Bio
Jill Sitnick is the founder of The Journey Sage and creator of the Heal the Moment Method, a framework for resolving the specific moments that formed a person’s emotional survival patterns. Her own PTSD resolved after a structured course of MDMA-assisted therapy, an experience she wrote about in her memoir, Rescuing Jill. Before founding The Journey Sage, she spent years in education and later in technology leadership roles at Microsoft and Amazon. She now speaks and writes about trauma resolution, nervous system regulation, and the role of psychedelic-assisted therapy in mental health treatment.
