Blossom’s read

Third Wave is best understood as a psychedelics education brand that has grown from public-facing media and microdosing content into a more explicit coaching and training offer. Its reputation appears strongest as an accessible, high-volume entry point for consumers and aspiring coaches rather than as a formal clinical educator, with Paul F. Austin as the central public figure and a clear emphasis on intentional, research-informed use. In the field, it sits alongside content-led operators and coaching schools, with more reach and visibility than many niche providers, but less evidence of formal clinical accreditation than therapist-training programmes.

Who Third Wave is for

It seems best suited to curious adults exploring psychedelics for personal development, and to coaches who want to add psychedelic-informed work to an existing practice. It is less obviously aimed at licensed clinicians seeking regulated clinical training.

Prerequisites

For the microdosing and consumer-facing education, no formal prerequisites are stated in the sources reviewed. The Coaching Certification Program appears to require an application/inquiry call process, but no professional licence is described as mandatory in the available pages.

Accreditation & recognition

The sources reviewed do not show formal accreditation by a recognised external accreditor. Third Wave describes a Coaching Certification Program and states that graduates sign an ethics pledge, but the available material does not show CME, CEU or CME/CE credit, nor ICF or similar external accreditation.

Cost

The Coaching Certification Program is listed at a regular price of $10,000, with an early-bird price of $8,000 for the first five students and payment-plan options that can bring the total to $11,000. The microdosing offerings also have paid tiers, including a $199 basic option and a $499 group coaching option in one live cohort offer, with inclusions varying by tier.

What you walk away with

Learners can expect practical education around microdosing, psychedelic coaching, preparation and integration, plus community and coaching support depending on the programme. For the Coaching Certification Program, the intended outcome is a Third Wave coaching certification and training to integrate psychedelic modalities into a coaching practice.
