About the Retreat:Professionally Guided Psilocybin Experiences
Founded by a Stanford-trained aerospace engineer and advised by Harvard-trained psychiatrists, Odyssey provides group psilocybin experiences (4-day retreats) at a variety of licensed service centers in Oregon. Private sessions are also available with Odyssey’s statewide network of highly vetted psilocybin service providers, who are matched with clients based on individual needs and goals.
Services are available to anyone looking for profound personal growth, as well as people seeking modalities to supplement their current treatments for mental health issues like depression, PTSD, OCD, grief or existential distress (e.g. in palliative care).
Odyssey is committed to science and evidence-based practices in our services, which utilize lab-tested psilocybin and precision dosing. The end-to-end experience is heavily influenced by clinical trial protocols and existing psychedelic literature. Odyssey’s extended team also consists of psychedelic experts from MAPS and UCSF clinical trials, Stanford trained physicians, palliative care physicians and highly experienced underground guides.
Description of Services:Group Psilocybin Retreats
An Odyssey retreat is an immersive, all-inclusive 4-day experience designed to maximize the benefits of psilocybin. Enjoy the comfort and serenity of a beautiful, natural setting and rest assured knowing our team of licensed facilitators is here to support you every step of the way. While your psilocybin journey will be inwardly focused, sharing the retreat experience with a group can be a unique opportunity to lean into the joyous and connective aspects of psilocybin.
In September 2023, Odyssey made history by running the first-ever legal psilocybin retreat in the US.

Client Testimonials
"I loved this experience, felt it was tremendously powerful and meaningful to my life, and that Odyssey has opened the door to a new path for exploration." — Sam, Odyssey private session client
"I have nothing but positive things to say about the Odyssey retreat. For some context, this review is written by someone without prior personal experience with psychedelics. Everyone was very helpful and caring. And, not in a pushy or intrusive kind of way. I was expertly guided toward feeling prepared and confident for the journey ahead, and increasingly relaxed." — Connor, Odyssey retreat participant
