Altered States Integration
Data updated
Altered States Integration is an online organization offering psychedelic integration, education, and harm- and risk-reduction services, including 1:1 coaching, group integration circles, workshops, and leadership training. They provide resources and events to help individuals and communities prepare for and integrate altered-state/psychedelic experiences.
Blossom’s read
Altered States Integration sits at the practical, community-facing end of psychedelic education rather than in a formal academic or clinical-training lane. Its strongest fit is for people seeking integration support or hands-on preparation for hosting peer-led psychedelic support groups, with a clear emphasis on harm reduction, consent, boundaries, crisis awareness, and community care. The provider’s notable lineage includes Elizabeth J.O.’s former supervisory work with the Zendo Project and Fireside Project, and Tobey Tobey’s harm-reduction work with Zendo, NEST, DanceSafe and Harmonia, alongside community organising in Denver. Its public reputation is modest but positive, supported by practitioner-directory listings, professional profiles and learner testimonials rather than by extensive independent evaluation.
Who is Altered States Integration for?
Best suited to aspiring facilitators, community organisers, therapists, counsellors and guides who want to create or strengthen psychedelic integration circles. Its introductory classes and coaching also suit curious members of the public seeking preparation, education or aftercare rather than clinical treatment.
What do you need before you start?
The Start2Finish workshop has no strict prerequisites and no prior experience is necessary, although a basic understanding of psychedelics is helpful. It does not train people to guide psychedelic journeys or provide licensed psychotherapy.
Is Altered States Integration accredited?
Start2Finish offers a certificate of completion for learners who complete the assignments and final quiz. The provider states that the certificate is not nationally recognised by an accrediting body, and no CME or CE credit is published.
How much does it cost?
The most recently published Start2Finish prices were US$293 for extra early-bird entry, US$347 for early-bird entry and US$461 for the full-price Plus ticket, which included 12 months of access to the recorded webinar library. The course included eight live classes, six mentoring sessions, cohort circles, resources, assignments, co-leading opportunities and a private forum. Current online coaching is listed at US$60 per hour, while the 20-minute discovery session costs US$22 and provides a US$20 credit towards a package or recorded class.
What do you walk away with?
Learners work towards launching and leading a peer-based psychedelic integration circle. The course covers ethical space holding, group dynamics, boundaries, consent, crisis response, facilitator self-care, administration, outreach and conflict management, with practical assignments, mentoring, templates and possible co-leading experience. Successful participants receive a certificate of completion, but not a nationally accredited professional qualification.
