Consultation Cohort

for Psychedelic Integration

Designed for multi-disciplinary clinicians who aid clients post-psychedelic experiences and desire to deepen their skills in grounded, ethical, and clinically useful integration.

With a new presidential executive order that advances research on and access to psychedelic treatments for serious mental illnesses, opportunities such as immersive psychedelic experiences may become more widespread. However, without proper holding leading into, through and out of these immersive states, we run the risk of doing more harm than good.

That’s why I wrote this recently published article in the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists Magazine, Tending the Light. 

Supporting ethical discernment, clinical depth, and sustainable practice

A small, high-touch professional cohort for health, wellness, and clinical practitioners seeking deeper understanding and support around psychedelic integration, with a focus on ethical discernment, preparation, integration, scope, and real-world case consultation.

Begins November 5th
Tuesdays: 11:00am – 1:00pm Pacific Time
Six months- Bi-monthly sessions – Virtual

As psychedelic-assisted work continues to evolve, more health, wellness, and clinical practitioners are encountering questions about how to thoughtfully support clients before and after psychedelic experiences – within psychotherapy, end-of-life care, somatic work, and other healing contexts.

This six-month Integration Consultation Cohort offers a grounded, ethically rigorous, and clinically useful space for practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of preparation, integration, scope, transference, ethics, and real-world case discernment.

Through live consultation, case exploration, and reflective dialogue, participants will develop greater confidence in supporting psychedelic integration within their own discipline while strengthening the discernment, relational awareness, and practical frameworks needed to navigate this evolving area of care.

IS THIS YOU?

This cohort is designed for health, wellness, and clinical professionals who are curious about psychedelic integration and its place within their work, including those who:

    • may hold certification as psychedelic-assisted facilitators or are interested in becoming certified
    • support clients returning from psychedelic experiences and want greater confidence in helping them integrate what emerged
    • refer clients to psychedelic-assisted practitioners and support their ongoing care
    • want stronger frameworks for navigating scope, boundaries, ethical complexity, and case discernment
    • value thoughtful consultation, multidisciplinary perspectives, and grounded professional reflection
    • are seeking a collegial space for depth, curiosity, and ongoing learning

What to Expect:

Participants will explore:

  • scope, role clarity, and interdisciplinary collaboration
  • readiness, screening, preparation, and referral discernment
  • frameworks for psychedelic integration and meaning-making
  • ethical considerations and complex cases
  • supporting clients through challenging or destabilizing experiences
  • sustainable professional identity and longevity in this work

You’ll receive:

    • 6-month Integration Consultation Cohort
    • 2 live calls per month
    • case consultation and reflective discussion
    • guided prompts and supporting materials

Why This Cohort, Why Now

Psychedelic-assisted work asks practitioners to navigate more than protocols or techniques. It requires the capacity to recognize complexity, remain grounded in ethical discernment, understand the limits of one’s role, and respond thoughtfully when a case does not unfold as expected.

This cohort offers an ongoing space to slow down, think carefully, and bring real questions into conversation with experienced guidance and a trusted community of peers.

Rather than presenting a single model or promising easy answers, the cohort supports participants in developing a more mature and sustainable relationship to the work – one rooted in humility, clinical depth, reflective practice, and care for both practitioner and client.

Participants will leave with:

  • greater clarity about scope, role, and ethical responsibility
  • stronger frameworks for preparation and integration
  • increased confidence navigating complex cases and clinical gray areas
  • deeper awareness of transference, countertransference, and practitioner reactivity
  • a trusted consultation community for work that should not be held alone
  • a more grounded sense of how this work may fit within their professional path

A Thoughtful Place to Bring the Questions That Remain

Training can introduce important frameworks, but real-world practice often raises questions that cannot be resolved through certification alone.

How do you assess whether someone is truly ready?

What belongs within your role, and when is referral needed?

How do you respond when strong projections, dependency, idealization, or destabilization arise?

How do you support meaning-making without imposing an interpretation?

How do you remain ethically grounded while the field, laws, and professional standards continue to evolve?

These are the kinds of questions this cohort is designed to hold.
