Course Provider
Mind Medicine Australia is a national nonprofit that has played a defining role in Australia's regulated psychedelic-access environment. Its public work spans rescheduling advocacy, implementation support, clinician training, patient support funding, and ongoing efforts to broaden access pathways. Although it is broader than a pure patient group, it is too important to leave out of Blossom's access map. The organization now reports active involvement in regulatory follow-through, rollout improvements, patient support, and collaboration with End Wise on palliative-care expansion.
Mind Medicine Australia is a serious, field-shaping Australian nonprofit rather than a generic wellness school. Its training sits close to the centre of the country’s regulated psychedelic rollout, with CPAT built for clinicians who want to work in lawful, clinical psychedelic-assisted therapy settings and for teams needing a proper implementation pathway. The organisation has strong lineage in Australian psychedelic policy and practice, and the faculty is presented as international and highly experienced, with Professor David Nutt among the public advocates for the course.
Best for psychiatrists, doctors, psychologists, nurses and other eligible healthcare professionals who want to deliver psychedelic-assisted therapy in clinical settings. The shorter Fundamentals course also suits broader medical and mental health professionals, plus people with lived experience and consumers who want a structured overview.
CPAT is designed for registered healthcare professionals and other eligible practitioners. The provider also expects applicants to complete an application and interview process, sign a Student Code of Conduct, and show that they are suitably qualified for clinical psychedelic work.
CPAT is accredited by the Australian Medical CPD Standard. The provider states it is accredited for 113 hours of Educational Activity and 14 hours of Reviewing Performance for psychiatrists and other medical doctors, and for 127 hours of CPD for psychologists and other healthcare professionals. The Fundamentals course offers a Certificate of Completion and 15 CPD hours, and the provider states the CPAT program is endorsed as professional development by several Australian professional bodies.
CPAT charges a non-refundable application fee of $250 and a course fee of $10,950 on instalments or $9,950 upfront, with GST included. The fee covers online teaching, practical instruction, a residential intensive, assessments, and associated course materials; financial assistance is available for a small number of eligible applicants. The Fundamentals course is priced separately at $599 AUD or £315 GBP, with a $500 credit toward CPAT if learners continue.
Learners leave CPAT with structured training in psychedelic-assisted therapy delivery, including clinical knowledge, practical skills, assessment, role-play and risk management. The programme is positioned as an entry pathway to work in multidisciplinary psychedelic-care teams, and graduates may be listed in MMA’s alumni directory.
