Frank is a licensed psilocybin facilitator who believes we all can achieve wholeness and inner freedom. With his medical career, he’s skilled at listening for the nuances that make each individual unique, and he uses this expertise to help the psilocybin traveler in their journey toward true transformation.
Frank began his career in health care when he graduated from medical school in 1987. Previously a surgeon, he's now grateful for the opportunity to help people support their mental health through the use of plant medicines to achieve greater insight and awareness.
He helped gather signatures in 2020 to place Measure 109, the Psilocybin Services Initiative, on the Oregon ballot that November. Frank is a member of the Central Oregon Psychedelic Society, the Psilocybin Facilitator Association, and the Psilocybin Assisted Therapy Association. He also participates in regular peer review with psilocybin facilitator colleagues.
He uses a mindfulness-based approach in his facilitation work and enjoys assisting all those drawn to plant medicines. This includes those challenged with substance use, anxiety (including end-of-life), depression, PTSD, those who feel stuck in their life, and those who desire personal growth and/or to (re)connect with spirit.
To further his understanding of plant medicines and healing, Frank has participated in transformative group ceremonies led by a Mazatec healer in Mexico. Through his work, he’s discovered valuable connections in his life between the past and present and established priorities that help him focus on living mindfully. His free-time activities include hiking, kayaking, snowboarding, gardening, yoga, and meditation.
Frank’s goal is for your experience to be meaningful and safe. He comes to this work with humility, and also respect – for the natural world and cultures that share these medicines, for our ability to connect with our inner healer, and for our potential to achieve inner freedom.
The Process
STEP
1
Introduction: We meet with a free video consultation to answer your questions about the psilocybin facilitation process and also to ensure your health history makes you a decent candidate for psilocybin.
STEP
2
Preparation: We meet for two prep sessions (either in-person or video) for 60-90 minutes each to get to know each other, build trust, discuss any mental health concerns you might have, and go over the psilocybin journey itself.
STEP
3
Journey: We meet at a licensed service center and I facilitate a safe space where you can relax and embark on your 4-8 hour (hopefully transformative) psilocybin journey.
STEP
4
Integration: The multi-step process of weaving the insight gained in your journey into your daily life. We meet at least twice, and optimally, your therapist/family/friends are also involved. Community and/or online integration groups can also be helpful.
