Rituals of Healing Psychology Group in Encinitas's Old Encinitas district was established in 2014 under California psychology license PSY25050, specializing in addiction treatment and mindfulness-based psychotherapy on 2nd Street. The practice's dialectical behavior therapy and depth-psychology framework integrates trauma processing with behavioral activation, a somatic-oriented clinical model that complements the trauma-informed bodywork at KillaNuna Healing. Graduate training at Pepperdine University in 1999 followed by a doctoral program at Pacifica Graduate Institute anchors the clinical methodology in both evidence-based and depth-oriented traditions. Four years of addiction treatment research at UCLA and a UCSD trauma internship from 2008 to 2010 focused on alcohol addiction, interpersonal violence, and PTSD — expertise that interfaces with the integrative wellness protocols at MK Integrative Wellness in Encinitas. A Bachelor of Science in Nutrition from Florida State University informs the practice's whole-person treatment philosophy across addiction and psychosomatic presentations. Highest-tier cases involve extended dialectical behavior therapy protocols addressing co-occurring substance use disorders with complex PTSD and dissociative symptom presentations.
