Meet Oregon’s Most Experienced Psilocybin Facilitation Team

I work with thoughtful, introspective individuals who are seeking healing, clarity, and
meaningful change—often during life transitions, periods of grief, or moments of deep
personal questioning.

Many of the people I support are navigating uncertainty, longing for
greater connection to themselves, or searching for a more purposeful way forward.

My approach to psilocybin facilitation is grounded in emotional safety, ethical care, and deep
respect for your lived experience. I believe this work requires careful preparation, strong
boundaries, and genuine presence. Clients can expect a process that is collaborative,
structured, and tailored to their individual needs.

I bring experience as a former educator and attorney, along with training in Solution-Focused
Brief Therapy and work as an addiction recovery coach. These paths have shaped my ability
to listen deeply, hold complexity with care, and support clients with clarity and discernment.

I am also certified in Heartwork Journaling, a gentle, creative practice that uses simple
drawing and reflection to help process emotions, make meaning of life transitions, and clarify
intentions. Many clients find this especially helpful during preparation and integration, as it
offers a nonverbal and compassionate way to understand their inner experience.

Clients often describe me as calm, attuned, and easy to trust. My intention is to offer a space
where you feel safe, respected, and supported as you explore this work with honesty and
care

I’d first like to acknowledge the Indigenous Elders who have a long history of being in
relationship with plant medicine. Much gratitude and respect to these custodians and to my
own Indigenous teachers.

The template I offer for a sacred mushroom journey is shaped by my own healing journey which
started in 2003 as a way to create balance in my corporate focused life. Through the years I
have studied many different teachings and have had many experiences that led to some
beautiful insights, the greatest of which was from working with sacred medicine.

While I’ve been able to create a broad and deep tool kit to draw from, there are some key influencers for
how I approach a journey:

• My experience with Peruvian shamanic arts greatly influences how I create ceremonial space
for the journey.
• Studying and practicing embodied/somatic inquiry informs my preparation and integration
practices. My primary studies have been with the Leela School, Irene Lyon and Atira Tan.

• My Shipibo plant medicine teacher and my relationship to sacred medicine are instrumental in
how I prepare myself as the facilitator and what I may suggest to those that journey.

• The biggest influencer is the person journeying. They bring their own sacred intelligence into
the mix. My job is to listen at a deep level and be curious about what is most alive for the
client at this time in their life.

As a facilitator, my goal is to provide a safe experience from which insights/realizations can be
harvested and embodied.

I would rather be whole than good. – Carl Jung

Hello! I am so proud to be a part of a growing team of innovative mental health professionals in Southern Oregon, where we Oregon-ize a little differently from our neighbors. Located between Crater Lake, Mount Shasta and the Pacific Ocean, lies the Rogue Valley, the heart of the Wing of the Dove.

My family roots date to 1895 in Ashland Oregon, and I’ve raised my sons to see the beauty of this land that I believe heals.

I’ve been a practicing bodyworker since 2003. My early practice was based in structural and rehabilitation work; the energetic and holistic aspects began to form my practice into what she is today. I was first trained in Reiki in 2004 and have received my Master attunements. Since then, I have been a student of various energy modalities, finally coming full circle to CranioSacral based on the teachings of Dr. John Upledger.

Like many families, ours has been touched by generational wounds and deep scars. As I grew in my therapeutic work, I simultaneously chased my own healing. Nearly twenty years ago, I began working with entheogens as part of a sacrament, where I found amazing benefits that meditation did not offer me. Due to the times and, society, my healing took place “underground”. The evolution of my journey brought me to Peru to work with indigenous plant medicines, after which I came home to Oregon and began the efforts to decriminalize psilocybin for the benefit of others with Measure 109.

Being a facilitator is very much like being a somatic practitioner: I simply hold space for you to experience the medicine. Every journey and journeyer is unique, and I believe in honoring this process. My focus is building a container of trust and space for you. We do this through learning about you, your why, and what brought you to this place and time.

I have seen firsthand the tremendous impact of this medicine being destigmatized and decriminalized. I see how people want to be in alignment with the laws. Most of my clients had their first experience with medicine, their feedback was that it mattered that they were in a safe and good standing. I am also thankful that Ashland, Oregon has long held an open mind about plant medicine. Ashland has been at the leading edge for psychedelics, whether underground as it was before or now.

Come, take a trip to take a trip and we will see you soon.

Facilitation Fee: $850

Susannah Graven – Psilocybin Facilitator | Medford, Oregon

I feel incredibly fortunate that I discovered psilocybin’s healing potential over 30 years ago and have continued to use this medicine for personal growth and self-awareness.

I consider psilocybin a gift that helps us access inner healing by revealing and releasing whatever isn’t serving us and creating new pathways forward. A facilitated journey can provide a deep reset, clear out pain and confusion, and bring back hope and inspiration. I believe it allows us to connect deeply with our true selves underneath the suffering and stress and make the changes we wish to see.  I have worked with psychedelic plant medicines for most of my life and have seen how powerfully these experiences improve people’s lives. My empathetic approach, rooted in bridging indigenous traditions and psychology, allows me to create a sacred healing space where clients can explore their innermost selves.

