Preparation, Interventions and Support During Expanded States of Consciousness, and Integration



Expanded States of Consciousness (ESC) have accompanied humanity for thousands of years, forming part of various spiritual traditions, contemplative practices, and processes of personal transformation. In recent decades, growing scientific interest in the therapeutic potential of psychedelics and other approaches to inducing these states has opened new perspectives in the fields of Psychology, Psychotherapy, and Mental Health.



Now in its 4th edition, the Training in Psychotropic-Assisted Practices is offered as an intensive 10-day residential programme, bringing together the three fundamental dimensions of supporting Expanded States of Consciousness: preparation, interventions and support during the experience, and integration.



This training offers an integrative and multidisciplinary approach, building bridges between contemporary scientific research, Transpersonal Psychology, various psychotherapeutic approaches, somatic work, and the knowledge developed through decades of research and practice in this field.



Throughout the ten days, we will explore the psychological and neurobiological foundations of these states, preparation processes, the importance of set and setting, the therapeutic relationship, different approaches to providing support, and the processes of psychological, emotional, somatic, and existential integration.



Particular attention will be given to ethics, informed consent, the assessment of contraindications, risk reduction and harm minimisation, the management of challenging experiences, and participant safety.



The experiential dimension is one of the central pillars of this training. Through breathwork, body awareness, movement, meditation, relational exercises, and simulated support scenarios, participants will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding and develop practical skills in an environment of learning, reflection, and shared experience.



Designed for psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, and other professionals working in healthcare and psychological support, this training aims to foster a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of Expanded States of Consciousness, promoting professional practice grounded in scientific rigour, practical experience, human sensitivity, and ethical responsibility.
