Althea's Pick: Legal Psilocybin Experience

Hosted by Althea

Althea's Pick is designed to reach the people who haven't yet been able to access legal psilocybin services because of price. Legal psilocybin sessions in Oregon and Colorado typically cost between $1,000 and $3,000. We believe cost should not be the reason someone misses out on an experience that could meaningfully change their life. For $500, Althea's Pick includes preparation, a facilitated psilocybin session, and integration support. We consider all three components essential to a safe and effective experience, and they are required by law in both states. To make this price possible, you do not select your own facilitator. Instead, our Psychedelic Care Navigation team reviews your intake, learns about your goals and preferences, and matches you into a small group (4-8 participants) with a licensed facilitator based on availability, location, and fit. This is how we keep the cost at a fraction of the market rate while still delivering a high standard of care. Every facilitator on Althea's platform is licensed, vetted, and backed by participant-reported outcome data. You are in qualified hands. Note: the price for this experience will increase from $500 to $750 on July 1, 2026.

Finding Ground Again: A Psilocybin Journey for Trauma & PTSD

Hosted by Catie Tobin

Colorado

If you’re feeling held back by the lasting impacts of traumatic experiences and seeking deeper healing in a safe, clinically held container, this experience may be a good fit for you. Many people who find their way to psilocybin-assisted therapy have already tried other things - talk therapy, EMDR, medication, time. Perhaps some of it has helped, but you have a sense that deeper healing is still possible. Finding Ground Again is a private, individualized psilocybin journey for adults healing from trauma, PTSD, or the lasting weight of difficult experiences. I'm Catie, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Addiction Counselor, and trained psilocybin facilitator based in Colorado. Trauma work has been at the center of my practice since I became a therapist, and I've built a specific toolkit around it: EMDR, parts work, somatic techniques, and now psilocybin-assisted therapy. These aren't things I learned in isolation — they came together through years of working with people carrying real weight, and through my own experiences with therapy, healing, and expanded states of consciousness. That personal path is a big part of why I do this work, and it shapes the presence I bring into every session. What psilocybin offers in the realm of trauma is something that can be hard to access through other means - a loosening of fixed patterns, a wider view, a deeper form of processing, and sometimes a felt sense of safety in the body that's been missing for a long time. My role is threefold: to prepare you well, to hold a physically and emotionally safe container on the day, and to help you integrate what emerges into real and lasting change. The base package includes three virtual preparation sessions, an in-person 1:1 psilocybin experience at Go Within Collective (a licensed healing center in Lakewood, Colorado), and two virtual integration sessions afterward. For those who want deeper support, additional preparation and integration sessions are available, giving us extra time to weave in other trauma modalities, work through what emerged at a pace that feels right, and coordinate with your existing therapist or other providers as needed. I want to understand your healing journey fully: where you've been, what's helped, and how this experience fits into your path. I bring advanced clinical training in trauma, including specialized work in dissociation, the relationship between trauma and substance use, and the relational impacts of trauma. My approach is clinical and also deeply human, and we can take as much time as we need to do it right. Part of that is simply getting to know each other. I think humor, warmth, and genuine connection are as important to this work as any clinical training, and I bring all of it. This is brave and meaningful work. If you're ready to take this step, I'd be glad to support you along the way.

Individual Journeys in Bend Oregon

Hosted by Melinda Halpern

Oregon

I offer professionally facilitated psilocybin journeys in Bend, Oregon, including individual experiences for adults and women. Each offering is grounded in preparation, emotional safety, and thoughtful integration — because meaningful psychedelic work begins well before the medicine day and continues long after it ends. My approach combines licensed psilocybin facilitation with over 25 years of clinical experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in attachment, trauma, and OCD treatment. Since becoming a licensed psilocybin facilitator in Oregon in 2023, I have supported clients seeking compassionate, ethically grounded, and deeply informed psychedelic care.

