ONDO Coaching

Somatic, heart-centered coaching for emotional healing and integration.

How does ONDO support your journey?

Maybe you’re seeking something deeper… a place to feel, soften, release, and reconnect… not just talk.

ONDO offers a safe, non-judgmental space where emotional healing, self-trust, and meaningful integration can unfold—whether you’re navigating transformative experiences like psychedelic therapy or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself. Through somatic-based coaching, we gently co-create a space for what’s been waiting to emerge, offering grounded, attuned, heart-centered support that meets you with curiosity, exactly where you are.

This process noticeably increased my capacity to be gentle and patient with myself, and to return more and more frequently to a feeling of self love and trust. I worked through some sensitive issues and didn’t feel judged even for a moment.
— Ari, ONDO client

Tailored to your needs.

You might be...

  • Integrating or preparing for psychedelic-assisted therapy or other healing work

  • Interested in working with ONDO & Pala Medicine for a ketamine + sound session or coaching package

  • Feeling stuck in emotional patterns you're ready to shift

  • Craving deeper self-compassion and trust

  • Wanting to reconnect with your body and inner wisdom

  • Seeking trauma-informed support to supplement other modalities

  • Wanting a softer space for clarity — one that centers the body and spirit, not just the mind

  • Looking to process and integrate past experiences that still hold emotional charge

  • Experiencing chronic tension, nervous system overwhelm, or pain, and desiring a body-centered approach to relief

All ONDO sessions are trauma-informed and grounded in body-based awareness.
We work gently and collaboratively, always honoring your pace, your boundaries, and your inner timing.

Wherever you are on your journey, ONDO is here to support you. Each session is a co-created space — an interactive, client-centered approach to healing. You’ll be gently guided into your own somatic wisdom, intuitive reflection, and open exploration… always at your pace and always with care. Together, we meet what’s arising, and move with it.

There are two primary kinds of coaching sessions, both custom-fit to enhance your healing journey.
Many sessions can be held via Zoom (typically 60 minutes) so location is not a barrier. In-person sessions are available in the greater Los Angeles area and can be combined with 1:1 Somatic Sound into longer 90- or 120-minute formats — a truly beautiful combination. Travel to other locations can also be arranged.

Embodied Coaching 

These guided sessions are shaped by the individual needs of each client, offering a somatic-oriented and trauma-informed approach. The intention is to support those moving through challenging times or long-held patterns—emotional or otherwise—that may be stored in the soma (the bodymind).

Unlike conventional talk therapy, somatic coaching provides a different lens: one that invites exploration of how stress, trauma, or unprocessed experiences might be manifesting—or have long manifested—in the body. This approach honors the intelligence of the nervous system and supports holistic healing from the inside out.

Shane holds a nonjudgmental, attuned space that adapts to each person's unique process. Sessions may include somatic inquiry, guided meditation and visualization, movement, breathwork, sound, and more. His work is informed by many years of contemplative study and training in holistic modalities such as Integrated Vibrational Therapeutics, Polyvagal Theory, Meridian Yoga Technique, EFT (tapping), bilateral stimulation, yoga nidra (non-sleep deep rest), and other somatic-centered tools.

The process is gentle and collaborative—focused on building embodied self-awareness, nervous system resilience, and emotional clarity through curiosity, presence, and felt experience.

Prep & Integration Coaching

This offering naturally weaves in elements of embodied coaching, but its primary focus is to support clients as they prepare for or integrate transformative experiences—especially those involving expanded states of consciousness.

You might be:
• Preparing for or integrating a somatic sound + ketamine session in a clinical setting with ONDO & Pala Medicine
• Getting ready for a sacred medicine journey, psychedelic-assisted therapy, or a deep spiritual/self-discovery process*
• Anticipating or emerging from intensive practices like breathwork, silent meditation retreats, or other transformational work
• Seeking support to make sense of a “big” experience—especially if it felt confusing, overwhelming, or difficult to process on your own

These sessions are a space for reflection, grounding, and actionable integration. Many people lack proper 1:1 support after expansive (and sometimes disorienting) experiences. ONDO offers resourcing, somatic support, and transformational coaching to help stabilize, make meaning, and gently anchor new insights—especially during periods of heightened neuroplasticity.

*ONDO’s coaching offerings are rooted in education, safety, and healing. We do not provide or promote the use of any substances and encourage all clients to be mindful of the laws in their respective region.

Why timing matters: neuroplasticity + integration

After a transformative experience—whether it’s a retreat, breathwork, or a ketamine session with ONDO x Pala Medicine—there’s often a gap between what we felt and how we live. Integration coaching bridges that space, helping you turn insight into embodied change. Together, we make meaning of your experience and identify the next aligned steps.

  • Integration coaching supports the process of translating insight into real-world change.

  • Research by Dr. Gül Dölen and others suggests that psychedelic experiences may reopen “critical periods” of neuroplasticity—windows when the brain is especially primed for learning and transformation.

  • Working with a coach during this time offers actionable structure to help solidify new patterns, perspectives, and behaviors.

  • Integration is not just reflection—it’s a chance to consciously shape what comes next.

  • Shane’s gentle guidance helped me sense and release emotions that had been stuck in my body. My integration with Shane continues, and most notable changes I have embodied are no longer needing alcohol to numb emotions, enjoying using my voice and feeling emotions with my heart. I only wish I had found this healing experience sooner. Thank you Shane!

    — D.E., 45

  • Shane, I want to tell you how grateful I am for your support... I felt safe with you and you were very attentive throughout the entire process. Your openness to receiving feedback allowed me to have a powerful and meaningful experience. Thank you for doing this life changing work.

    — P. Lennon, PhD., 78

  • The integration coaching Shane offers is helping me so much in my day to day life. In my eyes Shane was meant to be doing this work. My experience was better than I could have ever imagined.

    — Maggie, 36

  • I gained a lot of insight about my life purpose and received many reminders about how I’m allowing myself to be held back by attachment, conditioning and fear. I learned that many of the blocks in my life were self-created through limiting beliefs and habitual thoughts and I was able to shatter those blocks by reclaiming my power. Although my life has not changed on the outside, how I view the world and my inner world has changed dramatically.
