Psilocybin for Healthcare Burnout: The 2024 JAMA Study Breakdown

If you're a healthcare worker experiencing burnout, this December 2024 study shows what's possible. A single psilocybin session in a therapeutic setting helped frontline clinicians recover from depression, with benefits lasting at least six months.

I'm Coeli, founder of Entheogen Institute. As a licensed facilitator, I’m seeing firsthand how this work is moving from "experimental" to a grounded, professional reality in Oregon and Colorado.
