A Safe, Supported Way Forward
Anxiety and depression can be relentless. They distort our thinking, numb our joy, and make even small tasks feel overwhelming. At Vital Reset in Hood River, we offer legal, supported psilocybin experiences in Oregon for people who are ready to try something different—something deeper.
Many of our clients come after years of struggling with mood symptoms. They’ve tried medications, talk therapy, self-help, and mindfulness practices. Some of those tools helped. Some didn’t. But nothing quite got to the root.
And yet, psilocybin isn’t a quick fix. But in a safe, well-supported setting, it can open the door to profound insight, emotional relief, and lasting change.
Why Psilocybin?
In clinical trials, psilocybin has shown remarkable results in reducing symptoms of both anxiety and depression—especially when combined with careful preparation and integration afterward.
Research suggests psilocybin may help by:
-
Increasing brain connectivity and neuroplasticity
-
Creating a shift in perspective or self-awareness
-
Reducing rumination and self-criticism while increasing self-compassion
-
Enhancing emotional openness and flexibility
-
Supporting a sense of meaning, connection, and renewal
For many, this shift feels like a deep breath after years of holding it in.
Research on Psilocybin and Mood Disorders
Dozens of peer-reviewed studies support psilocybin’s potential to ease depression, anxiety, and existential distress:
-
Johns Hopkins University: In a study with patients facing advanced cancer, a single high dose of psilocybin produced large decreases in depression and anxiety, with benefits lasting at least six months.

NYU Langone Health: Researchers reported that a single psilocybin session provided lasting relief from anxiety, depression, and existential distress in cancer patients. Benefits persisted six months later and were confirmed in follow-ups up to 4.5 years.

These findings echo what many clients experience: psilocybin may offer not just symptom relief, but a new relationship with the self.
