Andrés González relates to himself firstly as a spiritual being embodying, Earth-side, the multiplicity of gender, sexuality, race, and culture as a two-spirit Mestizo with primarily Yoeme (Yaqui), Mexican, Spanish, and Scottish ancestries. He is also a transracial adoptee, connected to a lineage of Indigenous adoptees separated from family, land, and culture by way of the U.S. child welfare system.

Andrés’ lived experience navigating and integrating these many worlds has shaped his path as a practitioner of curanderismo, Dharma teacher, community mental health clinician, writer, and song-carrier. His work moves at the meeting point of contemplative practice, earth-based healing traditions, and global movements for liberation and regenerative world-building. Alongside his teaching, Andrés accompanies others through therapeutic and spiritual processes of healing, integration, and transformation. He is also a vocalist and ceremonial prayer-song carrier whose offerings often weave meditation, ritual, story, and collective inquiry.

Trained in harm reduction, healing-justice, and Indigenous psychology as a psychotherapist, he holds a Master’s degree in Social Work. He is a graduate of East Bay Meditation Center’s two-year Spiritual Teacher and Leadership Training and the Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics’ certification program in psychedelic facilitation (2023–2024).

Andrés is the author of Blood, Bone, & Breath, a Substack publication exploring transmissions from the ecotone—the fertile threshold where the in-between whispers of home, portal, and worlds yet to come.
