What we’re about
This is a meetup group designed for current and aspiring Psychedelic Assisted Therapists and/or psychedelic facilitators/guides.
The psychedelic medicines that are legal in Colorado (namely THC, Psilocybin, DMT, Iboga, Mescaline, and Ketamine) represent a profound opportunity for expanding accessibility of mental health practices for the population of Colorado. However, the training required to optimize the impact of these medicines (and minimize risks) can be prohibitively expensive and inaccessible for some.
The Psychedelic Practitioners Cohort was developed to expand the accessibility and affordability of training for Psychedelic Assisted Therapy and Psychedelic Facilitation. The Cohort is peer-led, meaning every member of the cohort can propose and host an event or training (organizer screening required) and our longer retreats generally include space for each participant to present.
Meetups will be a mix of virtual and in-person and will not only focus on psychedelics, but also on trauma-informed therapy, harm reduction, equity of access and other important aspects of Psychedelic Assisted Therapy and/or facilitating psychedelic experiences.
