I’m so grateful for my experience at Satya. The whole team truly does their best and meets you exactly where you are, with so much care and respect. Andreas has created a center that feels safe, thoughtful, and deeply human. Meixa, my facilitator, guided me with patience, warmth, and presence. I also want to give special thanks to Robert Allen. Our interactions were brief, but they were so thoughtful and meaningful that they stayed with me. I couldn’t have asked for better people to share this experience with, and I’d recommend Satya to anyone.

I highly recommend taking this journey into healing. I will be forever grateful for this experience.

My wife and I had psilocybin journeys with Bonny as the facilitator. Both experiences were outstanding and we attribute much of that to the way Bonny handled the prep, journey, and post-journey facilitation. Her calm and compassionate demeanor relaxed us and soothed any anxiousness. High regard and strong recommendation for Bonny. The Satya Therapeutics facility was outstanding! The therapy rooms were well-appointed and very comfortable with good access to restrooms. All staff we encountered were extremely professional and efficient. Overall, I felt the operation was 5 star+. Tom M

I am still just so infinitely grateful for two sessions I had with Aubrey. I am less anxious, I am more self-loving and I was able to actually let go of some internalized shame residual of coming out of the closet in an itlaian-mormon family years ago. Aubrey is so intelligent and is always focused on her own learning and she was able to tease apart complex anthropological layers of shame with me and being part of three groups of humans who don't like each other since birth (italians, mormons and gays). I left behind so much internalized shame and greater awareness in such a safe and caring space she created with her wisdom, compassion and intellect. Some things I've been holding onto for decades I got to leave behind in one of the treatment rooms and I am just beyond grateful for her incredible role in my healing and my journey. I highly recommend her facilitated sessions.

I cannot express the caring and compassion! Andreas and his wife Jennifer responded to me immediately. I was able to select an excellent facilitator. Dabney was extremely knowledgeable compassionate. She made me feel so comfortable and trusting. It was by far a game changer for me. I have struggled my entire 64 years of my life with depression and PTSD. I highly highly recommend Satya and Dabney!! If I ever feel a new to repeat my treatment this will be my place and person! Thank you Satya and Dabney!! You make a difference!! 🫶

My earliest childhood memories are full of carefree love and adoration for my family and surroundings, a life quickly extinguished by the tragic murder of my older brother when I was four. That loss imprinted itself deep in my body and mind. For the last 16 years of adulthood I’ve been committed to healing: retreats, DBT, EMDR, pharmaceuticals, somatic therapies, nutrition, exercise, and faith. Each offered some relief from depression, anxiety, and mood disorders, but none reached the core. I discovered Satya Therapeutics through a friend who said, “If I did psilocybin therapy in Oregon, I’d go to Ashland—that town has the vibe.” I reached out and was connected to Bern. His compassionate presence put me at ease. Within a week I was on a flight from Texas to Oregon. My first session was epic—a Lord of the Rings-like pilgrimage through my life—bringing deep forgiveness, a shift from victim to strong and courageous, and a heavenly vision of the eternal spiritual realm alongside this physical life, with no more fear of living or death. After months of integration, a second session with Bern and Meixa was miraculous. I deeply remembered my brother and the significance of his loss, releasing decades of grief lodged in my body through waves of anguish, gently but firmly guided by them both. Coming out felt like a dam of love and wholeness had broken open—the love I hadn’t felt since before his death. Everyone close to me noticed the change. I went surfing that weekend with newfound soul; my longtime partner said he hadn’t seen me surf like that before. The barrier of pain between the loss and life dissolved. Remarkably, after this journey I became free from depending on all three of my depression and anxiety prescriptions. A third session focused on deeper childhood family wounds. It felt gentler and more tender, with a fairy-tale quality of color, sound, and somatic release. With Bern and Meixa’s holding I released long-stored pain and, for the first time in that context, felt warm, unconditional love, self-forgiveness, and wholeness. A fourth session with Meixa met present-day pain in a healthy, wholesome, but raw way—divorce, friendships that needed healing and acceptance, my mother, and generations of family dysfunction. I processed the end of a 23-year marriage with unconditional love, gratitude, and acceptance, and could meet certain friendships with the same clarity: love what was true, release what could not meet this season. It opened a deeper unconditional love for my mom. I saw the pain she walked through and how that suffering had shaped our relationship. Shortly after, I was able to walk through her final days with pure love and appreciation for who she truly was, “never too late for God,” with the grateful completion rather than unfinished pain. It also opened my eyes to generations of family brokenness. Healing those places let me accept what isn’t perfect about my family today while beginning to heal those same patterns in me. Hope rose as I accepted the grief of loss in a real way. I could embrace the pain and move through it rather than let it bury me. What remained was inner strength heading into the next chapter, with love and gratitude holding my heart. One month into integration I feel lighter, more present, and more open—to my faith, my purpose, my family, and relationships built on love and trust rather than performance or gain. The chronic weight of hopelessness and decades of struggle has lifted. Fifteen months with Bern, Meixa, and Satya has accomplished more healing than 40+ years of seeking a path of serenity and healing for what was lost. They've created a safe, skilled, sacred space. If you’re searching for compassionate, experienced guides for this work, Satya is the real deal. Highly recommended! P.S. If you’re coming from afar, Southern Oregon has some majestic places to see and explore around the work—Crater Lake among them. The land holds you the same way they do.

I can’t say enough good things about Satya. I went for psilocybin treatment and it was truly amazing. My guide Bonnie was awesome—she made me feel safe and supported both times I visited. The first session helped me so much that I was able to get off my depression medication. A year later, I returned to work on my anxiety, and I’ve been so much better since. The place, the people, and the care I received made a real difference in my life. Highly recommend. Ashland Oregon is just beautiful. It was a great place to clear my mind and heal.
