Psychedelic Processing Group
Processing experiences and insights gained from the use of psychedelic substances can be an impactful part of integration. Psychedelic processing groups led by trained psychedelic-assisted psychotherapists can offer a safe and supportive environment for participants to explore and integrate their experiences.
The aim of a psychedelic processing group is to help individuals gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. Participants may share their experiences with others, discuss insights gained from their psychedelic experiences, and receive support and guidance from the group and psychedelic psychotherapists.
Psychedelics can provide transformation and breakthroughs for patients suffering from treatment-resistant depression, addiction, trauma, lack of motivation, loss of creativity, and other mental health issues.
Some clients prefer to attend a psychedelic retreat guided by a trained therapist and then engage with a psychedelic processing group after completing the retreat.

Overview Psychedelic Processing Group
Psychedelic processing group focuses on integrating the insights, experiences, and lessons gained from psychedelic experiences into one's daily life through a group process with other individuals who have had psychedelic experiences. It is typically used as a follow-up to psychedelic-assisted therapy, but can also be used as standalone therapy for individuals who have had psychedelic experiences outside of a therapeutic context (i.e., Burning Man, Coachella, other festivals, recreationally with friends, etc.).
The goal of a psychedelic processing group is to help individuals make sense of their psychedelic experiences and integrate the insights and lessons learned into their everyday lives. This can involve exploring feelings of awe, transcendence, and connectedness that may have been experienced during the psychedelic experience, as well as any challenging or difficult emotions and experiences that may have surfaced.
Our psychedelic processing group is facilitated by a certified psychedelic therapist and may involve mindfulness or meditation, creative expression, or other techniques to help integrate the experience. The group processing may also involve discussing any mental health issues or challenges uncovered during the psychedelic experience.
Psychedelic processing groups are gaining recognition as an important part of the overall psychedelic therapy process, as they can help individuals maintain the positive changes and insights gained from the psychedelic experience over the long term. It is important to note that psychedelic integration therapy should only be conducted by a trained and certified therapist who is knowledgeable about psychedelic therapy and its potential risks and benefits.

Greater sense of connection: Psychedelic experiences can also lead to a greater sense of connection to others and the world around us, and integration can help individuals continue to foster those connections in their daily lives.
Improved mental health: Psychedelic experiences have been shown to have potential therapeutic benefits, and integrating those experiences may help individuals improve their mental health and well-being.
Greater creativity: Psychedelic experiences can also enhance creativity, and integration can help individuals continue to tap into that creative potential in their daily lives.
Spiritual growth: Psychedelic experiences can sometimes lead to a sense of spiritual growth, and integration can help individuals continue to explore and develop their spirituality over time.
It's worth noting, however, that integration of recreational psychedelic experiences should be approached with caution, and it is important to seek guidance from a trained and qualified psychedelic therapist who is knowledgeable about the risks and benefits of such substances.
