Course Provider
Founded by Dr. Stephanie Van Hope, RN, DNP—a veteran of NYU's psilocybin cancer anxiety study—Nursing & Sacred Medicine offers the only extensive online course platform on psychedelic therapy designed specifically for nurses, blending sacred medicine traditions, current clinical science, and holistic nursing practice. Their self-paced and interactive courses aim to cultivate a psychedelic nursing community and prepare nurses at all practice levels.
Nursing & Sacred Medicine is a niche, values-led offer in an early and lightly formalised corner of psychedelic education. It is best for nurses who want an introductory bridge between sacred medicine traditions, current clinical science, and a holistic nursing lens, rather than for someone seeking a formal academic pathway. Its strongest credentialing signal is founder Stephanie Van Hope’s nursing background and direct involvement in NYU’s psilocybin cancer anxiety project; the programme is also shaped by a community-oriented, spiritually attentive ethos.
Best for nurses at all levels of practice who want an introductory grounding in psychedelic therapy from a nursing perspective. It can also suit non-nurses with relevant interest, though the content is clearly built around nursing practice.
No formal prerequisite, licensure requirement, or entry condition is published for the self-paced course. The provider states that nurses at all levels are appropriate and that non-nurses with relevant interest are welcome to join.
The provider does not publish nursing CE/CME approval, formal accreditation, or an externally recognised certification for this course. It is presented as an introductory online course rather than a regulated professional qualification.
The self-paced course is listed at $175 regular price. The course includes three modules, each with an introductory video, PowerPoint presentation, three to four readings or viewings, and written online discussions; the provider also says 10% of proceeds will be donated to organisations supporting Indigenous communities and communities harmed by the war on drugs.
Learners complete an introductory understanding of sacred medicine traditions, current clinical science, and the role of holistic nursing in psychedelic care. The course is also framed as a foundation for further study and future training in psychedelic integration therapy for nurses, with a stronger sense of community and practice language.
