Our private psilocybin ceremony is designed for those ready to go inward—with support, structure, and integrity.

We use high-quality, full-spectrum psilocybin mushrooms in a controlled, confidential setting. This is not a group retreat or recreational experience. It's a professional, one-on-one session facilitated by a professional who stays with you from start to finish.

This work is about getting clear—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. People come to these sessions to move through grief, reset their patterns, or reconnect to something deeper than everyday life allows.

Focused. Intentional. Backed by research.

Clinical studies from institutions like Johns Hopkins and NYU consistently show psilocybin’s potential for long-term psychological benefit. According to studies:

• 87% report increased life satisfaction for months or years after their psilocybin session

• 70% say a single psilocybin session ranks among the most meaningful experiences of their lives

This offering is designed to support lasting change—not just a powerful experience. You’ll find the details below about how the process works, what’s included, who you’ll be working with, and how to take the next step..

Ceremonies typically begin around 11 a.m. and are designed to provide a safe, intentional, and transformative experience. Here's what to expect:

1. Apply
Start by submitting an application. This helps us understand your background, intentions, and readiness for this work.

2. Introductory Call
If your application is accepted, we’ll schedule a free one-hour call to connect, answer your questions, and feel into alignment.

3. Preparatory Meeting
Before confirming your ceremony, we’ll meet for one hour to review your goals, go over the process, and ensure mutual trust and safety. Your well-being comes first.

4. Set a Ceremony Date
There’s no rush. We’ll choose a date together that feels right—one that gives you time to prepare, and space afterward to rest and reflect.

5. Four Weekly Prep Calls
Over the month leading up to your ceremony, we’ll meet weekly for 1-on-1 preparation sessions. These may include intention setting, emotional inquiry, breathwork, lifestyle guidance, and curated resources.

6. Ceremony Day
Ceremonies begin around 11 a.m. and unfold slowly across the day. There’s no rush—we move at the pace of presence. Here's what to expect:

• Arrival & Grounding
  We begin with breathwork and meditation to settle the body and mind.

• Optional Cacao Ceremony
  A heart-opening ritual to connect with gratitude and intention.

• Create Your Sacred Space
  Bring personal items—candles, flowers, photos, letters—to help you feel safe and anchored.

• Intention & Flight Instructions
  We’ll review your intention and walk through what to expect during the journey.

• The Journey
  After receiving your personalized psilocybin dose, you’ll go inward with an eye mask and curated music. Your facilitator stays present throughout to support you.

• No Rush
  The ceremony unfolds in its own time. Whether 4 or 8 hours, we honor the medicine’s rhythm.

• Closing & Sharing
  We’ll close the space with gratitude and reflection. When you’re ready, we invite gentle sharing to begin the integration process.

7. Integration Support
You’ll receive two 1-on-1 integration sessions: one shortly after your ceremony and another a few weeks later. Integration is where insights become transformation—and we’ll walk that path with you.

Río is a psychedelic guide, teacher, and the founder of Brooklyn Psychedelic. He’s guided hundreds of people through psilocybin and ayahuasca ceremonies across Mexico, Peru, and the U.S.

His path has led him from the Amazon rainforest, where he apprenticed with Shipibo elders, to the Himalayas, where he trained in yoga, meditation, and breathwork. He spent years in Oaxaca studying mushroom medicine—including the lineage of María Sabina—and has walked with the Wixárika people of Northern Mexico, guardians of the sacred Peyote cactus.

Río also brings a strong academic foundation to his work. After earning a degree in Social Entrepreneurship, he completed a Social Impact Incubator at Columbia University and was later accepted into the Social Work Master’s programs of both Columbia University and the NYU Silver School of Social Work—reflecting his commitment to modern therapeutic approaches, trauma-informed care, and clinical integrity

But beyond credentials and experience,
Río brings presence.

He meets each person with openness and respect—without judgment, and without agenda. His role is not to fix or heal, but to help create a safe, sacred space where your own inner healer can emerge.

We are based in:

• New York City and

• Oaxaca, Mexico

We operate on a 100% donation-based model, relying solely on contributions to remain sustainable. We are grateful for the generosity of our community, which has allowed us to continue this work.
