My journey opened me up to deep insights, as well as emotional and physical healing that I had been struggling to achieve through other means. The integration sessions afterward helped me process and make sense of the experiences, translating them into meaningful changes in my daily life.

My very first journey had a much more positive impact on me than the past ten years of weekly therapy. I don’t even think I’ll need the counseling now because I feel empowered to work through all my baggage!”

Reflect & Transform with the Power of Science

Our products interact with a serotonin receptor in the brain. Studies show that psilocybin sessions can deactivate the “default mode network,” putting the mind at rest, rather than focusing on the outside world.
By taking psilocybin in a controlled environment, you can allow your brain to communicate in novel ways, causing shifts in perspective, fresh insights, and reflection.

Founded on Extensive Research

Prestigious universities across the United States, including Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and NYU have centers devoted to researching psilocybin’s effects. The field is quickly evolving as new discoveries arise.

“In a small study of adults with major depression, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers report that two doses of the psychedelic substance psilocybin, given with supportive psychotherapy, produced rapid and large reductions in depressive symptoms.”  - Johns Hopkins Medicine, 2020

Frequently Asked Questions

Since psilocybin is a novel approach, we understand you may have questions. We've compiled a list of FAQs for you to explore, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like to learn more.

What is a psilocybin session?

With the use of a natural psychedelic compound found in certain mushrooms, a psilocybin session is often described as a deeply transformative and profound experience that can be a powerful tool for personal growth, spiritual exploration and emotional healing, as well as a sense of connection to something greater than oneself.

How does our psilocybin program work?

Following an initial consultation and preparation sessions with one of our licensed facilitators to discuss your intentions and answer questions, you’ll be guided through a psilocybin session by your facilitator in a safe and tranquil environment designed to soothe and calm you as you work through psychological barriers and gain new perspectives. Following your session, you will meet with your facilitator to reflect on your experience and insights and even discuss possible new steps in your journey.

Is a psilocybin session legal?

The legality of psilocybin sessions varies by country and region. We are one of the first licensed centers in the state of Oregon, meaning our facility and products have undergone rigorous quality assurance procedures.

What conditions or issues can be addressed through a psilocybin session?

Psilocybin, in conjunction with other therapies, may assist in relief from symptoms of mental health conditions, such as major depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, and certain addiction disorders.

How long does a session usually last?

The psilocybin session itself typically lasts between 4 and 6 hours, although you should plan to take the full day off with no major obligations. As you navigate through the whole program, you will spend multiple hours one-on-one with your licensed facilitator, in person or remotely, to prepare for the psilocybin session and then again to work on integrating insights from the experience afterwards.

What happens after a session? Is there any follow-up care?

After a session, there is typically an integration period where you have an opportunity to process your experience with trained professionals or therapists who can help you make sense of any insights gained during the session. Follow-up care may include therapy sessions or additional support tailored to your specific needs.
