Christina Conrad, LPC-S, SEP, founder of Palo Santo Therapy, believes deeply in the innate ability of the body, mind, and soul to heal. Christina has extensive training in the physiology and neurobiology of trauma. As an attachment-based therapist, Christina works to heal developmental trauma and the shame that accompanies it.
Christina’s expertise lies in trauma — childhood physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, PTSD, combat trauma, domestic violence, sexual assault, attachment, and shame resiliency. She has worked in inpatient and outpatient facilities, as well as in domestic violence shelters and community mental health.
She blends a variety of evidence-based and holistic approaches to healing the whole, including meditation, Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. Christina is trained in MDMA-Assisted Therapy through Lykos, Psilocybin Assisted Therapy, and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy through Polaris.
Christina is the founder and director of “The Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy: Science, Somatics and Ceremony” Certificate Program, a 100+ hour clinical training offered to therapists, nurses, and psychiatrists in Tulsa, OK. She is also founder and director of the Open Plains Psychedelic Symposium, dedicated to supporting knowledge, harm reduction, and safe community connection.
