Psychedelic Therapy Training in Australia: What You Need to Know

Psychedelic Therapy Panel at Byron Community Centre

What Our Graduates Say

"Loved the relaxed learning style that allowed participants various expertise to also enrich the experience. It was a rich, supportive learning experience. The ratio of trainers to trainees was wonderful and they each brought themselves to the room."

- Sue Coonan, Clinical Psychologist
“What I appreciated the most was that you continually referred to evidence-based research highlighting both treatment efficacy, limitations and gaps in knowledge. The real therapy work is post dosing and in the integration process where the client interprets the learnings they experienced whilst in an altered state of consciousness.”

- Mark Mergalla, Mental Health Accredited Social Worker
"All of the facilitators were so welcoming and down-to-earth. Thank you for encouraging me to come out of my shell. This course has further confirmed that this is the field that I hope will be the next step in my career."

Coreena Jackson, Psychologist
