What does working together actually look like?
We prepare together, spend Journey Day together at a licensed Oregon service center, and reconnect afterward for integration.
You do not need to know exactly what you are looking for before we begin.
Book a Free Exploratory CallSometimes you know something needs attention before you know what the answer is.
You may be carrying grief, burnout, uncertainty, a question about identity, a creative block, or simply the feeling that an old way of living no longer quite fits.
Psilocybin can create space to notice things differently — to turn inward, loosen what has become fixed, and become curious about what you are carrying and what wants your attention.
You do not need a perfect intention.
Sometimes the starting point is simply: I want to understand what is here.
A supported psilocybin experience has three parts.
Journey Day is important, but it is only one part of the work we do together.
Before your journey
Preparation is less about coming up with the “right” intention and more about creating trust, context, and safety.
We’ll talk about what is bringing you here, what you have been carrying, what you are curious about, what you may be afraid of, and what you might like to make room for.
We also review logistics, health considerations, medications when relevant, and what will help you feel supported.
The psilocybin experience
Journey Day takes place at a licensed Oregon psilocybin service center.
You can turn inward while I stay alongside you as your facilitator.
Sometimes something becomes clearer. Sometimes grief, memory, fear, joy, beauty, humor, stillness, or unexpected questions come closer.
There is no single “right” psilocybin experience.
After the journey
Integration is not about squeezing a lesson out of every part of your experience.
Some experiences become insights. Some become changes. Some become questions. Some simply need time.
Sometimes integration is less about finding an answer and more about giving the experience time to change form.
I think of this as part of the composting process: noticing what surfaced, turning it over, and seeing what grows.
“I want to invite you.”
An invitation leaves room for choice.
My approach is non-directive. I am not there to lead you toward a particular insight, tell you what your experience means, or decide where the journey should go.
I may offer support, grounding, or invitations when useful, but your experience remains your own.
Curiosity, consent, autonomy, and respect are central to how I work.
There are three separate parts to the cost of a legal psilocybin experience in Oregon.
I want you to understand the full picture before you commit to anything.
Facilitation Fee
This covers our preparation sessions, Journey Day together, and integration sessions afterward.
I offer a sliding scale for my facilitation fee and am happy to work with you around what is realistically accessible for you.
Service Center Room Rental
Journey Day takes place at a licensed Oregon psilocybin service center.
The service center charges separately for the room and use of the facility.
Psilocybin Product
The psilocybin itself is purchased through the licensed service center and is a separate cost.
Product pricing can vary depending on the center and what is selected for your session.
If cost is one of the things making you unsure whether this work is possible, please feel comfortable asking.
My goal is not for the facilitation fee to be the thing that keeps you from exploring this work.
If we feel like a good fit, I’m happy to talk openly about what you can afford and see what we can make work.
Clear communication, grounded support, and room to be yourself.
People often find me when they are at some kind of threshold.
That might mean grief or loss, burnout, anxiety or depression, LGBTQ+ identity, neurodivergence, creative blocks, entrepreneurship, relationship changes, or a major life transition.
I especially enjoy working with women, LGBTQ+ adults, neurodivergent people, creatives, caregivers, leaders, and entrepreneurs.
You do not need to be in crisis to do this work.
Sometimes knowing that something in your life wants attention is enough.
I’m Lisa Snyder.
I’m a state-licensed psilocybin facilitator in Oregon, community builder, and grief-support practitioner.
My approach is grounded in consent, autonomy, curiosity, and non-directive support.
I bring more than 25 years of experience creating communities and supportive spaces, along with lived experience of grief, identity, transition, and reinvention.
More About MeYou do not have to know yet whether this work is right for you.
If you have questions, want to understand the process, or are trying to figure out whether a supported psilocybin experience might be a fit, I’m happy to talk.
We can start there.

We begin with an intake and health screening, followed by 2 preparation calls, your psilocybin journey (micro-dose, low or high dose) at a licensed service center (Oregon), and 2 integration calls to support your process.
OREGON:
At licensed psilocybin service centers in Portland, Oregon.
I work with adults who are seeking healing, clarity, and personal growth—especially those who feel ready for change but aren’t sure where to begin. Many of the people I support are navigating life transitions, emotional challenges, or periods of uncertainty and self-reflection.
