What to Expect During a Psychedelic Therapy Session
During a therapeutic session, you can anticipate a primary period focused on introspection and relaxation. You'll be invited to lie down with an eye mask and headphones, allowing you to immerse yourself in a carefully curated playlist. This setup effectively eliminates external distractions and wandering thoughts, enabling the experience to unfold naturally, guided by your own inner world.
Throughout this time, one or both facilitators will provide their undivided attention, offering support, encouragement, and personalised assistance, talk therapy and somatic aspects as needed as you delve deeper into your being.

Hear from our Past Participants…
“My life has been profoundly transformed since beginning my journey with Forest Path, guided by the incredible wisdom and skills of Jaya and Paula. For 54 years, I carried the weight of pain, sorrow, and guilt, but through their guidance, I was able to finally let go and embrace a new narrative for my life. The old story I clung to is now lost, replaced by a vision of a future filled with more love, more laughter, and more living.
Jaya and Paula have not only helped me release the burdens of my past, but they have also illuminated my path forward. Since our journeys together, I’ve experienced a newfound beauty in life, a light that now animates my existence in ways I never thought possible. The changes I’ve undergone are so profound that words can hardly express my gratitude. I can never fully repay them for the gift they’ve given me—a life reborn with hope, joy, and endless possibilities.
Thank you, Jaya and Paula, for everything. My life will never be the same, and I am forever grateful.” H. Rosen
“I just want to say how grateful I am to have met you on my path and how much your words and your wisdom change my vision of me and of the world. You have brought me back to life and I will always be grateful for it.

Thank you for sharing your gift and helping me.” – J.Desrosiers
