Cecilee is particularly interested in Non-Ordinary States of Consciousness (NOSC) and their healing potential, and is pursuing a doctorate/PhD at CIIS in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology.
When not working, you will find Cecilee exploring the mountains through rock climbing and mountaineering adventures with her husband and best friend, Alex, practicing yoga or spending time with her children playing cards or baking.