Career Crossroads - 1:1 Psilocybin Session for Professionals Seeking Clarity in Their Next Chapter

Hosted by Sage Dutra

Oregon

This program is built for professionals at a crossroads. Not in crisis. Just done with putting out small fires without ever asking where the smoke is coming from. You've done everything right. Built the career. Hit the goals. Stayed on top of your game. And yet something feels off. Maybe it's burnout that won't go away no matter how many weekends you unplug. Maybe it's the creeping sense that work, once meaningful, now feels mechanical. Maybe you've reached a level of success others admire, but inside you feel numb, tired, or disconnected. You've tried the usual remedies. Productivity hacks. Morning routines. Coaching programs that gave you more to do, more to track, more to force. They scratched the surface, but never reached the part of you that's been aching for something deeper. I've been there. I'm a father of five who spent fifteen years building a career that looked great from the outside while a quiet voice in the back of my mind kept asking, ""Is this really it?"" Eventually, psilocybin gave me the space and clarity I'd been looking for all along. It didn't tell me to leave my work. It reoriented me around what actually mattered, and renewed my energy and sense of purpose, not just as a professional, but as a father, a partner, and a human being. What clients tend to leave with: a clearer sense of what matters to them now, honest recognition of what they've been postponing knowing, and a way to make a choice they've been circling for months feel like theirs to make. Many describe it as coming home to themselves. Some return to their current vocation with a different relationship to it. Some make the move they've been considering for years. It's best not to approach psilocybin work expecting a clear ""plan"" on what comes next, rather, an invitation to meet yourself on a much deeper level and realign your career from a place of peace. I've guided over 50 clients through this work since becoming licensed by the Oregon Health Authority in 2023. Most are first-time psilocybin users. The program format (preparation, journey day at a licensed service center in Portland, integration) is detailed in the 'What's Included' section below. Note: Psilocybin itself is purchased legally at the service center on your journey day and typically costs around $200. This is the only cost beyond the program fee.

Individual

Three to four weeks total, including: one to two preparation sessions over video (up to four hours combined), one full-day psilocybin session at a licensed service center in Portland (approximately eight hours), and one integration session afterward (60 to 90 minutes).

Grounded Psilocybin Journeys for Reconnecting to Self Beyond Survival Mode

Hosted by Char McKendrick

Oregon

This offering is designed for people navigating chronic survival states, complex trauma patterns, burnout, identity shifts, emotional disconnection, or the feeling of having spent much of life adapting rather than fully inhabiting themselves. Many of the people drawn to this work are highly sensitive, deeply self-aware, neurodivergent, analytical, or accustomed to carrying a great deal internally. Some have spent years in therapy or personal growth spaces and still feel disconnected from their body, emotions, intuition, or sense of self-trust. This work is not about fixing you. It’s about creating the conditions for reconnection. I’m a licensed psilocybin facilitator whose own healing journey with psychedelics began through working with CPTSD, trauma, neurodivergence, and reclaiming inner sovereignty after survival mode. That lived experience continues to shape the grounded, compassionate, trauma-informed care I offer today. My personal philosophy blends psychology, medicine, spirituality, symbolism, research, and a touch of absurdism. I see these not as competing frameworks, but as different languages pointing toward the same underlying mystery. My approach is very much “take what resonates, leave what doesn’t.” Together, we focus on what feels meaningful and supportive for you. My facilitation style is collaborative, adaptive, and client-centered. Rather than leading or interpreting your experience, I help create a safe and supportive container where your own inner healing intelligence can emerge. During the journey, I remain present the entire time, offering steady, attuned support while responding to what is needed in the moment. Preparation and integration are essential parts of the process. We spend time beforehand clarifying intentions, building trust, and developing tools for navigating the experience. Afterwards, we work together to help integrate insights into daily life. I’m especially mindful of sensory sensitivity and nervous system awareness. I do not use incense, sage, or strong scents in the space. Music is thoughtfully curated based on your intentions and personal story. Journey days are available through Chariot and Rose Waters Sanctuary in Portland, as well as Ripple Journeywork in Eugene. Preparation and integration sessions can take place virtually or in person for clients in the Portland and Eugene areas.

