaker
Retired Entheogenic Facilitator
Martin W. Ball, Ph.D., is a writer, independent publisher, nondual guide and consultant, visionary artist, and musician currently living in Ashland Oregon. In the spring of 2009 Martin underwent a profound energetic opening and transformation – the product of intensive work with entheogenic medicines and a year of profound self-exploration. The result is Martin’s articulation of what he calls the “Entheological Paradigm,” a Grand Unified Theory of all of reality from God to the direct experience of each human being, which he characterizes as an articulation of his view on “radical nonduality.” His approach is unique in that he sees the tension between duality and nonduality not as a spiritual or religious issue, but as an energetic issue that can best be addressed through the intentional use of powerful entheogens, such as 5-MeO-DMT. As such, his approach is thoroughly practical, straight-forward, and free of metaphysics, speculation, and attachment to spiritual or religious ideologies and mythologies. The result is a view of the nature of reality and the self that is challenging, liberating, and powerfully transformative, pointing to the true nature of being and personal responsibility as an energetic being.
Martin earned his B.A. at Occidental College in Los Angeles in 1994 where he studied Philosophy and Religious Studies. From there he went to graduate school at the University of California, Santa Barbara where he earned his M.A. and Ph.D. in Religious Studies in 2000 with an emphasis on Native American traditions, Philosophy of Science and Religion, and the Phenomenology of Mystical and Shamanic Experience, as well as the role of entheogens in religious and spiritual experience. For his Ph.D. dissertation, Martin performed fieldwork at the Mescalero Apache reservation in New Mexico where he studied with a number of medicine people and researched the Mescalero Mountain Spirit tradition.
After completing graduate school and being frustrated with not finding work in his field, Martin began writing fiction, which resulted in the four-book fantasy epic, Tales of Aurduin, with the first book in the series, Orobai’s Vision, written in 2002. The series was completed in 2005 with the final installment, The Fifth Temple. It was then that Martin had the idea that he’d included much of what he’d learned from psilocybin mushrooms and Salvia divinorum in the series, and shortly thereafter produced Mushroom Wisdom, which was published in December of 2006. Following that came Sage Spirit and the POD release of Tales of Aurduin. His best-known books are his 2009 publication, Being Human, and his 2017 release, Entheogenic Liberation.
It was with the release of Mushroom Wisdom that Martin started his career as a public advocate for entheogenic reform and education. Since then, he has been a self-published author and public speaker and has become known internationally as an authority on 5-MeO-DMT and for his uncompromising nondual take on entheogenic experience.
Currently, Martin works as an adjunct professor teaching Religious Studies at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, where he is also active on the local music and art scene. In 2008 he started hosting “The Entheogenic Evolution” podcast, and since 2014 has been organizer for the annual “Exploring Psychedelics” conference at SOU, held in the spring and open to the public in Ashland.
Martin continues to share his nondual approach to entheogens and awakening via his books, music, artwork, articles, and interviews on numerous podcasts, YouTube channels, print and online media and magazines, and through presentations at local and international conferences on entheogens and psychedelics. As a prolific author, he is continually producing new books, articles, and essays, and is an avid creator of art and music.
