About the ONCE pathway

ONCE is a professionally supported pathway that combines psilocybin-assisted sessions with psychological preparation and integration.

It is not a treatment for every life transition, and not every difficult period should be medicalised. The pathway is designed to support careful reflection, structured access, professional support and evidence-informed practice.

Everyone begins with a confidential preliminary assessment to help understand your situation and whether this pathway may be appropriate for you.

  • Your situationYou share what has changed, what feels unclear, and what you hope this process might help you understand.
  • Professional reviewQualified clinicians review your summary to consider suitability and risk. You may be invited for a screening conversation.
  • Preparation & in-person daysIf the pathway is appropriate, you continue with preparation, your in-person session in Amsterdam, and integration support afterwards.
  • Integration & follow-upYou are supported in making sense of the experience and relating it back to ordinary life, work, relationships and decisions.
Learn how the pathway works

What may matter here

Not every difficult transition is a condition to treat. Sometimes the more useful question is not whether something is wrong, but what kind of support is appropriate now.

Recent loss, major upheaval, medication, mental-health history and current circumstances can all affect whether this pathway should be considered.

See evidence and sources
Not every difficult transition is a disorder.Some periods of uncertainty, grief or identity change call for time, context and careful review.
A major change can also be a reason to wait.Recent upheaval may mean that another form of support, or more time, is more appropriate before considering this pathway.

Suitability is considered individually. ONCE does not promise a specific outcome.
