Legal psilocybin therapy for founders and senior leaders
Some people run companies well and feel almost nothing running their own lives. If that sounds familiar, this page is written for you, not for your company.
What I usually hear
People in this position often tell me some version of: I am good at this, everyone thinks I have it together, and I do not remember the last time I felt anything besides low-grade dread.
Many cannot say this to their board, their co-founder, or even their spouse. There is a real cost to admitting you are struggling when your identity, your employees' livelihoods, and the company's story about itself are all bound up in you looking fine.
A lot of it isn't burnout in the simple sense. It is that the company became the self somewhere along the way, and now it is hard to tell where one ends and the other begins.
What tends to arise in this work
People in high-control roles often meet, in a medicine session, how much of their life has been organized around not feeling certain things. Grief, fear of failure, loneliness at the top — these tend to surface, and they are usually older than the company.
It is common to come out of a session less certain about decisions you had treated as settled — about the business, about a marriage, about what you actually want. That is not a side effect I can promise away.
This is not a performance-enhancement tool, and I do not frame it as one. What the evidence does and does not show.
How I adapt the arc
This is individual work, not a corporate offering. I do not run team offsites, group corporate packages, or anything designed for a company as a client. If your employer is arranging or paying for this, I will not participate — I work with you, not with an organization about you.
Nothing goes back to your employer. I do not report to a board, an HR department, or anyone else about your sessions, your reasons for being here, or what happens in them. What we do together is between us.
Scheduling respects what your calendar actually allows. Sessions need real, cleared days, not days you'll be checking email between. We plan around what you can genuinely protect.
Integration deals with the actual job, not just the mind state. If part of what surfaces is that the role or the company needs to change, that's part of the conversation, not something outside its scope. Program structure and cost.
Honest limits
If you cannot actually clear the days a medicine session and real integration require, I will say so plainly. A session squeezed between meetings, with your phone in the next room, is not a session I want to do.
I will not help you tolerate a job that is actively harming you and call it healed. If the plan is to fix burnout while changing nothing about the hours, the role, or the pressure producing it, this will not hold for long, and I'll tell you that directly.
I do not sell corporate wellness packages, and I won't take on a client at an employer's request or on an employer's behalf. If that's what you're looking for, I'm not the right person.
Active mania, unmanaged psychosis, certain cardiac conditions, and some medications rule this out regardless of your role or schedule.
If you want to talk it through
The first conversation is free, and it does not commit you to anything. If you are not ready, I will say so, and you can come back later or not at all.
Coming from out of state?
Traveling in for a session takes planning around your calendar, not around a sales pitch. It covers timing, flights, altitude, lodging near the healing centers, medication review, total costs, and what the days before and after actually look like.
