Oregon made history as the very first state to legalize and regulate psilocybin facilitation. This groundbreaking step opened the door to a new field of psychedelic healing and created the need for well-trained professionals who can guide clients with safety, skill, and compassion.
At the Entheogen Institute, we are proud to be licensed by the Oregon Higher Education Coordinating Commission (HECC) and approved by the Oregon Psilocybin Services (OPS) to train facilitators for state licensure. Our program blends rigorous education with ethics, cultural respect, and personal development, preparing you to enter this profession with confidence.
Our curriculum is designed to create safe, responsible, and effective facilitators. We weave Internal Family Systems, ethics, and the non-directive approach into every stage of training, so these principles are not just covered once, but practiced continuously. This ensures that by the time you graduate, they are part of how you naturally show up with clients.
Our program uses a circular model that allows you to start when you are ready. Instead of waiting months for a new cohort to launch, you can step in at the next available module and move forward with a group of peers. You can begin your training as soon as next week.
EI Is proud to host a lineup of incredible guest instructors. These include specialists in neuroscience, trauma, cultural humility, and integration practices. Each instructor brings their own expertise, which adds depth and dimension to your learning experience. Students often tell us that the variety of voices and perspectives was one of the highlights of the training.
