Mission-driven therapy organization and training institute specializing in Psychedelic Somatic Interactional Psychotherapy (PSIP) — a highly relational, embodied model designed to pair with ketamine and cannabis for treating complex developmental trauma. Runs small-cohort apprenticeship trainings (3 students) for licensed clinicians and allied health professionals internationally.
Psychedelic Somatic Institute sits in the clinician-facing end of the psychedelic training field, with a clearly niche somatic and relational emphasis rather than a broad, marketable curriculum. It appears strongest for experienced therapists who want an apprenticeship-style model and are comfortable working experientially, including their own material, rather than for newcomers wanting a simple certificate. The institute’s lineage is fairly explicit, with Saj Razvi as founder and key PSIP developer, and faculty bios pointing to a mix of psychotherapy, somatic, attachment, and trauma-training backgrounds. Reputation signals are mixed in the wider ecosystem: the site presents a serious, specialist programme with research and publications, but some independent discussion online is informal and polarised rather than authoritative.
Best for licensed or otherwise clinically trained practitioners, and mental-health oriented professionals with real client work under their belt, who want advanced training in a highly relational psychedelic somatic model. It is less suited to the general public, beginners, or those looking for a retreat-style introduction.
The site says applicants are generally expected to have a graduate-level mental health degree or equivalent certification in a therapy-oriented modality, licensure or certification in that field, and at least two years of client work in a mental health context. It also recommends having an existing therapist relationship, and Part C expects practice exchanges with cohort members and, later, possible work with volunteers or clients.
The site states it provides a Certificate of Completion based on attendance, participation, and a case study presentation. It says it provides two types of certifications, but the public FAQ excerpt only clearly describes the Certificate of Completion; the material retrieved does not show formal accreditation, licensing-board approval, or a universally recognised CE/CME claim. The FAQ also says a Colorado licensing board investigator reviewed the programme and noted it did not violate state mental health statutes, but that is not the same as accreditation.
Public pricing on the training page lists Part A at $3,899 USD, Part B at $1,949.50 USD, Part C at $2,400 USD, and optional Part D observation at $1,500 USD. The site says payment plans are available, no accommodation is provided for Part A, and some non-local Part A trainings carry an extra travel fee of $400 to $1,000, with Europe listed separately at an additional $1,000 non-local training fee.
Learners are said to leave with a Certificate of Completion if they meet attendance and case-study requirements, plus practical fluency in PSIP elements. The broader intended outcome is competency in a somatic, attachment-informed psychedelic therapy model, with supervised practice, theory, and observation components that can support clinical integration into a therapist’s practice.