Deepen Your Connection with the One You Love

Hosted by Benjamin Dancer

Colorado

I’ve been with Angie, my true love, since 1995. One of my favorite things about being married is all the adventures that continue to deepen our connection. Psilocybin is a great way to have an adventure like that! There’s a good reason they call it a journey. Most couples I work with find that psilocybin can support connection where there was once separation. We carry wounds from the past into our relationships. These wounds can set up patterns that keep us apart from the ones we love. Imagine an adventure you take with your lover that allows you to understand each other more completely. An adventure in which you use the love you have for one another as the resource that helps you to heal. An adventure that helps you understand and, importantly, appreciate why it is you relate the way you do. Imagine a psilocybin journey that allows you to move closer by venturing into the very territory that might otherwise keep you apart. I tell the possibility of that adventure because this is what so many of the couples I’ve worked with over the years have experienced. Psilocybin has been a powerful tool for them to understand how their past impacts their relationship and to find more connection. One of my favorite things about my job is that I get to design these packages to help couples set off on their own adventure! Additional preparation and integration sessions can be added for $225 per 90 minute session. Preparation and integration can be done in person or on Zoom, depending on your location.

3 Night Private Psilocybin Retreat

Hosted by Michelle Harrell

Oregon

Three days in a luxury yurt tucked into the woods of Southwest Portland, 15 minutes from downtown but a world away from it. You'll arrive the day before your journey to decompress and settle in. On session day, your facilitator handles transportation to and from the service center so you can stay fully in the experience. The days after are yours for integration: journaling on the deck, sitting in the barrel sauna, or walking the trails at nearby Tryon State Park. Michelle Harrell has guided guests from across the country through this process, and the retreat is built around her approach: thorough preparation, a safe and supported journey, and structured space afterward to let the experience land. Note: Psilocybin mushrooms are purchased separately at the service center on the day of your journey and are not included in the package price.

Recovery That Goes Deeper Than Sobriety: Psilocybin Support for Addiction

Hosted by Erin Witter

Colorado

If you've put in the time — the meetings, the therapy, the rebuilding — and something still feels unresolved, you're not imagining this. Addiction has deep and powerful psychosomatic impacts that take time and deep work to transform. Addiction recovery most often addresses the behavior. What it doesn't always reach is what's underneath: the gaps it was filling, the shame, the disconnection, the version of yourself you lost contact with somewhere along the way. That's where our work together begins. I welcome your therapist or sponsor to be part of the process. Psilocybin, in a structured and supported setting, creates conditions for that deeper layer to become accessible. Clinical research specifically supports its potential in substance use disorder recovery — particularly for people who haven't found adequate relief through conventional approaches. This isn't an escape from the work you've already done. It's a way to go further into it. I know what it's like to sit in discomfort. I spent 25 years in active addiction before finding my way through — and the path involved a lot of the same tools you've probably tried. What finally moved things forward was intentionally working with psilocybin, with preparation and structure, in a safe container, followed by reflection and integration. Our work together has three phases. Preparation — we meet 1:1 before your session to clarify your intentions, establish safety, and build your pathway to recovery. This is the training for what's ahead — the work that makes the session meaningful. Your therapist or sponsor is welcome to attend preparation sessions. Session — a full-day supported psilocybin experience at Happy Rebel Healing, 3450 Penrose Pl STE 220, Boulder, CO 80301, a licensed Healing Center in Boulder, Colorado, within Colorado's regulated natural medicine framework. Six to eight hours of continuous, grounded support. You are not alone in the room or in the experience. Integration — we meet after the session to make sense of what came up and translate it into something lasting, because insight without integration is just an interesting experience. Your therapist or sponsor is welcome to attend integration sessions. This may be right for you if: You've been in recovery, and something still feels unresolved Traditional approaches haven't reached an unmet need that’s still there underneath You're carrying shame or disconnection that sobriety alone hasn't touched You know the problem was never just the substance The change you're looking for is already in you. The goal of our work together is to help clear the path to discovery and resolution. Scheduled over 3–4 weeks. All packages include one full-day psilocybin session (6–8 hours) plus 1:1 preparation and integration sessions.

