Pure love and caring
This experience highly exceeded my expectations, and was among the most meaningful of my life.
I am an internal medicine physician, and I chose this program because I could share the experience with people who are in the healthcare field. The background and experience of the facilitators was reassuring and the thoroughness of the intake interview gave me a feeling of confidence in the professionalism of the program.
Odyssey created a safe, caring environment to experience your journey with other people in the most beautiful setting. Perfectly curated from start to finish. A sense of trust and caring pervaded the entire weekend.
The facilitator team was fantastic. Each facilitator brought a unique perspective and were wonderfully supportive, caring and open. Michelle was in charge and in control the entire time. Organized, compassionate and simply as good as it gets. Just pure love and caring
I would strongly recommend Odyssey to anyone considering the program.

Psychedelic Retreat
I am a Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Advanced Trained Clinical Hypnotherapist as well as a student at Vital Psychedelics. Odessey is a highly trained group of mental health professionals led by a visionary who walks the talk of spirituality. My psilocybin experience was life changing.

Surprisingly affordable for how life changing it was
I can't even explain how much this retreat changed my life. It's like giving your soul a chance to be reunited with your body amidst breath taking scenery in a loving, safe environment. It was well worth the time and financial investment, and I may even say it was more affordable than it should have been after seeing all that went in to it.

A top-class experience
I loved my time with Odyssey. The leadership team and the facilitators were truly unbelievable, caring, professional, and intuitive. Every small detail was taken care of. The psilocybin experience itself was emotive, positive, and therapeutic. Truly a top-class experience.

A Truly Amazing Journey
I had no idea what this retreat would bring my way but I didn't hesitate to sign up and trust the process, which was so professional from beginning to end. The facilitators made themselves available to answer questions, describe the events leading up to our session, and they were there every step of the way with empathy, respect, and thoughtfulness. Honestly, I was concerned because I was the oldest person in my group (68) and thought I might not fit in but the members of my group and the facilitators embraced my presence and eased my doubts.I felt safe to allow myself to experience the journey fully and it was very meaningful.
My experience was truly enlightening and amazing. I never expected to face what I did during my journey and the insights really opened my eyes to what I need to work on. I have a path forward. I'm so glad I took this step for myself.

astonishing
The location is exquisite, spent happy moments watching bats, birds against the backdrop of the Cascades - Broken Top and the 3 Sisters. Lavender bushes full of bees. Fantastic vistas. The house is beautiful and lived in. Minor fixes needed around the place but its beauty outweighed them.
As for the facilitators, I was astonished at how good they were. I feel like that part of Oregon (Bend area) is very rich in knowledge about therapeutic use of psychedelics. The leaders spoke of other experiences and research and were very generous with their time and knowledge. During the ceremony they were supportive. Afterwards with the integration pieces this continued. I never felt like it was intrusive. They listened, reflected and offered their experience. And I learned a lot.
The generosity, skill and support the facilitators provided made a huge difference for me. The medicine is strong - they helped me immeasurably through the process.
My group was fantastic as well. We all came from a similar professional field but - for the most part - did not know each other before. I have never experienced such caring and vulnerability from absolute strangers. I felt real connection.
This was a short event (2 travel days and 2 days on site) but was amazing. More than I imagined going in. Odyssey has worked hard to build up their program - thought went into everything but the whole thing did not feel packaged nor limited.

belonging to each other
Gabe at Odyssey created an open and relaxed environment from the initial inquiry call to the morning of departure. Our lead facilitator, Aaron, was with us from pick up to drop off from the airport. The Odyssey team took good care answering my questions and making my whole experience comfortable. Their understanding of this potent medicine is evident. I have attended many retreats and the presence the Odyssey team provided me and the group was exceptional. My experience was transformational. I highly recommend Odyssey for your journey experience.

When asked by an acquaintance if I found what I came for, my response was simple: “I got exactly what I came for—and more.” From the outset, my priority was finding a safe, legal psilocybin journey with a licensed facilitator, and Odyssey stood out for its emphasis on safety and support. From our first contact to the pre-journey preparations, the session itself, and post-journey integration, Odyssey exceeded every expectation. It was everything I had hoped for as a first-time journeyer and more. Reflecting back, the experience was one of the most profound and meaningful events of my life. Two months out, it’s clear to me that the changes I’ve experienced are not fleeting but lasting. The ever-present daily anxiety has nearly vanished. Life over the last two months has been a bit chaotic… yet, I was able to manage through it all without too much anxiety or insomnia. I also gradually stopped taking Lexapro and Trazodone (as a sleep aid) in the weeks leading up to my session and haven’t needed them since. I move through the world now with a lighter step, as if a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I’ve rediscovered a sense of wonder in both new and everyday experiences. It’s as if I have a deeper appreciation for life itself, and being alive in the time that we’re in despite our increasingly divided and complex world. Interestingly, my heart rate variability (HRV) has shown significant improvement since my journey. Initially, I thought it might be a fluke, but the trend has persisted. While I feel as if my life is changed, I know it’s just the beginning of yet another journey, and I am looking forward to moving ahead with my intentions.

Odyssey private session client, August 2024
This was a transformative experience. Living my entire life by a set of 'rules' that weren’t congruent with my core self has created years of needless anxiety and distorted perceptions. Both Gabe and Aaron were incredibly easy to work with and allowed me the space where I felt entirely at ease to explore the depths of my consciousness.
It's difficult to put this experience into words; it was incredibly profound, instilling within me a sense of calm and understanding I had never before experienced. The ease with which I could objectively examine my life and values, and understand my core self, is impossible to overstate; this was truly the first step in a new chapter of my life.
