A Healer Seeks to Be the Light They Wished They Had in Their Darkest Moments
Words From Present and Prior Clients
"Paul Antico is my go to resource for the most effective psychedelic integration modalities that heal and release trauma. His dedication to mastering these techniques and commitment to integrity over hype makes him an invaluable, grounding presence in the rapidly growing psychedelic community."
Lorna Liana
CEO, EntheoNation
“Paul thank you for my first two sessions with Rosen Method BodyWork. I am so numb with years not being seen, and then not being touched, like an old field plowed over, spent and dustblown. When I understood the history of Rosen, I was still hesitant. Is there still time to be human, to feel human? Can I ever trust myself again; can I still be safely touched by another? Levertov wrote, "The world is not with us enough. Oh, taste and see..." In the most productive time in my life, I can affirm that we are most alive as grandmothers. And I have a little hope again. The opposite of anxiety is not calm, it's trust. “

I have been going on journeys with Paul's assistance for over a year. In that time my healing has grown by leaps and bounds. Paul has always created the most beautiful and safe container for me to journey within.
His is a calm and naturally kind presence, and the insight he has from years of this work is clear in everything he says and does. I can't imagine my healing journey with anyone else as a guide. I know how truly lucky I am to have found him, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a truly gifted practitioner.

"Paul is a counselor, coach, integration specialist, amazing Rosen bodyworker, and so much more. He is an experienced and attentive practitioner, familiar with life's distant and proximal spaces. I know Paul from the Rosen Bodywork community, where he is known for his warm presence, precise touch, and artistic sensibility."

“I had some very powerful moments in the journey, some I shared with you, and I also realized after that my resistance to the journey (the fidgeting, difficulty relaxing into the experience) was a big theme. As I discussed with my therapist, this theme of resistance and its connection back to my childhood with my grandmother was a big, unexpected take away since it was outside the journey but very much illuminated by it.
I also shared my journey with my wife, and the message I received: This is it. It is enough. That is very profound and life changing for me, and it was a beautiful moment with her. She cried in a good way. I've been much more open to her. She told me she loved the new me. Thank you again for making yourself available for this. This is a big moment in my life. I'm glad I experienced it.

With more patience than I had for myself, and a presence in the sessions that I took for granted at the time, Paul helped me map the internal landscape of my being. From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak, Paul guided me in cultivating the awareness to notice my patterns of existence within my body, to become aware without judgment of the leftover feelings and sensations of past trauma, and to exit the cycle of my perpetual dissociation.

“I have been well cared for by Paul on my healing path. Paul has a strong relational presence that feels like unconditional love. He has influenced my own capacity to hold loving space for myself, increasingly and without judgement.
It is obvious Paul has done much work on himself because whenever I am with him I am directly affected by his consistent groundedness and reflections back to me of safety in my body and my inherent value as a human being. These are precious interactions that have a direct impact on my post traumatic growth, integration and healing path.”

“I was quite nervous about undertaking a psychedelic journey. I definitely knew I wasn’t going to risk it alone. I found these guys just in time and they were great guides! They took their time to get to know me before, and soon I felt like I was surrounded by caring friends. They made me feel safe and calm the whole time. They also came well prepared, creating a pleasant setting for an optimal experience.
The integration session later was very helpful too in getting the most out of the journey.
I would absolutely recommend them to anyone contemplating a meaningful psychedelic experience.

“I’ve been working with Paul for 6 months now and it has been an honor working with such a gentle and compassionate facilitator to guide me on my journey of healing and acceptance. Paul makes me feel safe enough to reach some of the depths of my feelings and I find myself reacting differently and can feel like I move through life with greater ease. Wherever you are on your path, I believe Paul can help you be okay as you are to get to where you want to be.”

Paul’s hands and touch are so gentle and kind they connected me to a deeper kindness within myself. Being harshly self critical as a habit, his touch guides me to more gentleness and kindness in my life, leading to more acceptance and peace.

"Our work together has been very healing for me. The relational part of our being to ourselves and others. The nonjudgmental and acceptance of all parts. You are a mighty good “witness."
