Psilocybin Therapy & Psychedelic Therapy Experiences:
1. Legal & Regulatory Questions (Colorado Psilocybin Therapy)
1. Is psilocybin therapy legal in Colorado?
Yes. Psilocybin therapy (and other psychedelic therapies soon to come) is fully legal in Colorado under the Natural Medicine Health Act of 2022. The Psychedelic Therapy Den is a licensed healing center operating in full compliance with all state regulations. Our facilitators are licensed, our facility is approved, and all services are provided within Colorado’s legal framework.
Colorado’s Natural Medicine Health Act created a regulated system for licensed healing centers and facilitators to legally provide psilocybin-assisted therapy. This differs from simple decriminalization, as it establishes clear safety, training, and oversight standards.
Do I need a prescription or medical diagnosis to participate?
No prescription is required. Psilocybin therapy in Colorado is not prescribed like a pharmaceutical. Participation is based on screening, informed consent, and therapeutic readiness rather than a formal diagnosis. We will provide the mushrooms at cost to you through a licensed mushroom cultivator or manufacturer.
Are facilitators licensed and regulated in Colorado?
Yes. All facilitators providing psilocybin-assisted therapy in licensed Colorado healing centers must meet rigorous state training, licensing, and ethical requirements. At The Psychedelic Therapy Den, our facilitators operate under state-approved clinical and safety guidelines to ensure the highest level of care. Michael P. Biggans, JD/MS, LPC, is a Licensed Clinical Psilocybin Facilitator, an important distinction for individuals seeking psilocybin therapy to address mental health concerns through an integrated, clinically informed approach.
2. Safety, Eligibility & Readiness
Who is eligible for psilocybin-assisted therapy in Colorado?
Psilocybin therapy is available to adults 21 and older. Before participating, clients complete a screening process to assess physical health, mental health history, medications, and personal goals to ensure psilocybin therapy is appropriate and safe.
Is psilocybin therapy safe?
When provided in a licensed healing center with trained facilitators, psilocybin therapy has a strong safety profile. We prioritize preparation, screening, informed consent, and trauma-informed care to support both emotional and psychological safety.
Are there conditions that may prevent participation?
Certain medical or psychiatric conditions – including active psychosis, current suicidality, specific cardiovascular conditions, or seizure-related disorders – may make psilocybin-assisted therapy inappropriate. These factors are carefully reviewed during your consultation and screening process to ensure safety, appropriateness, and the highest standard of care.
Is psilocybin therapy only for mental health conditions?
No. While research shows effectiveness for depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, OCD, and end-of-life distress, many people seek psilocybin therapy for personal growth, emotional healing, spiritual exploration, and greater self-understanding.
3. The Psilocybin Therapy Process & Experience
What does a full psilocybin therapy program/round include?
An individual psilocybin therapy round/program typically includes a comprehensive intake/screening process, one preparation session, a 6–8 hour facilitated journey session, and integration support afterward. This structure helps maximize both safety and long-term benefit.
What happens during a psilocybin-assisted therapy session?
Sessions take place in our licensed, private, and comfortable healing space. Each journey begins with a thorough review of preparation, intentions, and any fears or concerns present on the day of your session. You then receive a carefully measured dose and spend the experience supported by a licensed facilitator or licensed clinical psilocybin facilitator, ensuring safety and attuned care throughout.
For individuals experiencing mental health symptoms, our clinical facilitators provide skilled therapeutic support to help address long-standing patterns and challenges. Experiences are often deeply introspective and supported by music and eye shades, while still allowing space for therapeutic dialogue, clinically appropriate interventions, and other supportive resourcing as needed.
Integration support follows the journey, helping you translate insights into meaningful, sustainable changes in daily life.
How many psilocybin sessions are typically needed?
Many people experience meaningful change in 1–3 psilocybin-assisted therapy sessions. Research shows that psilocybin can promote neuroplasticity, allowing deeply held emotional patterns to shift more rapidly than with traditional talk therapy alone. Depending on your needs and goals, you may have the option to continue working with your facilitator as your therapist or coach for ongoing preparation, integration, and personal growth support, creating continuity of care beyond the medicine sessions.
How is psilocybin therapy different from traditional talk therapy?
Traditional talk therapy works primarily through the conscious mind over time. Psilocybin therapy supports neuroplasticity, allowing access to deeper emotional and somatic material. We integrate both approaches by combining preparation and integration therapy with the psilocybin experience.
Can people from out of state participate?
Yes. Psilocybin therapy in Colorado is legal for anyone 21 or older, regardless of residency. We recommend arriving 1–2 days before your session and staying 1–2 days afterward for preparation and integration support. We’re happy to assist with planning and accommodations.

4. Facilitation Style, Therapeutic Approach & Clinical Depth
What does facilitation look like during a psilocybin therapy session?
Facilitation is responsive rather than prescriptive. While there are periods of inward, nonverbal exploration, facilitators remain present throughout the entire session to provide grounding, emotional support, and therapeutic guidance as needed. Depending on what arises, facilitation may include gentle inquiry, somatic grounding, parts-based dialogue, or acceptance-based support to help clients stay engaged rather than overwhelmed or avoidant.
Is psilocybin therapy mostly silent, or interactive?
Both. Psilocybin sessions naturally move in waves. Some phases are deeply internal and nonverbal; others benefit from active therapeutic engagement. Our facilitators are trained to recognize when interaction is supportive versus when space is more healing, and to adjust moment by moment rather than applying a rigid model.
How do facilitators help when difficult emotions or memories arise?
When challenging material emerges, facilitators help clients remain anchored in adult Self-energy rather than being overtaken by survival responses (fight, flight, freeze, or fawn). This may include grounding techniques in extreme cases, parts-based approaches during psycholytic (low-to-medium dose) sessions, acceptance and commitment strategies, or gentle reorientation to the present moment – always at the client’s pace.
