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.

Benjamin's presence and calm clarity set a stage for understanding of my "self" AND deep connection with my partner. His process is intentional, well-engineered and deliberate, but there's plenty of room for exploration and for flow. It's efficient but not rushed, thorough but not repetitive. I judge the preparation, journey, and integration were all equally valuable. Benjamin teaches how to "unblend" from parts of us that initially formed to protect us but now can get in the way of who we want to be. And it was wonderful to go through this experience with my wife. We now have the ability to facilitate each other, leading to more compassion and curiosity, and deeper understanding and connection. Before this experience, I was aware of some of the trauma my wife had faced but now I can truly "feel" what she has been through and understand her on levels I wouldn't have thought possible before our work with Benjamin. He's a magician and I can't recommend him enough.

We wanted to share our experience working with Benjamin as our guide. From the very beginning, he stood out for his authenticity and presence. He brought a level of kindness, thoughtfulness, and patience that immediately put us at ease. As first-time participants in psychedelic therapy traveling in from out of state there was some anxiety and uncertainty going into the process. He met that with a calm, grounded confidence and a thoroughness that helped us build real trust. During the preparation phase, he took the time to understand us individually and together. Nothing felt rushed or formulaic. He asked the right questions, created space for reflection, and helped us feel genuinely ready for the experience ahead. The journey itself was incredible, and a big part of that was the environment he created. We felt safe, supported, and able to fully lean into the experience. His presence was steady and intuitive throughout — never intrusive, but always exactly where it needed to be. What has stood out just as much, if not more, has been the post-integration support. He has continued to show up with the same level of care and attention, helping us process and apply what we experienced in a meaningful way. We chose to add several additional sessions because we found his guidance so valuable during this phase. Looking back, it's clear that the depth and quality of our experience were directly tied to the trust and comfort he established with us. He was exceptional at every step of the process, and we're deeply grateful for the role he played in this journey. We would highly recommend him to anyone considering this kind of work.

Throughout the entire process from the first phone call to the last session I did with him, Benjamin was fantastic. There is no doubt he genuinely cares about others, empathizes with their situation, and wants to do anything he can to help. He helps guide you along the journey with compassion at a pace that is appropriate and set by you. From my time with him I learned quite a bit and it has been the catalyst for my continued search for knowledge and growth internally and with how I interact with the outside world. I made significant progress towards my goals in essentially a short 2 month period with him and I have continued to maintain that progress and grow now about 4 months later. If it wasn't for me living out of state I would still be working with him. He was extremely accommodating in making everything work. I would absolutely embark on another journey with him should the need arise in the future. If you are considering psychedelic therapy, have an initial phone call and see if it's right for you. Benjamin would be an excellent guide on your journey should you decide to pursue it. Without having embarked on my journey I feel I would have been stuck in the same spot I had been for so long and I thank Benjamin helping me along the way.
