Heather R. King serves as a certified preparation and integration coach for Heroic Hearts Project and SCA Integration. She possesses a unique blend of discipline and communication skills enabling her to create a safe and supportive environment for clients, empowering them on their paths to recovery, growth, and a renewed sense of purpose. She served in the U.S. Air Force as a “crew chief” on B-1s and C-130s. She had multiple deployments to Diego Garcia, Guam, and Al-Udeid in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and the Global War on Terrorism. After earning a M.P.S. in Strategic Public Relations from George Washington University, she went to work for a VA hospital in Tennessee. As a storyteller, Heather saw firsthand the gaps in services for Veterans with PTSD. This ignited a passion to make a positive impact in the lives of fellow veterans. Heather has confronted and conquered her own battles with PTSD and alcoholism, ultimately achieving sobriety in 2016. In her journey towards healing, she sought out psychedelic therapy in 2020, and the transformative results inspired her to dedicate her efforts to providing support and resources to veterans looking to explore psychedelic medicines for spiritual and emotional growth. https://heroicheartsproject.org
