Why they joined
In their own words
Being part of this founding cohort is a privilege, as this field is still being shaped. My hope is that it grows into an ethical, client-led space that honors both traditional wisdom and western therapy models.
Membership · with the field, for the field
Nobody gets good at this alone.
PsyStandard membership gives you what most practitioners work without: a group of peers who meet every month to think through real cases, supervision from recognised specialists, and colleagues across Europe who take this work as seriously as you do.
Why it exists
Somewhere to belong.
Somewhere to grow.
Somewhere to belong.
Almost every profession has a professional community: colleagues, exchange, people who take the work seriously. For psychedelic practitioners, currently that exists only in small pockets, not on a European scale. So whatever your training and however long you have practised, most of this work still happens on your own. Membership changes that.
Something to hold on to.
Without a shared standard, every practitioner sets their own bar. Membership brings practitioners together around one, so that good practice becomes the norm rather than the exception.
Across traditions
What does good practice look like when the science comes from one world and the medicine from another?
We don’t claim to have the answer, and we’re wary of anyone who does. What we can do is bring practitioners from different trainings and traditions into one room and let them learn from each other. Membership is that room.

Why they joined
In their own words
I'd spent years working largely on my own, without peers who understand the specific intersection of what I do. Intervision circles with practitioners across Europe who take both ethics and competence seriously felt like exactly what had been missing — and ethics as a floor rather than a ceiling. Being part of shaping that standard from the ground up, rather than receiving it later, was worth saying yes to immediately.
Why they joined
In their own words
Trust is the foundation of this work. A professional body gives clients what they deserve from day one: transparency about who we are, how we work, and the standards we hold ourselves to.
The membership
What membership gives you
What you get
Everything you need to keep getting better
01 / Intervision circles
A circle you can rely on
Five to eight practitioners who meet every month to think through real cases together. The same circle every time, so you can build the trust this work needs.
02 / Supervision
Recognised specialists, in your circle
Highly experienced specialists from different disciplines join your circle in turn, once a quarter in Core and more often in Core+.
03 / Access to the field
In the room with them
Open sessions with the practitioners and researchers you usually only read about. Direct questions, real conversation.
04 / Tools
Ready to use with clients
Templates and resources, built to the standard and updated as it develops.
05 / Code of conduct
A code you can stand behind
Every circle member signs the PsyStandard code of conduct. You can tell your clients which standard you work by.
Verification against the standard opens in the coming months. Regular intervision and supervision will be part of the criteria. As a member, you already have both.
Membership does not guarantee verification.
The founding cohort
The first cohort
already shaped what comes next
The first cohort tested the formats, gave the feedback, and helped shape what supervision and intervision actually look like here. Membership is now open to individual practitioners on a rolling basis.
“Psychedelic journeys are unpredictable by nature. No one can ever promise absolute safety — but the container, the preparation, the people holding it, the standards they work by — that’s what shifts the odds. And that’s what we can take responsibility for.”

PsyStandard membership has three tiers, so the right one depends on where you are: Open if you just want to follow the standard as it develops, Core if you want a standing peer circle and regular supervision, and Core+ if you already have a full caseload and want supervision more often.
These are early rates for our founding cohorts. Prices may increase for new members later on, but if you join at today's rate, your price is locked in for as long as you stay a member.
It counts. The €65 secures your place as a refundable deposit, and once you're confirmed it becomes your first month's membership — it's not an extra charge.
Yes — the €65 is refundable if you change your mind before your membership starts.
It's regular, structured time with an experienced supervisor to talk through your cases — a space to bring the psychedelic or psychedelic-adjacent work you're doing, get another qualified perspective, and make sure your practice stays safe and sound. It's not extra training or a lecture — it's ongoing oversight of your actual client work.
Yes. Core and Core+ are both cancel-any-month — there's no lock-in contract.
