ABOUT INNERTREK:
Founded in 2021 by Tom Eckert, InnerTrek emerged from the visionary work of Tom and his late wife, Sheri Eckert, pioneers in the movement to legalize psilocybin therapy. Beginning in 2015, they worked toward a state-regulated model for the safe and ethical use of psilocybin mushrooms, culminating in the passage of Oregon’s Measure 109 in 2020—the nation’s first legal framework for psilocybin therapy and licensure. Following Sheri’s passing in late 2020, Tom founded InnerTrek to honor her legacy and continue their shared mission.
Supported by a committed team of educators and clinicians, InnerTrek works to provide thoughtful, high-quality psilocybin facilitator training in Oregon and Colorado. Learn more and apply at http://innertrek.org.
