Course Description

The Numinus Certification Pathway is an extensive and accessible program tailored for diverse professionals seeking to provide psychedelic-assisted therapy services. This comprehensive training journey culminates in full, accredited certification, offering a clear pathway to becoming a Certified Psychedelic Provider.

The program is designed to cultivate expertise, legitimacy, and community support through best-in-class instructional methods. Participants will develop core psychedelic-assisted therapy skills via multi-modal teaching approaches, including interactive evidence and theory reviews, audio-visual design, case-based learning, experiential learning, and in-person shadowing opportunities.

The curriculum begins with an “Introduction to Psychedelics,” an 8-hour recorded and reading-based asynchronous distance learning course available for free. Following this introductory course, participants can enroll in the “Fundamentals of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy,” a 10-week blended course combining live synchronous and asynchronous distance learning for $2699 USD plus tax. This is followed by “Applied Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: Cases, Conditions & Context,” a 6-week blended learning course for $1250 USD plus tax.

Participants can then choose their specialization pathway: Ketamine-Assisted Therapy, Psilocybin-Assisted Therapy, or MDMA-Assisted Therapy. Each specialization begins with a 4-hour “Molecular Foundations” course, priced at $100 USD plus tax, followed by “Practical Applications,” a 50-60 hour blended learning course combining in-person experiential learning and asynchronous distance learning for $3999 CAD plus tax.

Upon completion of the required courses, participants will receive certification in their chosen specialization, ensuring they are equipped with the necessary skills to deliver high-quality care. The Numinus Certification Pathway provides a credible and structured route to practice, supported by highly experienced instructors, accredited programs, and a strong emphasis on experiential learning opportunities. This program is designed to integrate cultural safety and humility, offering flexible scheduling options to accommodate the diverse needs of both regulated and non-regulated providers.

About Instructor

Tatayo (“Fruit of the Wind”) first arrived in Gabon in 1971 at the age of 21 and became a Gabonese citizen. In 1979, he became the first white person to be initiated into the Bwiti Fang tradition in Gabon. In 1994, he was initiated into the Misokko tradition. As a guide for numerous expeditions and missions, including those of National Geographic, the BBC, and others, Tatayo is considered to have “opened the door” to westerners in Gabon.