I am passionate about empowering individuals to unlock their innate healing potential.

I serve my clients by meeting each person where they are at in their life and calibrating to their unique needs. I am a present, warm, loving, and experienced guide, and my role is to prepare and support my clients so they feel well-informed and excited to experience this wondrous journey. I am a founding facilitator at Satya Therapeutics and have guided over 150 clients since becoming licensed. I absolutely love this work and consider it an honor to be part of many people’s transformations and healing.

I am a mother, flower farmer, birth doula, and a psycho-spiritual life coach.  My passion is helping people realize that it is possible to heal and break free from whatever holds them back from living the life they want.  A guided psilocybin journey is a phenomenal experience that brings clarity and strength, and our integration afterward provides steps forward to continue healing.

I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies and am currently in graduate school at CIIS to become a licensed trauma-informed psychotherapist.

I work on a sliding scale where you (the client) pay me according to what you believe the service is worth.  If you determine the total cost should be $850 then the Service Center (Satya) will receive $425 and I will receive $425.  Satya offers lower room rates for $850 sessions.  Satya’s minimum room rate for a journey is $600-$700  in all other cases.

Robert Allen is a licensed Psilocybin Facilitator dedicated to helping individuals create meaningful change through intentional, evidence-informed psilocybin experiences.  He emphasizes thoughtful preparation, safety, and post-session integration to help participants turn insights into real-world growth.

Drawing on principles of integral philosophy, mindfulness, and comprehensive wellness strategies, Robert approaches facilitation with both care and clinical rigor. With over twenty years of experience in human development, transformative practices, and non-ordinary states of consciousness, he believes that psilocybin, when paired with professional guidance and personal
readiness, can reveal pathways to lasting clarity and transformation.

Robert’s practice is research-informed, ethically grounded, and co-created with each participant.  He honors every individual’s unique journey, offering a steady, compassionate presence that supports self-discovery and healing.

Sessions are held with strict confidentiality and the highest
level of discretion to ensure participants feel fully safe and supported.

“You are not alone in this process. I am here with you, supporting each step of your journey.”

Some highlights of my life include being a part of the “Summer of Love” in San Francisco. This is where I had my first experience with psychedelics.

I moved to Ashland where I opened the first City and State licensed Massage Studio across from the college. Then I went across the street and enrolled in the college, now Southern Oregon University.   I graduated with a Masters Degree in Psychology and Education.

My internship at the CARE Unit was a thirty-day residential treatment center and medical detox center, which became my first job in recovery. I became a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Master’s Level (CADC III).

After a significant loss in my life, I went to WinterSpring Center for Grief and Loss first as a client and then as a facilitator of the Sudden Loss group. I worked at the Allied Medication Assisted Treatment Program for Opioid Addiction (2016-2020).

I have my private practice now counseling those dealing with addiction and/or grief. Then I became an Oregon Licensed Psilocybin Facilitator in 2023 and now am very excited to be able to add this powerful tool to my work!

Now, when I facilitate psilocybin sessions I establish a place that is safe to share and bear witness to what was shared, and as much as possible to stay out of the way of the individual’s journey. As a psilocybin facilitator, I bring over 50 years of experience working with various altered states.

What I have learned about psilocybin facilitation is that the best way to have a productive session is preparation. We will spend as much time as needed to help you feel ready and as much time as you need to integrate your trip a day or so after the experience. We will work in person initially, and afterwards either in person or via my telehealth portal.

Joey embodies what it means to be a True Friend to those on their journey – simply being fully present with a quiet mind and an open heart. Through his own journeys as well as working with others, he has found that what can initially be seen as the most challenging moments often turn out to be the greatest gifts, leading to deep and profound insights and tremendous clarity.

In addition to his own spiritual search which started about 25 years ago as well as working for The Leela School of Awakening for the last 11 years where he serves as a teacher and mentor; a surprise gift in his desire to serve alongside this sacred medicine has come from his training in improvisational comedy from Chicago’s renowned Second City. The art of improv has given Joey a deep appreciation for the sweet, healing power of laughter as well as the ability to adapt and stay calm and present in difficult and unforeseen situations. 

Joey’s approach creates a safe container where participants feel both held and free to fully open, knowing they’re supported with compassion, a deep stillness, and an open, loving presence.

Joey is happy to offer a free consultation which can be on the phone or Zoom.  As your facilitator, he will meet with you for an in-depth session prior to your journey to support you in becoming very clear on your intention; an essential part of the process.  His preference is to meet in person for an initial integration session the day after your journey and if requested, another session a week or two after.  He is also available to meet 1:1 for continued support in your own deepening process.
