Jeanette is committed to helping Veterans and First Responders by facilitating psilocybin services at Lucid Cradle.
To make this unique psilocybin experience more accessible, Jeanette and Lucid Cradle will provide all services for veterans and first responders at a 50% discount.
If you would like to sponsor a psilocybin experience for a veteran or a first responder at Lucid Cradle, we invite you to contact us. Thank you.
The Oregon psilocybin program is an adult use program rather than a therapy. It is not a rejection of the healing potential psilocybin offers, but rather a recognition of the difference in scope of practice between a psilocybin facilitator and a talk therapist.
As a person who lives with post-traumatic stress myself, I take the care of a person with Trauma experiences very seriously. In an effort to test my therapeutic assumptions and to allow myself to hone skills specifically relevant to providing care for folks dealing with post-traumatic stress, I have provided multi-day services at Lucid Cradle to 12 veterans and 2 First Responders free of charge. My heart overflows with gratitude for the trust and openness of my clients. Their willingness to be deeply vulnerable in my presence is something I do not take for granted. They have helped me train skills I will continue to use to help people with post-traumatic stress access healing.
I have witnessed and personally experienced sustained healing and growth through honoring my own needs, respecting my resistance and negotiating my own boundaries as it feels right in the moment. For me, it is important that I choose to surrender, not feel obligated to quiet my needs. My clients are empowered to select the experience they feel is right for them, and I support them without judgement. You may pick your own music (or silence), keep your eyes closed or open them, concentrate on your internal process quietly or reach for my help through conversation or physical touch (holding your hand, for example).
I want to combine all the best elements of the different approaches to working with psilocybin, and based on my experience and literature research, implement a protocol I found highly effective. Non-directive, non-judgmental, not needlessly constrained, no time pressure, no performance requirements. You can let go and experience whatever happens on your journey. You will learn things about yourself and you will have a trusted guide by your side as you explore beneath your conscious mind.
Psilocybin journeys are not always pleasant. You may experience an upset stomach and vomit or have diarrhea. It will pass. You might feel hot or cold and feel your heart racing. I will be there to help you through the discomfort and remind you that psilocybin is not toxic. There is a full private bathroom at Lucid Cradle, a relaxing bedroom and a vibrant living room. You will be the only client there at the time and will be able to listen to your music on ambient speakers, move around the space as you like and pace your experience as is best for you. You will not be able to leave Lucid Cradle during the psilocybin journey itself, and I hope that you will find the space equally inviting, comforting and stimulating. Lucid Cradle also offers the use of a Shiftwave system, which has in itself been demonstrated to have impressive therapeutic outcomes for mood regulation and nervous system adjustment.
Finding out how well my approach is working for my clients is important to me. I ask for your willingness to give me feedback and consider allowing me to speak or write publicly about what worked and what did not work for people. We have a great opportunity to use psilocybin to help folks find their best outlook on life and move closer to balance through integration. If sharing about our discoveries can help other people heal, I ask that you consider contributing to the effort.
