Oregon's Emerging Psilocybin Services Workforce: A Survey of the First Legal Psilocybin Facilitators and Their Training Programs
March 11, 2026 Jason B Luoma, Kim Hoffman, Adie Wilson-Poe et al. preprint
Oregon's early psilocybin facilitator workforce is relatively diverse, with many holding existing healthcare licenses, though training expenses pose a moderate-to-severe financial strain for most. The mean tuition across 16 active training programs was $9,359, half offered diversity scholarships, and the mean planned session price was $1,388. Facilitators most commonly specialized in trauma, mental disorders, consciousness exploration, and spirituality, and most were satisfied with training while requesting ongoing opportunities. These findings inform future policy and program development for a diverse and effective workforce.
