The Collaborence: A Collaboration Focused Conference on Psilocybin & Mental Health in Oregon, May 18

PORTLAND, Ore. - April 4, 2024 - PRLog -- This exciting event will bring together those involved with Oregon Psilocybin Services (OPS), as well as other interested parties from the wider community. 20% of our profits will benefit two additional nonprofits, The Psilocybin Facilitator Association & UpHold our Troops.

Interest in therapy using psilocybin (a natural compound with psychoactive effects) and Oregon Psilocybin Services (OPS) is growing at a fast pace, so fast that those looking for alternative mental health options, particularly those from underrecognized communities, may be getting false or conflicting messages about both. There is consistent misinformation about the intention of OPS's adult supported use model along with misleading claims that OPS alone is therapeutic. It's time for the community to come together to learn and support each other to create solutions for everyone seeking mental health options.

'We are so excited to join forces with PATA. We view psilocybin as unlocking the mind's potential through holistic healing: Together, we pave the path towards transformative therapy. Join us as we come together to champion innovation and compassion at the forefront of psilocybin-assisted therapy." Mary Nielsen, Clinical Cognitive Facilitator Training and Brain Brew PDX.
