What Goes On Inside a Portland Psilocybin Treatment Center?

In 2020, Oregon was the first state in the U.S. to pass a law legalizing psilocybin use at treatment centers. And now there are nearly 300 licensed facilitators across the state and by last year, more than 700 people had already gone through treatment. But what does therapy look like? How much does it cost, and is it really worth it? Today on City Cast Portland, we’re talking with Courtney Campbell, a trained facilitator and founder of Chariot — a Portland-based psilocybin service center — to answer all of our questions concerning this new type of therapy. Events mentioned in today’s episode: The Ladds 500 Saturday at 10 a.m. The Portland Trail Blazers Friday at 7 p.m. The Portland Timbers Saturday at 1:30 p.m. The Portland Winterhawks both Friday (7 p.m.) and Saturday (6 p.m.) The Sip and Shop Pop-up Market at White Owl Social Club Saturday at 4 p.m. Become a member of City Cast Portland today!
