4. Disclaimer form - confirms that we are aligned with the scope of our work
5. Enrollment - sliding-scale pricing approach to match your resourcesOverview of Protocol:We begin with one brief phone call (~20 min) to discuss your initial intentions and motivations for healing with psychedelics. I share with you my approach and send to you a document that outlines our Guided Program (1 month).
We then have a video call (~30 min) to dive deeper into your discernment process into guided care for a psychedelic journey.
If we mutually decide to move forward, you'll sign intake and disclaimer forms and we'll schedule your 1 month journey.
