Consent is not something we simply “get” at the be Consent is not something we simply “get” at the beginning of a psychedelic session. 🌿 It is something we keep listening for. In altered states, a participant may feel deeply open, trusting, attached or unsure of what they need. Trauma adaptations can also shape how consent appears from the outside: fawning may look like agreement, dissociation may look like surrender, and hypoarousal may look like calmness. This asks more of us as facilitators. ✨ To notice power, not only intention. ✨ To recognise when someone is complying rather than choosing. ✨ To keep consent ongoing, specific and able to change. ✨ To stay curious about whether the person still has access to their own agency. ✨ To understand that relationship, attachment and nervous system state are all part of the ethical field. The deeper question is not only: “Did they say yes?” It is also: “Could they still feel themselves while saying it?” These are the kinds of conversations we hold inside the 9-Month Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator Mentorship — a space for practitioners to bring real cases, deepen trauma-informed and relationship-centred practice, and receive supervision around the complexity that emerges in this work. 🤍 Comment MENTORSHIP if you’d like more information. #PsychedelicTherapy #TraumaInformedCare #SomaticTherapy #EthicalPractice #PsychedelicFacilitation
✨ LAST CHANCE TO REGISTER ✨ TOMORROW, WE BEGIN. 🤍 ✨ LAST CHANCE TO REGISTER ✨ TOMORROW, WE BEGIN. 🤍 The 9-MONTH SOMATIC PSYCHEDELIC FACILITATOR MENTORSHIP is about to start — and registrations are now in their final hours. This is for practitioners who want to deepen not only what they know, but HOW THEY SHOW UP in this work. 🌿 Over nine months, we’ll explore trauma-informed psychedelic facilitation, somatics, nervous system work, developmental trauma, relational skill, integration, ethics, power, boundaries and the deeper inner work required to become a more trustworthy practitioner. 🌀 If you’ve been feeling the call to deepen your capacity, meet complexity with more confidence and discernment, and learn within a community of reflection, supervision and practice — this is your FINAL INVITATION. ✨ Comment MENTORSHIP and I’ll send you the details.

A participant developing feelings for you is not p A participant developing feelings for you is not permission. Not permission to blur the role. Not permission to flirt back. Not permission to turn attachment into intimacy. Not permission to tell yourself that “the connection is mutual” and therefore ethical. In psychedelic work, attachment can intensify fast. Gratitude can feel like love. Vulnerability can feel like intimacy. A participant may feel profoundly seen, deeply bonded, erotically activated or emotionally dependent. That does not make the power differential disappear. If anything, it increases your responsibility. The facilitator holds the role, the frame, the boundaries, and often the meaning-making authority around the experience. The participant should not have to manage the practitioner’s desires, ambiguity or unmet needs. This is where transference, attachment, erotic charge and countertransference need to be understood professionally, not romanticised. And if you notice that you are enjoying being idealised, wanting to be chosen, feeling unusually special, or beginning to justify an exception, that is not a sign to “follow the energy”. That is a sign to slow down, seek supervision and protect the relationship. Because ethical facilitation is not proven when things are simple. It is proven when power, attraction, attachment and vulnerability are in the room — and you still hold the boundary. Inside the 9-Month Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator Mentorship, we work with exactly these kinds of relational complexities through supervision, case consultation and trauma-informed practice. Comment MENTORSHIP if you want the details. 🌿 #PsychedelicFacilitation #TraumaInformedCare #EthicalPractice #SomaticTherapy #PsychedelicTherapy
As a psychedelic practitioner, have you ever finis As a psychedelic practitioner, have you ever finished a session and wondered: Did I handle that well? What was really happening for my client? What would I do differently next time? Or found yourself with a client whose trauma, relational patterns or psychological complexity went far beyond what you expected, and you did not know what to do? These are the moments when intellectual training alone may not be enough. Because complex work requires support. Supervision gives us somewhere to bring the cases that challenge us. Mentorship helps us develop the discernment to know what we're seeing and how to respond. A deeper understanding of complex trauma equips us to respond with greater skill and care when a client's experience becomes more complex. This is why Atira and I are passionate about the Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator Advanced Mentorship Program, starting on the 7th of October. We believe that being a committed psychedelic practitioner means having the humility to keep learning, the courage to ask questions, and the support to not have to figure everything out alone. The Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator Mentorship is a space where you can bring the cases that challenge you, ask the questions you're not sure how to ask, explore what you could have done differently, and learn alongside practitioners who care deeply about doing this work well. A space where curiosity is valued over certainty, and learning matters more than getting everything right. Over nine months, we'll create a space to bring your real cases, questions and uncertainties; to deepen your understanding of complex trauma; and to refine how you work with what emerges in psychedelic states. You don't have to figure it all out alone. If you want experienced mentorship and supportive learning alongside you as you continue developing your practice, we'd love to have you with us. Last Chance to Register: Closes on the 7th of October. Spaces still available: Affordable Payment Plans available.
