Course Provider
TheraPsil is a Canadian nonprofit focused on legal access to psychedelic-assisted therapy for people in medical need. Its current public work spans patient navigation, prescriber and therapist training, referrals, and sustained advocacy around federal access pathways. The organization remains one of the clearest Canadian patient-access stakeholders because it links policy work to concrete care pathways. Current materials show active work on Project Solace, ongoing clinician upskilling, and new Manitoba progress around MDMA-assisted therapy.
TheraPsil sits near the serious end of the Canadian psychedelic-training field: a nonprofit with a clear access-and-advocacy mission, a public practitioner network, and training built around regulated care pathways rather than retreat culture. It is best for licensed and allied healthcare professionals who want practical preparation in psilocybin or MDMA-assisted psychotherapy, especially those working with medical need, palliative care, or access navigation. Its lineage is anchored by Dr Ingrid Pacey, Dr Bruce Tobin, and a multidisciplinary committee structure that includes ethics, clinical, and training oversight.
Best for mental health, medical, and allied professionals preparing to work in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, particularly those in Canadian access, palliative, or supportive-care settings. The prescriber courses are for regulated medical prescribers, while broader fundamentals training also welcomes other practitioners with relevant clinical or spiritual-care backgrounds.
Eligibility varies by programme and is based on an interview and review of the applicant’s background, experience, and readiness. Common backgrounds include physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, social workers, naturopathic doctors, paramedics, first responders, death doulas, and recognised spiritual or pastoral counsellors; prescriber designation is limited to regulated medical prescribers in good standing.
TheraPsil says its Fundamentals of Psilocybin-Assisted Psychotherapy has been approved by the Canadian Psychological Association, Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association, and the OPQ for 155 continuing education credit hours. Its Psilocybin Prescriber Training is certified for 8 Mainpro+ CME credits. MDMA programme credit status is listed as pending.
TheraPsil does not publish one single programme price. Psilocybin Fundamentals is listed at $3,600 CAD online or $4,200 to $4,450 CAD in person depending on cohort and timing, with some experiential and supervision components billed separately; MDMA Fundamentals is listed from $3,600 CAD for didactic-only online to $4,999 CAD with experiential learning. Prescriber Training is listed at $350 CAD plus tax, with TheraPsil membership at $400 a year or $40 a month, bringing first-year cost to about $750 plus tax.
Learners are meant to leave with the ability to work within TheraPsil’s clinical protocols, understand the Canadian legal and ethical landscape, assess suitability using intake and inclusion criteria, and support preparation, dosing, and integration. Prescriber learners can also earn a certificate of completion and a public-directory prescriber designation.
