Your Journey Guides

Deborah Maloney-Marsden is a transpersonal psychotherapist, GPBA-certified professional breathworker, clinical supervisor, group therapist, and altered state guide with seventeen years and more than fifteen thousand hours of practice across individual, relational, group, and immersive settings.

From an early age she was drawn to what lives beneath the presented story studying philosophy, political systems, existentialism, and sociology not as academic exercises but as a way of seeing. She has always had a particular read on how systems work, where they fail, and what they obscure. How people are controlled. How we have been systematically taught to lose connection with self, with other, and with life itself. That same capacity to track what is actually moving beneath the surface is at the heart of how she works.

She doesn't work from theory, though she has trained extensively and deeply. She works from knowing, intuition, the body, the nervous system, the unconscious. From the field that opens between people when genuine presence makes depth possible. What she has learned across the arc of her practice is that we each carry the potential to stand in our fullest, most alive expression of ourselves, and that most of us have simply adapted too far away from it. No matter what has happened, no matter how far we have travelled from ourselves, we can always return home.

Her practice integrates transpersonal psychotherapy, Jungian and psychoanalytic process, psychosynthesis, somatic and developmental approaches, breathwork across multiple lineages, psychodynamic process, somatic EMDR, shamanic studies, and work with expanded states. Her relationship with indigenous wisdom traditions is active and living. The Huni Kuin people hold space within The Journey retreats, and she travels to Brazil to sit with the Ashaninka people, bringing that transmission directly into the field she holds.

The structures that once organised human consciousness are undergoing dissolution. What is being asked of us now is not further adaptation to systems that deliberately destabilise our connection to self. It is the expansion and deepening of connection to self, other, and the world. Deborah understands her work as being in direct service to that emergence toward the collective field, toward group work and community, toward a quality of presence and leadership that cannot be developed through conventional training, but only through the willingness to know oneself deeply and remain grounded inside complexity without collapse.

She is the founder and architect of Inscension a rigorous depth training traversing psychotherapy, breathwork, somatics, transpersonal process, expanded state facilitation, and field work. She is also the creator of The Path Home  a year-long group individuation programme and book in progress: a mapping of eight developmental thresholds that has emerged from decades of clinical work, inner study, and direct transmission. It is the distillation of everything she has learned about what it actually takes for a human being to come home to themselves, fully.

Those who choose to work with Deborah are not entering a process that will be managed or contained. They are entering a field held with rigour, steadiness, and an unflinching willingness to go wherever the work leads. What changes is not just how they feel. It is how they see, how they relate, and what they understand themselves to be capable of.

This is her life's purpose. For now.

There is an intelligence that weaves itself through all of Life, a healing intelligence. It is existence itself and it is love. When we come into re-connection with this current, we remember that we are it. We are rooted in our power, fuelled by Love and Truth. 

Our psyche is wired to survive and protect. It is programmed around fear. Humanity and consciousness are evolving to function beyond the confines of the psyche, we are being called to open to that Life current- to heal, to clear distorted patterns and remember our radiant essence. Expanded states of consciousness offer us an opportunity to connect back into that Current by moving beyond the protective layers of the psyche, fear-based programmes, generations of collective conditioning and strong egoic defences to tune back into that Loving Frequency and restore the divine templates of consciousness here on Earth. 

Phoebe Sullivan is a transpersonal psychotherapist and facilitator specialising in the exploration and integration of expanded states of consciousness. Her work sits at the meeting point of rigorous depth psychotherapy and ceremonial explorations of the transpersonal. Her approach is at once both rigorously grounded and spiritually attuned- she is a trauma-trained psychotherapist and works in the spaces of developmental psychology, attachment patterns, the depth of shadow, shame and psyche, the nervous system, breath and body- and- it is from these deep roots that her work explores the soul, the archetypal, the collective, the ancestral, the energetic and the spiritual domains that, she believes, are so essential in any healing modality that endeavours to work with a human being.

She is driven by the conviction that individual healing and collective change are inseparable. She longs to see people living in the full expression of their essence. At a time of profound transition in human consciousness, we need each other in Love and Truth. Her work returns, again and again, to these two organising principles: Love and Truth- these are the altars at which her and her client's sit. 

Phoebe works in private practice as a psychotherapist, is the creator of the initiatory process Soul Work, holds ceremonial spaces both one-to-one and on retreats between Costa Rica and Mexico and has contributed to psychedelic research fields as a Psychotherapist and Psychedelic Guide within clinical trials at Imperial College London.  She is particularly interested in the careful bridging of these worlds: recognising that the Western psyche requires specific psychological holding, while the depth and reverence of ceremonial practice must not be reduced or stripped of context as these medicines become more widely encountered.

Her training spans both formal clinical education and experiential lineages. Alongside Master’s level psychotherapy training and extensive clinical formation, she has completed over 400 hours of breathwork facilitation training and continued study in trauma and nervous system work. Her learning extends beyond academic frameworks through long-term ceremonial practice, shamanic training and direct study with the plants and indigenous medicine traditions, particularly with the Huni Kuin peoples of Brazil. Her orientation is not only theoretical. More than a decade of sustained psychological and spiritual discipline, alongside direct encounters with potent and intense transformative states, has shaped her capacity to remain steady with powerful processes. Through sustained deep spiritual study, training, focus and support from beings both in this realm and beyond, she has integrated these experiences and learnt how to channel the energy and power they gave her access to. This energy has been her teacher and her greatest training in the energetic and shamanic ways that now are the bedrock of the work she brings through. It is with the acknowledgement of both the gift and responsibility of this, that she is passionately and fiercely committed to this path, to the collective awakening of this planet, and the evolution of consciousness and she devotes her life to that mission.
