Course Description

Psychedelic Therapy Training is a program that teaches mental health professionals how to safely and effectively use psychedelic substances in conjunction with psychotherapy. The program is based on the Psychedelic Somatic Interactional (PSI) model, which integrates somatic psychology, trauma theory, neuroscience, and pharmacology.

The program consists of three levels: Level 1 (Foundations), Level 2 (Advanced Skills), and Level 3 (Supervision). Upon completion of the program, participants will be able to conduct psychedelic-assisted therapy sessions with clients who suffer from various mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, and existential distress.

The course offers a psychedelic training program through which mental health professionals can provide fully legal psychedelic therapy to their clients in their private practice. PSI developed a psychedelic-specific therapy modality, Psychedelic Somatic Interactional Psychotherapy (PSIP), that uncovers and amplifies the psychedelic properties of easily accessible, legal substances such as cannabis and ketamine.

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.
