Grounded in Science, Guided by Spirit
Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
Buddhist-Based Somatic Therapy
For those feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, navigating hormonal mood shifts, or longing for deeper healing.
Virtually in California & Washington, locally in San Rafael & Berkeley
Life looks good on paper, but inside it feels like a hot mess.
You may find yourself struggling with anxiety, emotional intensity, burnout, or overwhelm.
Old patterns and trauma may be resurfacing—in your relationships, at work, or as emotional reactions that come out of the blue.
You may feel weighed down by the responsibilities of adulting, while longing for a more playful, fun, or carefree life.
You’re exhausted, stuck, and longing to feel good inside.
Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAP) opens the door to working at the root—where long-held patterns, protective strategies, and emotional wounds can begin to shift.
Many people come to KAP feeling stuck—despite years of insight, personal growth, or previous therapy. They may find themselves repeating the same emotional patterns, disconnected from themselves, or longing for a deeper approach that creates meaningful inner shift rather than simply talking about their struggles.
Ketamine can help soften defenses, open the heart, quiet habitual thought patterns, and create space for deeper emotional processing, self-compassion, spiritual connection, and new perspectives to emerge—accessing emotional material that’s often difficult to reach through talk therapy alone.
My approach weaves IFS, EMDR, attachment-based therapy, nervous system regulation, somatic mindfulness, and spiritual development into each client’s process.
Serving clients locally in Berkeley & San Rafael and virtually throughout California and Washington.

Cultivate Calm, Clarity, and Balance Within
Hi, I’m Kiri Maura, a somatic and Buddhist-based therapist and coach. I support people who are trying to hold everything together and feel called toward deeper, transformative healing.
We start by developing an understanding of the underlying patterns shaping your experience so we can get to the heart of the matter. As we look within, we begin building the capacity to be with yourself in a more spacious, compassionate, and curious way.
We listen closely to what’s happening beneath the surface—the needs, the longings, the areas needing healing—and begin to sense what is asking for change so you can live in greater alignment with yourself.
My approach blends clinical therapy with a Buddhist-informed perspective shaped by years of meditation, emphasizing mindfulness, compassion, and cultivating resiliency.