Mindful Self-Compassion + Psilocybin Journey

Hosted by Mike Averill

Oregon

An 8-week online Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) course followed by an in-person group psilocybin journey in Portland. The program pairs one of the most research-backed compassion training frameworks with a guided psychedelic experience designed to deepen and solidify the work. The MSC course runs Sundays, October 4 through November 22, 2026, from 3 to 6 PM Pacific on Zoom.

Mike Averill is a licensed clinical social worker, trained MSC teacher, and licensed psilocybin facilitator. He's joined by co-instructors Daria Crymes and Missy McMurray, both experienced mindfulness practitioners and facilitators. The facilitation ratio means you're well-supported in a group of up to 16. No meditation experience is required. The program also satisfies a prerequisite for anyone pursuing MSC teacher certification.

Inner Temple Retreat (Women Only)

Hosted by Jamie Ware

A beautiful and sacred transformational experience for women, with two psilocybin journeys, time in nature, and healing in community.

For the Ones Who've Tried Everything: A 12-Week Psilocybin Program

Hosted by Amy Charlesworth

Oregon

Most people who find their way here have already tried the conventional route. Therapy, medication, maybe both for years. The weight hasn't lifted. This is a 12-week psilocybin program built around one idea: real change takes more than a single day. It includes five weeks of virtual preparation, a journey day in Portland, and six weeks of integration to make sure what surfaces actually sticks. Preparation includes four one-on-one video sessions covering intention-setting, health screening, and psychedelic education. You can participate from anywhere. By the time journey day arrives, you'll know what you're walking into and why. The journey is a 6-to-8-hour private session at Immersive Therapies PDX. You and Amy will select your psilocybin strain and dose together based on what came up in preparation. She holds space with breathwork, a sound bath, and Indigenous-inspired practices she's adopted through years of training with elders around the world. Integration is six weekly sessions focused on nervous system regulation, habit change, and translating insight into action. Every client also receives a 93-page workbook with 12 months of prompts and tools. An optional second journey day is available for $1,200 as a three-day format: journey, rest day, journey. Amy welcomes anyone, but she has a special connection to veterans, first responders, and military families because of her own experience as a 16-year military veteran.

Whispers of the Ancestors—A Samhain Women's Retreat of Remembrance, Ancestral Wisdom & Sacred Return

Hosted by Rose Waters Sanctuary

As the wheel of the year turns toward Samhain and the veil between worlds grows thin, we gather as women to remember. Whispers of the Ancestors is a deeply ceremonial retreat created for women who feel called to reconnect with their roots, honor those who came before them, and listen for the wisdom that lives within their bones. Held during the sacred season of Samhain—a time traditionally associated with ancestors, endings, and the mysteries beyond the visible world—this retreat invites participants into a powerful journey of remembrance, healing, and transformation. This retreat is for the woman who feels the call to slow down and listen. The woman standing at a threshold. The woman navigating a life transition, grieving what has been lost, reclaiming forgotten parts of herself, or seeking deeper meaning and connection. Together, we will step into sacred time. We will honor what is ending, celebrate what endures, and open ourselves to the wisdom waiting to emerge from within. As nature enters her season of descent and reflection, we too are invited inward—to the quiet places where truth speaks softly and the soul remembers its way. Price: $2,900 shared room / $3,400 private room / $3,600 private room with private bath (per person)

