Tecolocoyotl Therapy Practice

Healing in Harmony—Blending Ancestral Wisdom and Modern Science.

My name is Erika Tecolocoyotl, the second being my indigenous name. As a somatic therapist and MFT Associate, I integrate Somatic Therapy, Curanderismo, Psychedelic Integration, Processwork, Sensorimotor, and Earth-based practices. My journey into this work began with my healing experience with plant medicine. Through this process, I discovered a deep sense of empowerment and multidimensionality, and it became my calling to accompany others on their healing journeys and self-discovery.

My indigenous background profoundly influences my work. This approach recognizes healing as harmony between mind, body, heart, spirit, and environment. I view the environment as an essential healing element, grounded in the understanding that we are all, in essence, interconnected. This perspective is supported by quantum physics and the web of life cosmology by Indigenous people. This allows me to provide care and guidance on how our body, heart, mind, spirit, and other structures shape our daily lives. By blending ancient earth-based wisdom, quantum physics, and a decolonizing lens, I offer a comprehensive and dynamic approach to healing.

Apapacho Gatherings

Apapacho, derived from the Náhuatl language, means "to caress or comfort with the soul." This offering is a take on cuddle parties, guided by ancient practices, somatic exercises, and play. It is an embodied relational experience that encourages deep embodiment and attunement.

Therapeutic Approach

My therapeutic approach invites clients to reconnect with their inner wisdom by exploring the messages of the heart, body, mind, and spirit, and cultivating harmony within. Through my experience with psychedelics and Indigenous practices, I approach healing through earth-based methods that are empowering and accessible to all who choose to engage with them. I also bring a decolonial perspective, supporting clients in exploring how societal structures shape their lives and relationships. My hope is to walk alongside you on your healing journey, meeting you where you are and helping you discover what healing looks like for you.
