The structure of a guided psilocybin session<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

After the preparatory phase and before the integration phase of a psilocybin therapy program, the psilocybin session takes place under supervision. This session begins with an introductory conversation in which the therapist explains the structure of the day and sets intentions. After this initial conversation, which lasts approximately 45 minutes, the psilocybin is taken in the form of magic truffles. It usually takes another 15 to 30 minutes for the first effects to be noticeable. As soon as conversation becomes difficult, we move on to the introspective phase. After the peak has passed, conversation gradually resumes, and you can actively work on your goals together with the therapist.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What is the role of guidance with psilocybin?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The supervisor present has various tasks during the psilocybin session<\/a>. The primary task is to keep the client safe and assist with any necessary support. The secondary task is to help achieve goals by utilizing their therapeutic knowledge and skills. A good therapist will manage part of the peak effects, allow the peak to unfold as it happens, and then focus on personal growth after the peak.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Is a trained psychologist or therapist better?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

For some of our clients, a trained therapist with a background in mental health can be a significant advantage. Psilocybin blends well with conventional therapies like psychotherapy. The beauty of psilocybin is that at higher doses, the healing clients report doesn't come from the conversations, but from the spiritual peak experience. The latter can also, or sometimes even better, be achieved without a trained mental health therapist. Furthermore, psilocybin acts as an anti-inflammatory in the brain, and you don't need a psychologist for that potential antidepressant effect.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

However, having a trained therapist on hand can be more helpful than someone who simply provides physical safety, such as a trip sitter. Processing emotions and influencing behavior can become smoother and more effective thanks to a therapist. Furthermore, trusting someone's academic background can create a more peaceful experience during the session, leading to a deeper journey and better results. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Do you choose a psychologist or an expert by experience?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We have several guides to choose from for a guided psilocybin trip. For psilocybin sessions, we believe experience is more important than education. With MDMA, this is different, as an MDMA session focuses more on talk therapy. With guided psilocybin, feeling safe with your guide is paramount. If education is a factor, choose an experienced therapist.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
