jaime d'eredita

Jaime is a clinician and owner of The Collective Current, a clinically centered, trauma-informed, integrative therapy center focused on nervous system healing. She also serves as the lead therapist for a ketamine-assisted therapy program at The Center for Healing and Transformation.

In both her personal and professional journey, she has found that nervous system healing creates the deepest and most meaningful shift in human behavior. When the nervous system heals and we have access to safety within the body, we can begin to experience the unexplored territories of joy, connection, presence, creativity, clarity, compassion and peace. Her work is a collective of clinical training, life experience, passion, inner healing and deep curiosity in the human experience and cultivating spirit.