All-Inclusive Leadership Development Retreat in Aspen

Hosted by SANCTUM

Colorado

A purpose-built leadership development retreat for senior executives seeking expanded clarity, capacity, and impact, supported by a circle of peers. In ancient Greece, politicians, philosophers, and scientists pilgrimaged to drink the Kykeon, a psychedelic brew at the Temple of Delphi. From this emerged the greatest expansion of human consciousness in history: democracy, philosophy, and the atomic structure of the universe. These were not wellness retreats—they were catalysts for leadership and civilization. At SANCTUM, you will continue this tradition. The retreat uses THE COURAGE METHOD™, a framework that integrates executive coaching, psychotherapy, somatic practice, and nature-based work. You’ll arrive Friday for connection and recalibration with your cohort. On Saturday, you’ll participate in a guided low-dose ceremony with continuous facilitator support. Sunday focuses on integration, strategic clarity, and defining concrete actions to carry forward into your leadership. Groups are intentionally small (up to 12), composed of leaders whose decisions shape organizations, policy, and culture. At SANCTUM, that peer dynamic is central to the experience, not incidental You’ll stay in a private suite at Aspen Meadows Resort on the Aspen Institute campus, with airport transfers included both ways. Skippy Mesirow, SANCTUM’s founder, leads the retreat. Before and after the in-person experience, you’ll complete a self-guided preparation process and receive integration tools, including SANCTUM’s Personal Arete Protocol.

The Medicine Within Women's Retreat

Hosted by Rose Waters Sanctuary

The Medicine Within is a sacred Equinox gathering designed for women who are ready to slow down, return to their center, and remember the unique medicine they carry within them. Held at the threshold of seasonal balance—when day and night meet in equal rhythm—this retreat invites participants into a liminal space of reflection, realignment, and deep inner listening. Within the sanctuary of Rose Waters, women are guided through a carefully held container of ceremony, embodiment, and integration practices that support the unfolding of personal truth. The Equinox becomes both mirror and teacher, inviting each woman to explore the balance within herself: the seen and unseen, the doing and being, the outer expression and inner knowing. The Medicine Within is rooted in the understanding that each woman carries a distinct inner medicine—an expression of essence, purpose, and embodied wisdom that is uniquely hers to offer the world. Rather than prescribing a universal path, this retreat creates space for deep personal discovery through guided experiences, somatic practices, and reflective inquiry. What Participants Will Experience ✧ Equinox Opening Ceremony — a grounding ritual to mark the transition into sacred time, setting intentions and invoking balance, clarity, and inner alignment. ✧ Inner Medicine Exploration — facilitated inquiry and reflective practices designed to help participants identify their unique gifts, patterns, and soul expression. ✧ Somatic Embodiment Practices — gentle movement, breathwork, and body-based awareness practices that support regulation, presence, and deeper connection to inner knowing. ✧ Guided Reflective Circles — group sharing spaces that foster witnessing, connection, and the articulation of lived truth in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. ✧ Restorative Space for Integration — unstructured time for rest, solitude, reflection, and nervous system restoration—honoring that integration often happens in stillness. ✧ Closing Equinox Ritual — a collective closing ceremony that honors what has been revealed, released, and reclaimed, anchoring each woman's unique medicine into her lived path. Price: $2,900 shared room / $3,400 private room / $3,600 private room with private bath (per person)

3 Night Couples Psilocybin Retreat

Hosted by Michelle Harrell

Oregon

A shared psilocybin experience for couples, partners, or close friends, held over three days at a private luxury yurt in Southwest Portland. You'll prepare together, journey side by side at a licensed service center, and have uninterrupted time afterward to process what came up, individually and with each other. The couples format isn't just two people doing the same retreat. Preparation sessions are designed around your relationship and shared intentions. Integration is guided with both perspectives in mind. For many couples, the experience opens conversations that have been difficult to start or easy to avoid. Michelle Harrell facilitates with a focus on creating safety for both participants, and handles transportation to and from the service center so neither of you has to think about logistics on journey day. Note: The listed price of $4,250 covers both participants. Psilocybin mushrooms are purchased separately at the service center on the day of your journey and are not included in the package price.

