How to Get Started:

Step 1 - Schedule Q&A / Consultation:
This is a time for us to ask questions of each other, begin building trust, and see if psilocybin is right for you.

Step 2 - Intake and Preparation:
We’ll work together to create a plan for your psilocybin journey. This includes, setting intentions, answering any questions you have and filling out some paperwork.

Step 3 - Your Psilocybin Experience:
Once a date is set, we will meet at the Psilocybin Service Center of your choice. The psilocybin will be purchased and consumed at the center. I will accompany you in a safe, private space for the duration of your psilocybin experience.

Step 4 - Follow Up and Integration:
This phase is optional, but highly recommended. The goal here is for you to have a safe place to process your psilocybin experience and be intentional about ongoing growth in your life. After your psilocybin experience, we will work together to help you come away with not only the wisdom collected from your journey but real and actionable items that you can do to effect the change you seek in your life.
