Working with Psilocybin: A Trauma-Informed Masterclass

Designed for psilocybin facilitators, psychedelic practitioners, therapists and retreat support teams who want to strengthen their ability to recognise trauma-related responses and support participants through challenging experiences with greater trauma awareness and care.

Why this Masterclass? 

Psilocybin can bring deeply held emotional material and trauma-related responses into awareness.

Responsible psilocybin facilitation calls for an understanding of trauma, the ability to recognise signs of distress, and the skills to support participants through challenging experiences with appropriate care.

This masterclass explores psilocybin work through a trauma-informed lens, offering practical approaches to recognising trauma imprints and responding to what emerges during a session.

Develop a more grounded understanding of the responsibilities involved in psilocybin facilitation and how trauma-informed principles can inform your approach to participant support.