Mycelia: Women's Psilocybin Group

Hosted by Melinda Halpern

Oregon

A small group psilocybin experience for women in Bend, Oregon. Every Mycelia group is co-facilitated by Melinda Halpern and Lynne Herbert, both licensed psilocybin facilitators and licensed therapists with over 20 years of clinical experience each. Groups are capped at 4 to 6 participants. The format spans several weeks. You'll start with two 90-minute preparation sessions (virtual or in-person depending on the group), then come together for a full-day guided psilocybin journey at Drop Thesis, a licensed service center in Bend. Afterward, two 90-minute integration sessions are spaced a week apart to help you process what came up and carry it forward. Mycelia is built on the idea that group work offers something individual sessions can't: the experience of being witnessed, the perspective of other women navigating their own journeys, and the kind of relational insight that only surfaces when you're held in community. The name comes from mycelium, the hidden network beneath the forest floor that connects and nourishes everything it touches. That's the model here: individual growth held within a supportive, interwoven community.

Bridging the Gap: Becoming the Man You Want to Be

Hosted by Benjamin Dancer

Colorado

When I was younger, I noticed that there was a gap between the father I wanted to be and the father I was. That there was a gap between the husband I wanted to be and the husband I was. I started using psilocybin to bridge that gap, to step into the vision I had for myself. I’ve noticed over the years that this is what my clients want, as well. To show up fully for their kids. For their partners. Years of experience have taught me that psilocybin is a powerful medicine that helps men step into their vision for themselves. A pattern I’ve noticed in my work as a psychedelic facilitator is that most men carry burdens from their past. These burdens can keep us from being present with the ones we love. There is a way forward. A way to let go of the burdens that keep us from being who we are. Psilocybin has been a powerful tool for my clients to understand how their past impacts their present, to unburden what is hindering them, and to find more connection with the ones they love. I designed this package to help men become the father, the lover—the man they want to be. This in an 11 hour package that typically includes 3 weeks of preparation, a 5-7 hour psilocybin journey, and 1 week of integration. The timeframe is customizable to your needs. Additional preparation and integration sessions can be added for $150/session. Preparation and integration can be done in person or on Zoom, depending on your location.

Healing Grief and Loss: A Journey Back to You

Hosted by Sujatha Reddy

Colorado

Grief doesn't move on a timeline. Whether your loss is recent or years old, it has a way of settling into the body and staying there — even when you've done the work to process it on the surface. This is a single-day psilocybin journey designed specifically around grief and loss, held at Sangam Healing Center in Lakewood, Colorado. The 12-hour experience includes three hours of preparation, a 6-to-7-hour guided journey, and three hours of integration, all with Sujatha in a private 1-on-1 setting. Preparation covers intention-setting, health screening, and somatic grounding so you're not walking into the experience cold. Sujatha draws on her training in Ayurveda, trauma-informed psychotherapy, and holotropic breathwork to shape the container around what you're carrying, not a fixed protocol. During the journey, she uses guided meditation, breathwork, somatic healing, and Ayurvedic bodywork alongside the psilocybin session. Integration follows immediately after, focused on making sense of what came up and building a path forward. This experience is for anyone navigating the loss of a family member, friend, or pet — or carrying older grief that hasn't had room to move.

For Athletes Ready to Go as Far Inward as They’ve Gone Outward

Hosted by Scott Burd

Colorado

Most athletes know how to push through physical pain. What stops us is rarely the body. It's the fear that didn't heal when the injury did. The emotional weight that accumulates until one day the legs are fine but something else can't go on. This work is for athletes who know the difference, or are starting to suspect it. Maybe you've recovered physically but haven't fully recovered psychologically. Maybe you're still performing but carrying something underneath that's quietly limiting you. Maybe you've stepped back from sport and are sitting with the identity that got left behind. I've been an athlete my entire life and have pushed myself physically and emotionally hard. I know what it feels like when the body has healed but the mind hasn't caught up. When the trail is the same trail you've ridden a hundred times but something in you won't go there. I know what it's like to sit at mile 73 of a 100-mile ultra race, physically intact but emotionally done, and have to figure out which one is actually true. I've spent over 16 years as a Certified Rolfer working with athletes' bodies. The places where effort gets stored, where old injuries live, where the nervous system holds what the mind has tried to move past. That background is the foundation of how I facilitate. Psilocybin, in the right container, creates space for a conversation to finally happen. A chance to understand whether it's the body, the mind, or the nervous system holding you back and why. A chance for a reset. This experience may be right for you if: - You've recovered from injury physically but your confidence hasn't fully come back - Fear or past trauma is quietly limiting what your body will let you do - You're emotionally or psychologically blocked in ways that are affecting your performance or your relationship with sport - You've stepped back from athletics and are working through the identity that came with it - You want a facilitator who understands the athlete's body and mindset, not just the medicine My approach is non-directive and somatic. I don't impose a framework or an outcome. This is deeply personal work. Not a performance. Not a protocol. A chance to finally go as far inward as you've gone outward.