I specialize in working with women, entrepreneurs, creatives, and members of the LGBTQ+ community who are exploring identity, burnout, or self-worth. I also support neurodivergent adults and those who are moving through grief, loss, or major shifts in their sense of purpose.
Some people come to this work feeling anxious, depressed, or stuck. Others are seeking spiritual connection, creative inspiration, or a deeper understanding of themselves. Whatever brings you here, I offer a grounded, compassionate space to explore your inner world safely and intentionally.
Preparation includes both logistical and emotional readiness. Together, we will hold 2 prep calls to explore your intentions, discuss safety and set expectations for the journey. You’ll also receive guidance on how to mentally and physically prepare. My role is to help you feel grounded and supported before you step into your session.

1:1 Psilocybin Journeys: Low or high-dose sessions, including prep and integration support.
-
Group Sessions (2 or more people).
Feeling “ready” is deeply personal. Many people come to psilocybin when they feel stuck, are navigating grief, burnout, or life transitions, or are seeking clarity and self-discovery. You may be ready if you feel open to exploring your inner world with support, have curiosity about deepening your self-awareness, or are interested in integrating new insights into your life.
If you’re unsure, we can discuss your intentions during a free exploratory call and decide together if now is the right time.
Integration is the process of making sense of your psilocybin journey and weaving the insights gained into your everyday life. After your session, we’ll have two integration calls where we’ll reflect on your experience, explore emotions or themes that surfaced, and discuss actionable ways to apply your insights. Integration is a vital part of the process—it helps you ground, process, and turn your experience into meaningful, lasting change.
Yes! I am licensed under Oregon’s Measure 109 to facilitate legal psilocybin services and in Colorado to facilitate natural medicine services.
You do not need to live in Oregon to access psilocybin services. To access psilocybin services, you must be 21 years of age or older and participate in a preparation session with a licensed facilitator before you will be able to participate in an administration session (the session when psilocybin is consumed at a licensed service center) and subsequent integration sessions.
1. Psilocybin products are cultivated, produced and/or processed by a licensed manufacturer. They are tracked in a product tracking system.
2. The products are tested by a licensed testing laboratory. The lab must be accredited by the Oregon Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ORELAP). The test results are entered into the product tracking system.
3. The products are sold or transferred from a licensed manufacturer to a licensed service center. This is tracked in the product tracking system.
First, to provide these services, a licensed facilitator must complete:
• A training program with curriculum approved by OPS
• An exam administered by OPS, and
• All other license requirements
After the facilitator is licensed, facilitators can work with clients who are 21 and over and who qualify. A licensed facilitator will help you understand if it is the right time and the right fit for you both.
The client meets with a licensed facilitator for a preparation session. There may be several preparations sessions to get both the client and the facilitator ready for an administration session.
After determining a good fit for both client and facilitator, and administration session is scheduled. The client consumes the product at the service center and begins their session with a licensed facilitator.
The client and the facilitator schedule an integration session for a couple of days out from the psilocybin session. This is a session to follow up with a facilitator and learn about additional peer support and other resources.
Ballot Measure 109 (M109) is also known as the Oregon Psilocybin Services Act. It was voted into law by Oregonians in November 2020. It is codified in Oregon Revised Statutes in ORS 475A. M109 directs Oregon Health Authority (OHA) to license and regulate psilocybin products and the provision of psilocybin services. Oregon is the first state in the U.S. to create a regulatory framework for psilocybin services
In Oregon, “psilocybin services” refers to preparation, administration and integration sessions provided by a licensed facilitator. The psilocybin products consumed must be cultivated or produced by a licensed psilocybin manufacturer and may only be provided to a client at a licensed psilocybin service center during an administration session.
Psilocybin services are available to people age 21 or older and will not require a prescription or medical referral. People accessing psilocybin services are called “clients”.
Research suggests psilocybin may help address depression, anxiety, trauma and addiction. Studies have also found it can increase spiritual well-being. To learn more about the research on psilocybin benefits and risks, see the 2021 Oregon Psilocybin Advisory Board Rapid Evidence Review. It is available in English and Spanish.
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound. It is found in over 200 species of fungi (mushrooms). For centuries Indigenous and Tribal communities around the world have used psilocybin for spiritual, ceremonial and other purposes. Psilocybin services will soon be an option in Oregon. However, psilocybin is still a Schedule I substance under the Federal Controlled Substances Act.
