The Enlightened Esquire

In 2024 I enrolled in the Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS).

I was already practicing law in this field, and I was already advising facilitators and clinic operators. The training wasn’t a credentialing exercise.

It was a practical decision; I had been counseling people whose work I understood from the outside. I wanted to understand it from the inside.

Now, I read facilitator agreements differently. I structure religious-use organizations differently, and I draft estate plans for practitioners differently.

The truth is that legal consequences flow from the clinical reality. The clinical reality is what most attorneys cannot see.
