Psilocybin services in Oregon are legal only through a licensed Service Center under Measure 109. Other psychedelics (LSD, MDMA, ayahuasca, ibogaine, DMT, etc.) remain illegal under both Oregon and federal law. This page lists licensed Oregon mental-health professionals who provide integration therapy — they support clients metabolizing psychedelic experiences (legal Service Center sessions, ceremonial settings, or past experiences) but do not administer or recommend any controlled substance.
For Oregon Psilocybin Services information, see Oregon Health Authority — Psilocybin Services. If you're considering MDMA-assisted therapy, note that MDMA is currently in FDA review and is NOT an approved or legal treatment.

Most clinicians were never trained for this moment. Now it’s happening in session. A client mentions a recent psilocybin experience through Oregon’s legal services.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about this coverage in Oregon.
What is psychedelic integration therapy?
Integration is the talk-therapy process of making meaning from a psychedelic experience and translating insights into sustained change. It's standard psychotherapy delivered by a licensed mental-health professional — there's no controlled substance involved in the integration session itself. Common approaches: Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic experiencing, depth psychology, trauma-informed therapy. Sessions typically run 50–90 minutes weekly for 4–12 weeks following an experience.
Which psychedelics are legal in Oregon?
Only psilocybin, and only through a licensed Service Center with a licensed Facilitator under the Oregon Psilocybin Services Act (Measure 109, services live since January 2023). Ketamine is FDA-approved Schedule III and can be prescribed off-label by medical providers. All other psychedelics — LSD, MDMA, DMT, ayahuasca, ibogaine, mescaline, 5-MeO-DMT — remain illegal under federal and Oregon law. Possession and use carry real legal consequences regardless of therapeutic intent. MDMA-assisted therapy is in FDA review but not yet approved or legal.
Can I do integration therapy for past experiences I had outside legal channels?
Yes — integration therapists work with clients metabolizing experiences from any context: legal Oregon Service Center sessions, ceremonial / Indigenous traditions, past recreational experiences, or experiences from years ago. The integration work itself is standard talk therapy and is legal everywhere. A trauma-informed therapist won't ask for legal disclosure beyond what helps treatment, and confidentiality protections apply to therapy conversations the same as any other clinical content.
Is psychedelic integration therapy covered by insurance?
Often yes — when delivered by a licensed mental-health therapist for a covered diagnosis (depression, PTSD, anxiety, etc.), integration therapy bills as standard psychotherapy. The administration of any psychedelic substance is separate and typically NOT covered (Spravato esketamine is the exception — it's covered with prior auth).
Who shouldn't pursue psychedelic experiences?
Personal or family history of psychosis, schizophrenia, or bipolar I are common contraindications across all psychedelics. Active substance-use disorders, severe heart conditions, certain medications (SSRIs, MAOIs, lithium can interact significantly with serotonergic psychedelics), pregnancy, and uncontrolled mental health conditions warrant medical screening first. A licensed Oregon Psilocybin Facilitator must conduct a screening session before any administration. Integration therapists also flag concerns; some clients benefit from stabilization work before any psychedelic exploration.
Is this directory recommending psychedelic use?
No. This directory lists licensed Oregon mental-health professionals who provide integration support. Listing a provider does not constitute medical, legal, or therapeutic advice, an endorsement of any psychedelic, or a recommendation that any specific person pursue psychedelic therapy. Psychedelic experiences carry real medical, psychological, and legal considerations, and decisions should be made in close consultation with your healthcare team and (for legal Oregon services) a licensed Facilitator.
