Testimonials

Dr. Kara Crisp was an exceptionally kind, gentle, patient, and wise facilitator for my recent psilocybin-assisted therapy experience. If you are someone considering this work, especially for any potential neurological or medical benefits, I would strongly urge you to work with Dr. Crisp specifically. Her background in microbiology sets her apart from many licensed facilitators, and her knowledge of the nervous system is vast. I would recommend her to anyone dealing with mental health and neurological issues; in fact, I have already personally recommended her to two friends dealing with such challenges. Dr. Crisp’s expertise and bedside manner made the preparation process, the journey itself, and the integration process feel safe and seamless. Because this work is so vulnerable, it is so important to work with a facilitator you feel you can trust. I would say without question that Dr. Crisp is someone in whom you can place your trust.

A bit about my story (in case it overlaps with yours): I had suffered two back-to-back concussions about a year and a half prior to my journey and had still been dealing with symptoms such as brain fog/feeling “out of it,” chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, and tinnitus. I am glad to report that the psilocybin-assisted therapy I did with Dr. Crisp cleared all of my neurological symptoms other than my lingering anxiety and tinnitus. It seemed to have resynchronized some maladaptive patterns that my brain had settled into post-head injuries. If you’ve been struggling with post-concussive syndrome, I would even more-so highly recommend working with Dr. Crisp for psilocybin-assisted therapy. It is truly the only thing that has provided immediate, lasting relief from my neurological symptoms.

If it wasn’t for Kara and the therapy that I received from the journey that I received from her being in the room and the dose that I received, I don’t think I could have fully integrated and turned the pain of that experience into...

I wasn’t looking for healing. I was looking for expansion—for a facilitated psilocybin adventure to stretch my creative edges. Since this was my first journey, another facilitator suggested I switch to Kara, a licensed guide and Naturopathic Doctor. That was the moment everything shifted. From our first conversation, I felt it: rhythm, resonance, relief. Kara didn’t...

If you are looking for a facilitator for your Oregon State sanctioned psilocybin journey, I urge you seriously consider contacting Kara Crisp. I was fortunate enough to have her help me on my journey, and also help me with the preparations and the follow ups. She’s great!

Working with Kara was a profound and transformative experience. From our first conversation through the journey, to the aftercare that followed, I felt seen, supported, and valued.
