Psychedelic Therapy Training

Educating clinicians and researchers in a new paradigm of mental health treatment.

I offer training in a wide array of psychedelic modalities

I have been a community educator around harm reduction, research, and therapeutic use of psychedelics since I founded the Aware Project in early 2015. More recently my passion for teaching has spread to ketamine-assisted psychotherapy training. I aim to foster the next generation of therapists and guides entering into this new paradigm of healing with integrity, steady confidence, and a wise heart.

Topics that I have taught:

  • Psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy (ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin, 5-MeO-DMT, ibogaine)

  • Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic therapy with psychedelics

  • Harm reduction for recreational/celebratory use

  • Cultivating the therapist seat

  • Demos and fishbowls of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy

  • Holding space for big experiences

  • Preparation and integration of psychedelic experiences in different contexts

  • Psycholytic psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy

  • Music for psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy

Invite Ashley to teach at your community or organization…

I believe that inside each of us there is a place where we are able to be a clear and loving witness to the unfolding of the universe in the form of the person in front of us.

Feedback from past trainings:

  • "So fantastic. Ashley is amazing. Her calm and knowledge were incredible. Her passion for this work shines through so clearly, and her experience with MAPS and MDMA-assisted therapy were hugely beneficial. I felt really supported by her particularly after a difficult conversation that I had with another of the leaders. She was clearly tuned into the well-being of the participants. She was a crucial part of making the training so successtul. Additionally, her IFS training was great - I have no background in IFS, and it was clear and easy to follow."

  • "A warrior and a guardian Angel. Her grounding presence, deep knowledge and intuition - everything she said and did intention and impact locked in tight - helped our growth and healing. She's no nonsense, direct yet her compassion and love always permeated the space with her deep, embodied wisdom. It's so crystal clear she is exactly who and where she needs to be to carry this work forward."

  • "Ashley was the wise crone of this training. I could feel her depth of experience both in her own psychedelic experience. and also clinically. Ashley- you have so much to offer in this space. You were a grounding and wise force. You are such a gift. The world is lucky to have you. I am so honored to have journeyed in your presence."

  • "I hope this is not inappropriate. But the only thing that came to mind the entire time was Ashley is a badass at what she does. I hope to reach her level."

  • "Ashley pulled so many golden nuggets out for my "goodie bag" during the week! Her vast shared experience facilitating journeys with ketamine, leading dance, her IFS training (CRYSTAL CLEAR-wow, BRAVO!), and genuine passion and love for this work resonated in everything she did and said. She is a great educator. She also was very acutely aware of feelings and dynamics in the room, and always had incredibly thoughtful suggestions and answers for all of us in the group."

  • "There are no words to capture Ashley's magic! Her presence is grounding, intelligent delivery of information, and true inner confidence shines so bright! Ashley has a way of making you feel seen, safe, and loved all at once! That's a true and beautiful gift and many leaders across the works can learn from Ashley and take her lead!"
