Now May Not Be the Right Time for an Odyssey Experience
What This Result Means
From what you shared, you’ve had certain mental health or medical factors that make psilocybin more risky (for example, specific diagnoses or medications, or a recent mental health crisis) and we do not recommend moving forward with an Odyssey psilocybin experience at this time.
What You Can Do Instead
Here are some options that may be more supportive right now:
- Share your interest in psychedelic‑assisted therapy with your current healthcare provider, and ask what they see as safe and appropriate next steps for you.
- Focus on stabilizing support first through therapy, medication management, support groups, and crisis resources if needed.
- Learn about legal psilocybin, preparation, and integration without feeling pressure to move into a journey.
If your circumstances change you’re welcome to come back, retake the Readiness Assessment, and see if Odyssey becomes a better fit at that time.

Common questions
Your consultation is a 30-minute conversation with one of our team members to answer your questions about psilocybin with Odyssey. We'll discuss the differences between private experiences and group experiences, our process, and help you understand what to expect. This is a judgment-free space where you can ask anything you're curious about.
Take time before the call to reflect on:
- What drew you to explore psilocybin experiences
- Any specific challenges, transitions, or growth areas you're navigating
- Your comfort level with group vs. individual experiences
- Any concerns or questions about the process
- Your timeline and scheduling considerations
Come prepared to discuss your intentions openly - this helps us determine if Odyssey is the right fit for you.
It's primarily an opportunity for you to ask us questions and get more information about our services. We're here to answer your questions about psilocybin experiences, our approach, and help you understand if Odyssey might be right for you.
Consider asking about:
- The differences between our group retreats and private sessions
- Our safety screening process and what it involves
- What preparation and integration support looks like
- Timing, logistics, and investment for your preferred option
- Our facilitators' backgrounds and training
- Any specific concerns about your situation
No prior research is required. We'll explain everything you need to know during our conversation. However, if you'd like background context, we recommend Michael Pollan's "How to Change Your Mind" (book or Netflix series, episode 2) for an accessible introduction to psilocybin science.
That's completely normal. Many people feel uncertain when first exploring psilocybin experiences. Our team creates safe, welcoming conversations that honor wherever you are in your journey. There's no pressure to commit to anything - this call is purely exploratory to help you make an informed decision.
If you decide to move forward after our conversation, the next step is beginning to meet with our facilitators to find someone you want to work with. We'll help connect you with facilitators whose approach and expertise align with your needs and preferences
