Psilocybin Mushroom Facilitator Practicum & Consultation
Psilocybin Mushroom Facilitator Training: Practicum
The purpose of Elemental’s practicum is to provide students supervised practice opportunities to experience, observe, and/or co-facilitate natural medicines sessions in a safe and supportive learning environment. Supervised practice is designed to support students’ integration of knowledge, values, skills, and practice behaviors within the framework of safe and ethical natural medicine facilitation within students’ scope of anticipated licensure.
Elemental’s supervised practice opportunities will be completed in-person at five single-day intensives, for a total of 30 hours of in-person practicum focused on administration sessions. Each daylong intensive provides 6 hours of practice as a co-facilitator or an opportunity for self-administration. Note that up to 10 hours of practicum can include self-administration of natural medicine. The remaining 10 hours of practicum will be completed virtually with a practicum supervisor. Virtual practicum sessions will include supervised practice of preparation and integration sessions and case consultation. All in-person components of practicum take place at Reflective Healing (healing center license pending) in Fort Collins, CO.
For updates about practicum and consultation opportunities with Elemental, tell us a little about yourself by joining the interest list. Practicum and consultation will begin once regulated natural medicine is available in Colorado (expected spring 2025).
Psilocybin Mushroom Facilitator Training
Consultation
Elemental offers trainees the opportunity for ongoing individual or group supervision and consultation as part of ensuring ongoing professional competence and mushroom facilitator trainee licensure requirements. Colorado requires persons who have completed their 150 educational hours to apply for a training license and complete a minimum of 50 hours of consultation before full licensure is granted. Elemental offers virtual professional consultation for both clinical professionals and wellness practitioners as an optional addition to the facilitator training program.
Virtual consultation groups will be offered weekly starting in April/May 2025 with up to 10 trainees per group. Individual consultation is also available at an hourly rate.
By joining a consultation group with Elemental, you can be sure that you are working with qualified consultants with the education, experience, and ethics to best support you in deepening your skills and connecting to a community of learners.
Consultation includes discussion of ethical issues that arise in licensees’ work as facilitators and structured evaluation addressing the following competencies: non-directive approach, relational boundaries and use of touch, cultural competence, non-ordinary states of consciousness, self-care, and ethics. Documentation of consultation hours and activities will be provided to trainees to fulfill the requirements of full licensure.
