Diana Halfmann, LMFT
Diana has been licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist since 2007, and practicing earth-honoring spiritual traditions since 1998: connecting with spirit teachers and working with other practitioners who have been her mentors, supporters, and instigators for her growth. She studied with Daniel Foor, PsyD and the Foundation of Shamanic Studies, a nonprofit organization founded by Michael Harner to study, restore, and teach shamanism and shamanic healing worldwide since 2007.
In 2022, she underwent a year of Psychedelic assisted therapy training through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute and continued training through Polaris. She currently offers ketamine assisted therapy in her San Francisco practice.
She views training and personal practice as a lifetime commitment.
Diana has been leading and participating in ritual with various spiritual communities, as well as a regular practice in core shamanism, Harner’s term for underlying near-universal shamanic principles and practices. By not imitating any specific cultural tradition, but rather by emphasizing the underlying cross-cultural principles, core shamanism is suited for utilization by Westerners who desire a relatively culture-free system that we can adopt and integrate into our contemporary lives.
