Psilocybin-Assisted Therapy in Denver, CO

Unlock your healing potential with support services for personal psilocybin experiences

With the passage of Colorado's Proposition 122 in November 2022, the landscape for psilocybin-assisted therapy is evolving. This new legislation decriminalizes personal use of psychedelic mushrooms for adults over 21 and, once regulations are in place by late 2024, will allow licensed healing centers to offer supervised psilocybin support. While Breakthrough cannot yet provide psilocybin-assisted therapy or sell psilocybin-containing mushrooms, under this new State law we are able to offer counseling and guidance to help you safely integrate personal experiences with psilocybin, ensuring you feel fully supported in your healing and personal or spiritual journey.

The Therapeutic Power of Psilocybin: A Closer Look

Psilocybin, a naturally occurring psychedelic compound, is gaining recognition for its potential to foster profound emotional and psychological insights. Designated as a "Breakthrough Therapy" by the FDA, psilocybin has shown promise in clinical trials as a safe and effective treatment for various mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, and end-of-life distress. By targeting serotonin receptors, psilocybin stimulates connectivity in brain areas associated with mood, cognition, and self-awareness, creating a "therapeutic window" that can dissolve rigid thought patterns. This unique process opens opportunities for patients to adopt healthier habits, set boundaries, and reframe negative emotions with greater ease when combined with supportive therapy.
