Founder Tobey Hale
I didn’t learn about transformation in a textbook. My approach was forged on the front lines of high-acuity residential care and in the equine arena. It was there I witnessed a profound truth: talk therapy has its limits when the nervous system is trapped in a survival loop.
​
I founded Ready 4 Change Wellness to provide the "chrysalis" that standard therapy often misses. I bridge clinical science with somatic wisdom, utilizing EMDR, Somatic Processing, and Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy to reach the parts of the self that words cannot touch.
​
Whether I am helping a Veteran shed the armor of combat, supporting a Queer adult unfolding into their true identity, or guiding a seeker through the profound expansion of Psychedelic Integration, my mission is the same: to help you move beyond needing to survive and build the biological foundation required to fly.
Transformation isn't just a mindset; it’s a total reclamation of your life.
The Roadmap of Reclamation
A Biological Journey from Survival to Sovereignty
If you feel stuck, it isn't because you aren't trying hard enough. It’s because your nervous system is doing exactly what it was designed to do: keep you alive. When the body experiences trauma or chronic stress, it builds a Survival Architecture of anxiety, hyper-vigilance, or numbing.
You aren’t broken; your biology is just doing its job (survival). Our work together is about giving your biology a new job: Thriving. To be different, you have to feel different. We don’t just talk about change; we engage the physical and neurological processes required to make change possible.
Phase 1: Shedding the Armor (The Physiology of Safety)
The Goal: Moving from "High-Alert" to "Grounding."
Before the mind can find peace, the body must feel safe. We use somatic tools to lower the baseline of your survival response, teaching your brain that the "war" is over.
​​
-
Somatic Skill Building: Just as a muscle needs exercise, your distress tolerance needs practice. We build your "mental muscle" through somatic and mindfulness skills that help you navigate the difficult parts of life without shutting down.
​
-
Equine-Assisted & Nature-Based Therapy: We utilize the co-regulation of horses and the rhythm of the natural world to help you inhabit your body again.
​​
-
Nervous System Regulation & AcuDetox: We use auricular acupuncture to help reset your sympathetic nervous system, giving you back the autonomy that racing thoughts and intense body sensations often steal.
Phase 2: The Biological Reset (The Process of Metamorphosis)
The Goal: Dissolving old loops and rewiring the foundation.
In the "Chrysalis" of this phase, we go beyond the surface to address the root causes of addiction, trauma, and PTSD. We use modalities that communicate directly with the parts of the brain that don't speak in words.
​
-
EMDR Therapy: This gold-standard approach allows your brain to process traumatic memories that have been stuck in an "active" state, moving them from a current threat to a past event.
​
-
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP): For those who feel stuck, KAP acts as a catalyst. It creates a temporary window of neuroplasticity where old ego structures can dissolve, making a total nervous system reset and restructuring possible.
​
-
Somatic Processing: We track the physical language of your trauma to release the stored energy of past "survival loops" trapped in your muscles and nervous system.
​
Phase 3: Emergence & Flight (The Practice of Sovereignty)
The Goal: Living from Wants rather than just Needs.
Transformation is only complete when it is integrated. This is the stage where you take flight in your new identity, moving through the world with a body that finally supports your dreams.
-
Psychedelic Integration: We provide a safe, clinical container to ground the insights gained in non-ordinary states and weave them into lasting, biological change.
-
Identity & Queer-Affirming Care: We specialize in the "unfolding" of identity, helping you shed societal expectations and live authentically in your true orientation.
-
Post-Combat & Life Transition Adjustment: We help Veterans and high-performers translate their "survival armor" into the wisdom and sovereignty needed for a life of peace.

Become Mindful!
Racing thoughts and intense body sensations can overwhelm our rational brains taking away our autonomy.
​
Mindfulness is a learned process that can give us back our control. Here at Ready-4-Change Wellness, our providers weave mindfulness practices into every appointment to build your mental muscle.

Become Skillful!
Vulnerabilities like poor parenting and genetic dispositions leave us susceptle to mental health struggles.
​
Fortunately, we can learn somatic and mindfulness skills to help us navigate the difficult parts of our lives. Just like a muscle needs exercise, our distress tolerance skills need practice too.
