Satya Therapeutics News
Our Story: Experience, Access & Advocacy
Explore Satya Therapeutics news, independent reporting, and company updates from our licensed psilocybin service center in Ashland, Oregon.
Since Oregon’s psilocybin program began, Satya Therapeutics has worked to make legal, supported psilocybin experiences available in Southern Oregon. Our purpose is straightforward: bring together experienced facilitators, a welcoming setting, and affordable services so that cost does not place this experience beyond reach.
The reporting and announcements below follow that work—from our first licenses in 2023 to the clients we serve today and our efforts to protect access across Oregon.
Experience Built from the Beginning
Satya received its psilocybin manufacturing license in March 2023 and opened Southern Oregon’s first licensed psilocybin service center that July. Our Ashland center welcomes people from the Rogue Valley and across the country for preparation, supported psilocybin sessions, and integration.
Our perspective comes from daily involvement in the work. We cultivate psilocybin mushrooms at our separate Jackson County manufacturing facility and host sessions at our Ashland service center. Co-founder Andreas Met also serves as a licensed facilitator, bringing direct client experience to decisions about how Satya operates.
A Commitment to Affordable Access
Growing our own psilocybin helps us manage product costs and supports our commitment to affordable services. Our all-inclusive programs bring together preparation, the administration session, psilocybin, and integration, with options that vary by facilitator and room.
For someone considering a session, clear pricing matters. We want you to understand the full cost, meet potential facilitators, and choose the support that fits your needs.
Speaking Up for Clients and the Program
Our commitment to access also guides our public work. Satya has participated in discussions about Oregon’s potency standards and advocated for rules informed by the practical experience of service centers and facilitators.
In 2026, Andreas Met and the Psilocybin Alliance joined other operators and advocates in opposing proposed license-fee increases. That work included seeking financial records and contributing to public comment. OHA subsequently withdrew the proposed increases.
We continue to advocate for a program that clients can afford and experienced providers can sustain.