A Guided Inner Healing Journey

Hosted by Benjamin Dancer

Colorado

A weekend group psilocybin experience at Sangam Healing Center in Lakewood, Colorado, just outside Denver. The format is simple: Friday evening preparation, a full-day guided journey on Saturday, and a Sunday morning integration session. Groups are capped at 8 with at least one licensed facilitator for every four participants. Sangam's approach is trauma-informed and draws on a mix of breathwork, meditation, somatic practice, and Ayurvedic tradition. Friday night isn't optional. It's where the group builds trust, sets intentions, and regulates before the journey. Saturday's six-hour psilocybin session is held with carefully curated music and continuous facilitator support. Sunday closes with guided reflection, journaling, and practical tools for carrying what surfaced into daily life. The retreat is co-facilitated by Benjamin Dancer, a licensed Natural Medicine Facilitator and Colorado-recognized legacy healer, and Sujatha Reddy, a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years in mental health and 30 years in Ayurvedic practice. At $1,000 per person with medicine included, this is the most accessible group experience on the marketplace. Lodging is not included; Lakewood is 15 minutes from downtown Denver with many nearby hotel options.

Private Guided Psilocybin Journey for Relationship Healing, Trauma Patterns & Life Transitions

Hosted by Sacred Healing Journeys

Colorado

This private 1:1 guided psilocybin journey is designed for adults who are seeking a safe, legal, and deeply supported experience in Colorado — especially those navigating relationship challenges, trauma patterns, anxiety, depression, parenting stress, grief, divorce, caregiving fatigue, or a major life transition. Many people come to this work after years of therapy, self-reflection, or trying to “hold it all together,” yet still feeling stuck in old emotional patterns. You may feel that something is ready to shift, but you need a trusted container where your nervous system, heart, and inner wisdom can finally be heard. This experience offers more than a journey day. It is a carefully held process of preparation, ceremony, guided support, and integration. The intention is to help you approach the medicine with clarity and reverence, understand what arises, and bring those insights into your relationships, parenting, emotional patterns, and daily life. Your journey is held at Sacred Healing Journeys, a licensed natural medicine healing center in Louisville, Colorado, and facilitated by Monica Ramunda, MA, LPC, an experienced guide with over 25 years in private practice and more than 30 years in the mental health field. Monica brings more than 25 years of private practice experience and has supported clients through trauma, anxiety, depression, divorce, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, grief, and major life transitions. She brings the wisdom of lived experience — motherhood, midlife, spiritual seeking, and the understanding that healing often asks us to release who we have been so we can become who we are now ready to be. Her approach is also shaped by years spent in South America, where she was deeply influenced by ceremony, nature, ritual, and the understanding that healing is not only psychological — it is emotional, relational, spiritual, and embodied. As a woman over 50, a mother of adult twin daughters, a therapist, and a lifelong student of transformation, Monica brings not only professional training but lived wisdom. She understands the thresholds people face in midlife and beyond — the griefs, endings, awakenings, relationship reckonings, identity shifts, and quiet invitations to become more fully oneself. This experience is especially supportive for people who want a private, intentional, heart-centered process with an experienced mental health professional — someone who can hold both the clinical and the sacred.
