Testimonials

  • I participated in Onaya Science's Psychedelic Preparation & Integration Mentoring training and found it to be so enriching. It met me where I was and provided what I was seeking. When I enrolled, I had been on a multi-year journey of integration from an in-depth experience of working deeply with the sacred plant medicines of an Amazonian Shipibo-Konibo lineage. I had wanted to understand more fully the process of integration that I had been on and this program delivered! I found the content of each lesson to be comprehensive, the guest teachers to be high-caliber, and each lesson is followed up by guidance for buddy homework and whole cohort live calls. This gave me the space to explore the material personally, in relationship with others, and in a group council. I not only learned a lot, I developed trusting and enriching relationships with others in my cohort. I would recommend this wholeheartedly to others looking for that depth and scope of experience.

  • Onaya is doing an awesome job at bringing together both western and indigenous perspectives and practices on a growing topic of interest.

    I have found the course to be interesting, educational and extremely well balanced.

    It uniquely integrates traditional wisdom with modern therapeutic approaches, aligning with my goal to bridge ancestral practices and contemporary health care.

    The instructors create a supportive and inspiring learning environment, and the program has exceeded my expectations with its balance of theory, experiential learning, and practical tools.

  • I found the Onaya course to be a fantastic complement to; and not at all redundant [in relation to] the other trainings I've already completed through ICEERS. It offered an impressive breadth of knowledge, while also providing the opportunity to dive deep into individual topics, and struck an impressive balance given the diversity of experiences represented in our cohort.

  • I chose to do this course for a number of reasons. It is accredited, it was run by two very skilled mental health professionals. It was recommended to me through Psycare Ireland. It far outdid my expectations and allowed me to connect with other like-minded professionals in different corners of the world. It helped me to understand the package of skills that it is beneficial to have for supporting people who are engaging in psychedelic medicine. I feel ready to take on clients to mentor alongside my psychology work.
