Parts of me


Hi, I'm Jonalyn.
I’m a scholar, educator, ritualist, and artist working at the intersection of consciousness, embodiment, and professional transformation. I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (PsyD) from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, where I completed dissertation research on intuitive dance and entheogenic experiences in women — Riding the Bliss Wave: A Thematic Analysis of Intuitive Entheogen Dance Experiences in Women (read: Psychedelic Research).
For six years, I served as Program Director of a graduate Counseling Psychology program, and I now work as Associate Director of Clinical Training in the clinical psychology doctoral program at CIIS. I also offer coaching, psychedelic and spiritual integration, professional licensing consulting, Kambo ceremonies, and Tarot council support — all rooted in somatic wisdom, archetypal frameworks, and ritual practice.
My approach is shaped by Jungian and somatic psychology, Eastern philosophy, and Indigenous ways of knowing. I walk in many worlds: the sacred, the systemic, the artistic. I’m committed to supporting others through personal evolution, spiritual inquiry, and professional clarity.
I'm committed to a life of mystery and magic and often find myself traversing the depths of darkness as I know that it’s in these depths that the understanding and search for self begins.
Art, Magic, and the Path of Becoming
I believe healing and transformation are never linear — they are cyclical, messy, and full of mystery. My art reflects that truth, inviting you to connect to the symbolic layers of yourself: the mythic, the intuitive, the unseen.
Much of my work draws on the cycles of life and death, the symbols we carry in our bodies, and the wisdom that emerges in moments of rupture, rebirth, and remembering.
Symbols of Transformation

Scarab Beetle
Transcending the boundaries of darkness and the underworld, the scarab is an emblem of resurrection and rebirth. It reminds us of the path of becoming - of knowing both the finite and infinite aspects of the self.
Raven
As a symbol of transmutation, the Raven connects the material and the spirit worlds. It invites us into the liminal space between - the body - where deep insight and intuitive knowing can emerge.


Life and Death Cycles
There is no beginning or end, only transformation. When we surrender to the unknown and tend to our own becoming, we can allow growth to unfold with integrity and curiosity.
