For the first time EVER we are honoured to host a very unique, transformational experience for Canadians on West Coast Mainland. It can be difficult to enjoy life when you are struggling with your mental health. That is why our founder, a former Paramedic, takes you on a beautiful healing journey that she went on and transformed her life.

Our retreat will be set in nature, the prefect place to heal. You can enjoy a nature walk in the old growth forest and integrate while looking out at the ocean backdrop. We will take a deep dive into the parts of you that feel stuck and are unable to move forward in your life. Using modalities that work together with Psilocybin Therapy, sound healing, shadow work and integration - we will gently guide you back to a place within of inner peace, joy and clarity.

With 7 years experience, a 5 star retreat experience track record and a 95% success rate in transformations - we guide you in a very safe, supportive and non judgemental way.

Guided by a former paramedic who has been featured in the docu-series Legacy Makers TV, sharing her success within this field. Arcadia Healing Sanctum has been affiliated with Imperial College of London for the last 4 years and is Psychiatrist recommended. Tara has walked the same path and rebuilt her life from burnout and breakdown, this retreat offers a space where the masks come off and the true healing begins.

“I have been there. For the last five years of my nine-year paramedic career, I simply existed—living in pure exhaustion, battling clinically diagnosed PTSD, depression, and anxiety. I didn’t even know what joy felt like—I was flat. I walked your path, but I was able to transform myself from rock bottom and rise."

I have been a part of the Canadian team that was able to gain the first legal access to Psilocybin Therapy for end-of-life destress and have become a very vocal Psilocybin Advocate. I am currently a Certified Clinical Hypnotist, Certified Natural Health Practitioner, Author, Speaker, and cast member of a docu-series streaming on TV platforms, for my success with clients in the field of mental health.

I welcome you into a space in which I have trained to use the same modalities that transformed my own mental health in an open and safe space of tranquility.”

— Tara Portelli (Former PCP) CCh CNHP

Enlightening and Life Changing

My personal three-day retreat with Tara/Arcadia Healing Sanctum was tremendously enlightening and significantly lifechanging.

I experienced an acute awakening of my true and authentic self. I have finally been able to clearly understand and begin to deal with historical trauma and move forward with a healthy and healed soul.

I feel an incredible bond with Tara; her insight and facilitation of all of my experiences while in Tulum have not only broadened my spiritual beliefs but have given me a new outlook and lease on life. I feel alive and so optimistic as I continue to grow and "do the work" to lead a healthy and productive existence.

The magical medicine as well as the deep integration and activities provided by Tara essentially saved my life. The journey is not one that I will ever forget or ever not be grateful to have experienced.

When used under the guidance of Tara, along with surrendering and trusting the medicine, self-healing is inevitable. My mind has been fully opened, and I am staggeringly excited for all that is now on the horizon. I believe in ME again; and am filled with gratitude and love for what Tara has given me.

I can't say enough positive things about my experience with Tara and highly recommend her for an incomparable adventure which has given me back genuine happiness.

A Life Changing Experience
I did a 5-day psilocybin retreat in Tulum with Tara at the end of June. It was the most amazing experience, all that I had hoped for and more. What Tara and the medicine helped me see is absolutely life-changing. I could trust her with my innermost thoughts and feelings, and with her skill, compassion, and guidance, I worked through issues that had kept me from really living my life for many years. My daily "waking up and dreading the day" has disappeared. I feel calm and peaceful, and so much better about myself. I'm able to let go of negative thought patterns. I used marijuana daily for years for anxiety and depression, and since returning from Tulum, have no desire or need for it! I'm amazed! I now have new tools for coping.
I've told all of my friends and family about this wonderful experience, and I would recommend Tara and this retreat to everyone!
The villa, the chef and the incredible food, the massages, the sound healing, the day at the cenote were all awesome!

Thank you Tara - you are love and light and beauty. You changed my life, and I will forever be grateful.
