Scott Burd

Scott Burd is a respectful facilitator. He respects the medicine. He respects people. He understands that the people who choose to work with him on part of their journey must lead in the most significant aspects of that journey. Scott understands that his role is not to teach a person what they need to do nor to do anything to them - beyond help them plan and experience a safe encounter with the medicine. I met Scott last year when I decided to embark on a psilocybin journey, ten years after retiring from a career as a local government attorney and more than fifty years after my last personal experiment with a psychedelic substance. Scott is qualified and licensed by the State of Colorado to offer a range of options for a psilocybin journey. Based on my personal experience I consider Scott Burd to be a trustworthy, competent and valuable guide to the exploration of the personal growth and healing accessible through psilocybin medicine. More than 50 years ago, I heard Dr. David E. Smith, the founder and then Medical Director of the Haight-Ashbury Free Clinics, speak on his vision for the potential future of psychedelic medicine. I considered Dr. Smith's vision to be foresighted, compassionate and realistic then and now. I believe Scott Burd shares that vision.

I had an excellent experience working with Scott as my facilitator for psilocybin-guided therapy. He approaches his work with genuine professionalism, compassion, and care. From preparation through the session itself, his presence helped me feel comfortable, safe, and well supported. I would strongly recommend Scott to anyone considering psilocybin-guided therapy. You couldn't ask for a better guide.

Scott, through his psychedelic therapy work, has helped me work through deeply engrained personal challenges and emotions that have haunted me for years and lead to bad habits. I have overcome these known and unconscious demons and have revived my life with a new mindset and "heart-set" that has eliminated negative habits and directed me on a path of life appreciation, joy and internal clarity.

I recently had the opportunity to experience my first psilocybin journey with Scott as my facilitator. The decision to journey was made with a lot of consideration and some nervousness on my part. It turned out to be life changing in such a positive way! This would not have been possible without Scott's knowledge, compassion, and guidance. He was able to answer all my questions and gently guide me to examine my goals and motivation. I am so grateful to him for being exactly who I needed to feel comfortable and confident before, during, and after the process. His dedication to helping others experience healing is an obvious passion for him. I can whole heartedly recommend!
