Train at Denovo Therapy
We are proud to offer training and educational opportunities for local and traveling medical, psychotherapy, and business professionals. If you are local or interested in intensive training with us, please reach out through the form below. Please know that in order to ensure the quality of the educational environment, we limit the number of trainees and training events commensurate with our bandwidth.
Locally, we train therapy students of all types: interns, practicum, associates, and PhD candidates. We also host elective rotations for physician residents from Texas Tech Health Sciences Center. We train local licensed professionals to be a part of our psychedelic care network in the region.

We also host intensive training sessions traveling for medical, psychotherapy, and business professionals. Each training is customized to fit the team capabilities and psychedelic scaffolding needs of the trainees. Our trainings can be as short as 2 days or as long as a week. They contain formalized and didactic material. However, we take a student-led pedagogical approach and adjust the material based on the internal wisdom of the learner. Common topics include:
- What is the psychedelic model of care?
- Medical and psychotherapeutic mechanisms of action for ketamine.
- Comparisons of ketamine to other psychedelics.
- Psychotherapeutic model offerings and restrictions to psychedelic care.
- Psychedelic Ethics, including when medical and psychotherapy ethics contradict.
- Medical model offerings and restrictions to psychedelic care.
- Trauma-informed care.
- Creating a container: Set and Setting.
- Ceremony and Ritual.
- Illicit vs Therapeutic use of mind-altering substances.
- Systemic abuse in traditional mental health and medical systems and their effects on patients, clients, and staff.
- Operational models to mitigate abuse and stay focused on the heart.
- Logistical and legal obstacles to delivering care.
- Pros and cons for various psychedelic clinic infrastructure options.
- Considerations for regional differences and phenomenology.
- Recruiting a cross-disciplinary team.
- Working in cross-disciplinary collaborative models, aka community practice.

Because the psychedelic model of care requires and demands personal psychedelic experiences, all of our trainings include a patient relationship with the clinic with options for personal and group experiences. All potential trainees must pass a screening, history, and physical, and demonstrate an indication for treatment. Guests also have options to shadow various aspects of clinic operations and practice performing sessions and procedures.
Below is a sample itinerary from a training. Note that your visit with us would look completely different. If you are interested in a training retreat, contact me or reach out to the clinic for more information.
