Sometimes, you may not have a clear physical or emotional ailment that can be diagnosed, but you sense something is not right. This can include feeling out of sorts, lost, deeply sad or depressed, anxious, burdened, or heavy. It can be due to known trauma, family or ancestral wounds, or any number of other reasons. Western medicine pathologizes and medicates you when you present with “mystery” issues, but offers no real tools for healing them.

For many years, Dr. Maya has studied with teachers of the invisible world– shamans, medicine people, indigenous elders, as well as having spent many years of learning directly from plant teachers—and has now been charged by them to share this healing work more fully.

In general, insurance companies compel physicians to use invasive interventions and discourage spending time with patients. Dr. Maya’s success is based on her ability to spend unhurried time with each family in order to develop highly individualized therapeutic plans that draw from a broad spectrum of integrative modalities. It is impossible to deliver this high quality of care within the insurance system. As such, Dr. Shetreat does not accept insurance.

If you cancel or reschedule your appointment fewer than 5 business days in advance of the appointment, you will be charged the full fee.

Dr. Maya is a dynamic, engaging presenter who delivers cutting edge information and innovative approaches in an accessible and compassionate way. She has spoken around the world on a wide range of topics including:

The healing power of nature; “The Dirt Cure”; Terrain Medicine; plant medicine and plant consciousness; healing the healer; herbal medicine, children’s health; and brain health.

You can heal. The Earth Can Help.

Years ago, Dr. Maya experienced a healing crisis of her own that took her on a journey to Ecuador to study with traditional healers and shamans. She founded the Terrain Institute when she recognized the glaring absence of attention to emotional and spiritual health. She now teaches about Earth Medicine—a journey into developing a relationship with the Earth’s healing, exploring it from all perspectives: science, sacred, intuition, ancient traditions, and everything burned with the so-called “witches.” Through connecting more deeply to your own inner guidance, these transformative programs can help change your life, the lives of those you love, and the lives of those you work with. You will gain an array of new and accessible tools to use in challenging (and all!) situations.
