I have thoroughly enjoyed my Fluence training. I appreciate the high-level skill of the instructors, the small group format, and the very effective learning platform. I’m appreciative of the relationships I’m making in my cohort. It’s developing into a very supportive environment as we learn the ins and outs of psilocybin facilitation in Oregon.

Although the class curricula required more time and work than I initially anticipated, I feel as though I am now well educated on the subject and prepared to conduct comprehensive preparation, administration, and integration psilocybin assisted therapy sessions in regulatory compliance with the Oregon Psilocybin Services Act.

Fluence is providing a science-informed, cohort-learning experience that forces us to think deeply about the history and issues underlying service delivery as well as to learn how-to skills. Our group is supportive of one another and will be a resource moving forward. I’m now more confident in creating role clarity between my mental health provider license and my facilitation work due to Fluence’s guidance.
