I feel sad that the person I was before this waited so long to do it. I feel 100 pounds lighter, like I've cast away a tremendous amount of negative mental energy that wasn't serving me. It has been one of the most profound, and certainly most rapid, positive changes in my life. JP was great. He's a very calm, non-judgmental, supportive presence. Throughout the prep sessions he said many things that I found myself coming back to throughout the journey. Couldn't have asked for more.

Odyssey private session client, September 2024
My Odyssey therapist was able to guide me safely through one of the most important experiences of my life. I loved experiencing the most difficult emotions of my childhood in a more direct manner. This experience has left me feeling much more "in the moment" in my daily life. I find myself often being moved to tears, not in a depressed sense, but in appreciation and gratitude for my life. I cannot think of anything that could have been done better.
Ethan - Florida, USA
Odyssey private session client, August 2024
I can confidently say it has been a pivotal turning point in my life. I find myself more in touch with my emotions, often moved to tears not by sadness, but by an overwhelming sense of happiness and gratitude. This heightened emotional awareness has brought a sense of lightness, a pervasive happiness that colors my daily life.
This experience, while challenging, was also imbued with a sense of peace, bliss, and a serene calmness that enveloped me in a way I've never felt in my almost 35 years of existence. I experienced an intense feeling of love, a deep connection with my loved ones, and a profound oneness with the world around me.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are psilocybin services?
Psilocybin services in Oregon involve guided sessions facilitated by licensed professionals in a controlled, supportive setting. These sessions are tailored for personal exploration, stress reduction, and the management of depression, offering a complementary approach to traditional treatments.
Are psilocybin services legal in Oregon?
Yes. Under Measure 109, psilocybin services are legal in Oregon and regulated by the Oregon Health Authority. All sessions are conducted by trained, licensed facilitators who comply with strict state guidelines. Participants must be 21 or older.
Do psilocybin services treat depression or other medical conditions?
Psilocybin services are not intended as a substitute for medical or mental health treatment. While promising research indicates that psilocybin may help alleviate symptoms of depression, our services are designed to provide a supportive environment for personal exploration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any medical condition.
What does a psilocybin session involve?
Sessions typically include:
• Preparation: A consultation with your facilitator to discuss intentions and set personalized goals.
• The Experience: A guided session in a serene, controlled setting aimed at fostering introspection and emotional release.
• Integration: Post-session support to help process insights and integrate them into your daily life.
Are psilocybin services safe?
Psilocybin sessions in Oregon are conducted under strict regulatory guidelines by licensed facilitators. While individual responses can vary, our comprehensive preparation and integration processes help ensure a secure and supportive experience. We encourage clients to consult with a healthcare provider if they have specific concerns.
Who can participate in psilocybin services?
Psilocybin services are available to individuals aged 21 and older. Potential participants are encouraged to review their personal health considerations with a trusted medical professional before scheduling a session.
What is the role of preparation and integration?
Preparation sets the stage for a focused session by clarifying intentions, while integration allows you to process and apply the insights gained. Both steps are essential in creating a meaningful, transformative experience that supports depression management and personal growth.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions varies by individual goals. Many studies use one or two psilocybin sessions spaced several weeks apart, but this depends on personal preferences and intentions.
How do psilocybin services differ from therapy?
Psilocybin services provide a structured, supportive environment for the psilocybin experience but are not a replacement for traditional therapy. Facilitators guide you through the session and ensure a safe experience, yet they do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions. Our services are designed to complement your broader mental health journey.
