Sophie Watkins
About
Sophie Watkins is a psychedelic integration and microdosing coach in Mount Mellum, Queensland, who works under the name Altered Mind Integration. She coaches in person and online, drawing on 15 years of work across addiction recovery, mental health and mindset coaching, and on her own experiences with psychedelics.
Approach
Watkins is certified as a psychedelic integration coach, a health and life coach and an emotional eating and behavioural change coach, and holds a Masters in NLP and a diploma in alcohol and other drug work. She describes herself as a guide rather than a fixer and puts the client’s own responsibility at the centre. Engagements last at least six weeks and move through setting intentions, preparing mindset and surroundings, the experience itself and integration, where insights become concrete steps. Her programmes cover microdosing coaching, integration coaching around high-dose ceremonies, in-person guidance during such ceremonies in Australia, life, health and mindset coaching, and holistic recovery programmes.
Who it is for
Her services are meant for people in addiction recovery, people looking for mental health support, and anyone who wants to use psychedelics responsibly for personal development, from first-time microdosers to experienced users.
Practical details
Sessions take place in person or online. Prices depend on the service and range from $555 to $1,888. A free 30-minute discovery call comes first.
Care and safety
The discovery call checks whether psychedelic coaching suits the person, and an intake form then covers personal history, goals and current challenges. Watkins says her work rests on harm reduction and evidence-based practice.