What therapeutic models inform your facilitation?
Our work integrates evidence-informed approaches including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), person-centered therapy, and trauma-informed somatic principles. These models are adapted specifically for non-ordinary states of consciousness, rather than applied in a one-size-fits-all way.
5. Dosing Philosophy: Low, Moderate & Macro-Dose Work
Do you offer both lower-dose and higher-dose (macro-dose) psilocybin sessions?
Yes. We support a full spectrum of dosing approaches, from lower-dose psycholytic work to full macro-dose experiences. Dose selection is collaborative and based on readiness, intention, history, and therapeutic goals – not a predetermined formula.
What is the difference between psycholytic and macro-dose sessions?
Lower-dose to medium-dose (psycholytic) sessions allow for more conversational, insight-oriented work, such as parts work at times, while maintaining a stronger sense of ego structure. Macro-dose sessions often involve deeper immersion, reduced narrative control, and more symbolic or somatic processing. Both approaches can be therapeutic; neither is inherently “better.”
Are ‘hero doses’ or high-dose sessions available?
For clients who are appropriately screened, prepared, and supported, higher-dose sessions may be available. These are approached with clinical caution, extensive preparation, and clear integration planning. High-dose work is never rushed, encouraged prematurely, or treated as a shortcut to healing.
Is the cost different for higher or lower doses?
No. Our pricing reflects the full-day facilitation, preparation, safety, and integration support required regardless of dose level. The therapeutic container and professional care remain the same. The only difference in cost would be the amount of monies paid for the Psilocin, which is collected on the day of administration in cash usually.
Can people from out of state participate?
Yes. Psilocybin therapy in Colorado is legal for anyone 21 or older, regardless of residency. We recommend arriving 1–2 days before your session and staying 1–2 days afterward for preparation and integration support. We’re happy to assist with planning and accommodations.
6. Treatment Planning & Number of Sessions
How many psilocybin sessions do people usually need?
This varies widely. Some individuals experience meaningful resolution after a single macro-dose session. Others benefit from multiple sessions over time, especially when working with complex trauma, OCD, or long-standing patterns. There is no required minimum or maximum number of sessions.
Can clients start with lower doses and work up gradually?
Yes. Many clients begin with one or more lower-dose sessions to build trust, familiarity, and internal capacity before considering more intense, larger-dose work. This stepped approach can be especially helpful for individuals with anxiety, trauma histories, or concerns about intensity.
Is psilocybin therapy a one-time experience or an ongoing process?
While some clients seek a single therapeutic experience, psilocybin therapy is often most effective when viewed as a process that includes preparation, the session itself, and integration work afterward. Ongoing integration (living in line with your discoveries, for instance) is as important as the journey session.
7. Integration, Outcomes & Long-Term Change
What does integration support involve?
Integration helps translate insights and emotional processing into daily life. This may include meaning-making, behavioral changes, values clarification, parts integration, and nervous system regulation strategies. Integration support is tailored to each client rather than scripted.
How is this different from retreat-style psychedelic experiences?
Our work is clinically grounded, individualized, and therapeutically focused rather than ceremonial or retreat-based. Sessions are structured around psychological safety, continuity of care when appropriate, and long-term change – not peak experiences alone.
Do you work with treatment-resistant conditions?
We often work with individuals who have not found relief through conventional approaches, including treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, OCD, and complex trauma. Participation is based on screening and readiness, not diagnosis alone.
How is your approach different from other psilocybin providers?
Our differentiation lies in clinical depth, therapeutic flexibility, and integration of established psychotherapeutic frameworks within altered states. Rather than relying solely on music, silence, or ceremony, we actively support psychological processing when appropriate.
Why are your services more affordable than some other providers?
Affordability is a core value. Our pricing reflects a commitment to accessibility without compromising facilitator experience, preparation time, or clinical rigor. Cost is not tied to dose level or intensity of experience.
Do facilitators have clinical or therapeutic backgrounds?
Michael P. Biggans, Licensed Clinical Psilocybin Facilitator (License #00017) and Owner (License #00048) brings extensive experience in mental health, trauma-informed care, and psychedelic-assisted work. This background allows for nuanced support when complex psychological material arises.
8. For Therapists, Clinicians, Facilitators, Coaches & Those Seeking Training
Do you offer training, consultation, or supervision for other professionals?
Yes. We provide consultation, supervision, and mentorship for therapists, clinicians, facilitators, guides, coaches, and others seeking to deepen their competence in psilocybin-assisted work. This includes both general clinical consultation and supervision specific to Colorado’s regulated psilocybin framework.
Do you provide clinical supervision related to psilocybin facilitation?
Yes. As a licensed clinical psilocybin facilitator in Colorado, we are able to provide required clinical consultation for facilitators working with clients who have a mental health diagnosis. Under Colorado law (DORRA / Proposition 122), non-clinical facilitators must consult with a licensed clinical facilitator when working with diagnosed clients. This supervision helps ensure ethical practice, client safety, and regulatory compliance.
Do you work with therapists who want to refer clients for psilocybin therapy?
Yes. We regularly collaborate with outside therapists and clinicians whose clients may benefit from a structured psilocybin therapy round. In these cases, we do not take over the client’s ongoing therapy. Instead, we provide a focused psilocybin therapy process – including screening, preparation, facilitated administration, and integration – after which clients return to their primary therapist.
Is there an opportunity to train in your space or learn your facilitation model?
Potentially, yes. For individuals who are aligned, appropriately trained, and open to collaborative learning, we offer opportunities to learn within our clinical and facilitation framework. This may include exposure to preparation practices, session flow, integration models, and trauma-informed approaches to psychedelic work.
