Our Leaders
Lynn M. Hynes, PhD, LMFTA
Lynn is a psychotherapist in private practice in Indianapolis. Her deep interest in ecopsychology and indigenous cultures was awakened in 1999 when she travelled to Peru to hike the Inca Trail. Since that time, Lynn has returned to Peru, other South American countries, and Mexico studying various shamanic traditions. During her graduate school studies, she did her field work with sacred plant medicine in Peru. Of particular interest to Lynn since 1993 is the work of C.G. Jung and the intersectionality of his writings and shamanic traditions. Lynn has lead retreats, lectures, and workshops helping people connect to the inner and outer landscapes and to facilitate healing and growth in the natured world.
