How do I enroll in a Mindscape certification program?

Live certifications follow a 4-step process: Apply, reserve your seat with a deposit, complete a fit interview, then finalize tuition after acceptance. Certifications are cohort-based immersions with 6 months of live training plus an additional 6 months of optional mentorship.

How do I enroll in a Mindscape masterclass?

Evergreen masterclasses are flexible and self-paced. Choose your masterclass, enroll instantly, start anytime at your pace, and revisit lessons as needed. No interview or application required.

What is the difference between a certification and a masterclass?

Certifications are high-commitment, cohort-based programs with 6 months of live training, plus optional mentorship, case supervision, and an interview process. Masterclasses are shorter, self-paced courses you can begin anytime for focused upskilling.

How do I know which training path is right for me?

Book a fit call for personalized guidance from Mindscape faculty, or review the application guide before reserving your seat. Certifications are best for deep professional development; masterclasses are best for flexible, focused upskilling.

Our Origin

We built this because we saw too many programs that looked good on paper but fell apart in practice.

Two things matter: someone who can hold space for deep work, and someone who understands trauma. That's why the training has both.

Faculty and Clinical Direction

Lead Instructor

Stephan Kerby

Co-Founder & Lead Instructor

My personal healing journey through entheogens opened the path to profound transformation and awakened a lifelong dedication to helping others do the same. This work began with the founding of a visionary initiative and has evolved into a mission to make psychedelic facilitation safer, more embodied, and trauma-informed.

Training Standards

This isn't abouthow it looks.

It's about how it's structured. Ethics, supervision, practical skill —all built into the experience, not added on.

Core Principle

Ethics built into the curriculum

Consent, boundaries, decision-making, and accountability are part of the training architecture, not a closing module.

Practical Application

Clinical and facilitation relevance

Programs are designed for therapists, physicians, coaches, and guides who need frameworks that hold up in real practice.

Ongoing Support

Mentorship after live training

The certification pathway continues into supervision, case discussion, and post-cohort support so the material becomes operational.

Commitment to Excellence

Standards over shortcuts

Mindscape is explicit about rigor: interviews, deposits, progression, and expectations are visible before someone ever enrolls.

Evidence from Graduates

What graduatessay about the training.

These practitioners completed the full certification. Their feedback speaks to standards, supervision, and professional applicability.

Featured Graduate

“I looked at five other 5-MeO trainings before choosing this one. The difference was the ethics curriculum. It ran through everything, and the alumni group is still the first place I go when I hit a hard case.”

Elena Rodriguez

Integration Coach

“Fifteen years in psychiatry and I almost did not sign up. The safety curriculum changed my mind. It felt unusually rigorous compared with other professional trainings I have experienced.”

Dr. James Patterson

Psychiatrist

“The live training gave me the framework, but the months after, the case discussions and difficult questions from other students, are where the framework became lived practice for me.”
