01 — Program Overview

Built for Clinicians Ready to Lead

The Psychedelics Preparation Program is a physician-led, evidence-based training designed for healthcare professionals who are ready to step into trauma-informed, psychedelic-integrated care.

This program is being developed in alignment with the future of regulated psychedelic care — not outside of it.

This program guides you through the full arc of care:

  • Readiness and screening
  • Intention-setting and preparation
  • Safety and ethical facilitation
  • Long-term integration and growth

Rooted in neuroscience, somatic practices, and trauma-informed clinical frameworks, this training goes beyond theory.

You will learn how to:

  • Support patients safely and ethically
  • Navigate real-world clinical complexity
  • Integrate psychedelic-informed care into your existing practice

This work begins with you.

Before guiding others, you will:

  • Develop your own emotional capacity
  • Deepen self-awareness
  • Build the presence required to hold others safely

This is what creates true leadership in this field. Whether you are new to psychedelic medicine or seeking to formalize your experience, this program provides the structure, community, and clinical depth to practice with confidence, integrity, and responsibility.

02 — Who This Is For

This Program Is for Those Who Hold Others

For clinicians and caregivers who carry responsibility — not just professionally, but personally.

For those shaped by lived experience, including individuals from Iran and the diaspora, and anyone carrying the imprint of war, displacement, or generational survival.

This is not just training. This is a return to how you practice — and how you live.

Physicians & Medical Providers

For those who feel the weight of burnout, responsibility, or moral injury — and are ready to practice medicine in a way that is more human, relational, and aligned with who they are.

This Program May Be a Fit If You…

  • Feel called to this work — but want to approach it safely and ethically
  • Are holding others, but know you need deeper support yourself
  • Want to integrate psychedelic-informed care into your practice
  • Are ready to do your own inner work — not just learn theory

Open To

  • Licensed healthcare professionals
  • Therapists, counselors, and social workers
  • Coaches and integrative practitioners
  • Graduate students in clinical programs

No prior psychedelic experience required.

Why This Work Matters Now

The clinicians who heal themselves show up differently for the people they serve.

Healthcare professionals carry an extraordinary weight. You hold others through their darkest moments — grief, trauma, crisis — while often carrying unprocessed experiences of your own. This program exists because we believe the quality of care you provide is directly connected to the depth of your own healing.

Many clinicians come to this work shaped by experiences they haven't fully integrated — burnout, moral injury, childhood trauma, or the generational weight of displacement, war, and survival. These are not weaknesses. They are the lived experiences that, once understood and metabolized, become your greatest clinical assets.

When you regulate your own nervous system, when you understand trauma from the inside out, you hold space differently. Your presence changes. Your clinical judgment deepens. This is what it means to heal the clinician so you can heal the community.

At the same time, we are entering a critical moment in healthcare.

Psilocybin has received FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for treatment-resistant depression, reflecting the growing clinical and research momentum in this field.

There is increasing federal and state-level movement toward expanding access to psychedelic therapies, including executive-level support for advancing research, and active legislative efforts across states like New Mexico to establish regulated frameworks for clinical use.

When clinicians engage in their own healing, they show up differently — and more safely — for the people they serve. This program bridges the gap between clinical knowledge and embodied practice.
