A Meaningful Reset for Life’s Next Chapter

About this experience

Our intimate group psilocybin retreats are designed for individuals seeking clarity, healing, and meaningful transformation while navigating a major life transition. Limited to just 9–10 participants, these retreats offer the rare opportunity to step away from daily responsibilities and immerse yourself in a supportive environment where reflection, connection, and healing can unfold. Through guided preparation, a legal psilocybin journey in Oregon, and intentional integration, participants are invited to: - Release old stories, grief, and emotional burdens - Gain perspective on what is ending and what is emerging - Reconnect with purpose, values, and inner wisdom - Build resilience and emotional clarity - Experience the healing power of community While each person’s journey is deeply personal, there is something profoundly reassuring about being surrounded by others asking similar questions about identity, purpose, and what comes next.

Your guide

Mary Jo SoRelle

Mary Jo began her career in the medical field at the age of 16 and later earned her cosmetology license, shaping beauty while holding the tender moments people don’t always say out loud. Over the past 15 years, her salon chair became more than a place for outward transformation; it evolved into a sanctuary. A space where laughter, grief, confessions, and breakthroughs were met with presence, gentleness, and care. Mary Jo’s own healing journey with childhood trauma and her deep curiosity about human psychology, emotional well-being, consciousness, and the larger questions of our reality drew her toward the healing and wellness field. This calling ultimately led her to complete Oregon State Psilocybin Facilitator training through the Clinical Cognitive Training Center. Raised by a parent struggling with addiction and navigating sexual trauma beginning at a young age, Mary Jo has devoted much of her personal healing work to self-parenting, tending the mother–daughter wound, sexual liberation, and unlearning patterns of self-abandonment. Psilocybin has played a meaningful and profound role in reshaping her relationship to trauma and in cultivating deeper connection—to herself, to the earth, and to the collective—reinforcing her belief that healing wisdom already lives within each of us. Mary Jo is especially passionate about supporting healing from sexual trauma, personal development, creative expansion, and end-of-life journeys.
