Many schools advertise an affordable price…
and then quietly add a $3,000 practicum fee later.
That’s not transparency — that’s a trap.

At Emerald Valley Institute, we believe in honesty.
Our tuition is straightforward and all-inclusive.
No hidden practicum fees. No surprise costs.

Because if a school isn’t upfront about something this important,
you have to wonder:
what else aren’t they being honest about?

Train with the program you can trust.

Not only are we an OHA-licensed and HECC-licensed psilocybin facilitator training program, but we also own a licensed psilocybin service center — meaning you’ll never be handed off to another provider (or charged extra) just to finish your required in-person practicum training.

Other programs send you somewhere else to practice.
We built the “somewhere else,” meaning no third-party handoffs to finish your certification and no extra practicum fees.

One school. One pathway. One team guiding you the whole way.

“I Thought It Was Too Good To Be True…” — Student Testimonial 🍄

“I checked out Emerald Valley. After reviewing their website and comparing it with other trainings, not only did the thoughtfulness and detail of the EVI website provide more detail and clarity than other program websites, but the price was a fraction of the cost by comparison.

It seemed a little too good to be true, yet theirs was the only website that seemed to communicate a genuine sense of care and mission, compared to the other programs I looked at — so I took the leap, and I’m glad I did.

While I think overall the differences in the content across most of the training programs is probably negligible, what I found at EVI was something very special and unexpected. I was fortunate to find a team, teachers, and a community of fellow trainees who seemed connected by a thread of authenticity, sincerity, and devotion to not only conduct this work (with psilocybin) with care and reverence, but to do so with a commitment to centering and creating, as best as possible, equitable access to these services across the whole ecosystem.

I also did not expect that the most valuable thing I would take away from this training would be a deep humbleness for my own privileges, a growing awareness of my limitations and biases, an acute understanding of how those privileges and biases impact my work as a facilitator… and a group of folks, trainers and trainees alike, who genuinely feel like family.

I would highly recommend EVI for anyone considering work as a licensed psilocybin facilitator, and I would wholeheartedly encourage anyone brave enough to commit to this path to put their whole heart in it — and to do it in the company of others who have their whole hearts in it. This seems to be the case with Emerald Valley.”

💚 This is why we do what we do.
Authenticity. Accessibility. Community. Equity.
The heart of Emerald Valley.

Did You Know? Psilocybin Mushrooms Contain More Than Just Psilocybin 🍄
Most people talk about psilocybin and psilocin — but fewer people know about the tryptamines naturally found in psilocybin-producing mushrooms and how they contribute to the overall experience.

✨ Tryptamines like baeocystin, norbaeocystin, and aeruginascin occur alongside psilocybin in a wide range of species.
These compounds are part of the same chemical family as serotonin and melatonin, and researchers believe they may influence the tone, quality, and emotional character of a psilocybin session.

Here’s what current research suggests:

🔹 Baeocystin & Norbaeocystin
May produce gentle mood-lifting, clarity, or a more grounded emotional profile. Some early reports suggest they contribute to the “warm” or “heart-opening” qualities people describe.

🔹 Aeruginascin
Found in some species and associated with reduced anxiety and a more euphoric, less dysphoric experience in early case reports.

🔹 The Entourage Effect
Just like botanicals and cannabis, psilocybin mushrooms may produce effects through a synergy of multiple compounds — not just one molecule. This suggests that whole-mushroom experiences can differ significantly from isolated psilocybin.

🌈 Why This Matters
Understanding the full spectrum of tryptamines helps facilitators, researchers, and participants appreciate why different strains or species can feel so distinct, even at similar psilocybin doses.

🍄✨ At Emerald Valley, we’re committed to teaching the science behind these compounds so facilitators are better prepared, more informed, and able to support safe, ethical, and culturally aware experiences.

If you love learning about the chemistry and neurobiology of psilocybin, come train with us — Oregon’s most affordable OHA + HECC-licensed psilocybin facilitator training program.

🎖 Honoring Our Veterans — Today and Every Day 🎖

At Emerald Valley Institute, we honor those who’ve served our country not just with words — but through action, access, and opportunity.

That’s why we’re proud to now accept the Oregon Veteran Educational Bridge Grant, which may cover up to 100% of tuition for qualified Oregon veterans enrolling in our Psilocybin Facilitator Training Program.

This grant helps ensure that veterans who’ve already dedicated their lives to service have an affordable path to continue that mission — supporting others on their healing journeys.
