Frequently Asked Questions

 Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in certain species of mushrooms. You likely know them as "magic mushrooms." It's a tryptamine, which affect the brain’s serotonin receptors, particularly the 5-HT2A receptor. 


Psilocybin facilitation is a guided experience with a trained professional who supports you before, during, and after a psilocybin journey. The goal is to create a safe and intentional space for healing, insight, and growth. 


You’ll take a carefully measured dose of psilocybin in a quiet, comfortable setting. The session may involve introspection, emotional processing, or visionary experiences. A facilitator is present to provide support and ensure your safety throughout. 


The active experience typically lasts 2 to 6 hours (depending on the dose), with additional time for preparation and aftercare. Plan for a full day, including time to rest and reflect afterward.


Yes! Psilocybin is legal in the state of Oregon under the guidance of a trained, licensed facilitator. Read more about the Oregon Law.


Currently, Psilocybin is only approved for use in a therapeutic setting in the state of Oregon and Colorado. Though I've heard WA is exploring the idea. Learn more about WA State Psychedelics.


Psilocybin is generally safe for healthy individuals when used responsibly and in the right setting under the care of a trained professional.


Nope. Access to psilocybin does not require a prescription or medical referral. 


Unfortunately, no.  While insurance coverage is not currently available, ongoing research and advocacy efforts may influence future policy changes regarding the inclusion of psilocybin therapy in insurance plans.

Under Oregon law, individuals must be 21 years of age or older. 


It's completely normal to be afraid. I was. Letting go and trusting the process can be a scary thing to do. Which is why it's important to have a Facilitator you trust holding space for you every step of the way. I recommend people start with a free Discovery Call, and if I'm not the right person for you, I can refer you to someone who is.
