Saba Cooperative
Data updated
United States
Oregon-based 501(c)(3) interfaith cooperative and OHA-approved psilocybin facilitator training organization whose Myco Method program merges interfaith spirituality with psychedelic guidance across 160 hours of in-person, online, and practicum instruction. Saba Cooperative operates under a distributed congregational model as a 508(c)(1)(a) interfaith religious organization, pioneering the integration of cross-cultural spiritual practices, mystical tools, and participant autonomy in legal Oregon psilocybin facilitation training.

Blossom’s read
Saba Cooperative appears to sit at the more explicitly spiritual end of Oregon’s psilocybin-facilitator training field, rather than the more clinically framed schools. Its Myco-Method programme is built around interfaith mysticism, participant autonomy, and a faith-based identity, which may suit people drawn to ceremonial or spiritually oriented facilitation, but it will feel a poor fit for those wanting a more conventional psychotherapy-adjacent curriculum. Independent coverage suggests it has also been contentious with regulators, so it reads as distinctive and mission-driven, but not uncontroversial.
Who Saba Cooperative is for
Best suited to adults seeking a faith-based, spiritually orientated route into Oregon psilocybin facilitation, particularly people comfortable with interfaith practice and self-governed cooperative structures. It is less obviously aimed at clinicians seeking a mainstream professional upskilling pathway.
Prerequisites
According to Myco-Method’s FAQ, applicants must be at least 21 and want to become a faith-based psilocybin facilitator. Public sources reviewed here did not clearly state any licensure, clinical degree, or other professional prerequisite for enrolment, though Oregon licensure rules for facilitators exist separately.
Accreditation & recognition
Myco-Method states it is an Oregon psilocybin facilitator training programme and public reporting says it was approved by the Oregon Health Authority to train facilitators. I did not find evidence in the reviewed sources of academic accreditation, CME, CE credit, or a separate professional body credential beyond the state-approved facilitator training context.
Cost
The FAQ says financial assistance, including sliding-fee scholarships and payment plans, may be available, but it does not give a tuition figure. Independent reporting and social discussion suggest the programme has been described as costing around $5,000 to about $10,000, with one source breaking out a $200 online course, $3,300 for live calls, and $1,500 for residency and practicum including food and lodging. I could not verify a current official price from Saba or Myco-Method’s own public pages.
What you walk away with
Learners are positioned to complete 160 hours of instruction split across online learning, a 10-day in-person residency, and 40 hours of supervised practicum. The intended outcome is preparation for faith-based psilocybin facilitation in Oregon, with competencies in immersive group learning and practicum-based application rather than a conventional therapy credential.
