At Vital Reset, we often work with clients who are looking for a skilled, grounded guide to support their psilocybin experience. One of the most trusted facilitators we collaborate with is Matt Wissler—a deeply experienced, trauma-informed, and compassionate presence in Oregon’s legal psilocybin community. Matt brings decades of work in healing, education, and ecological stewardship to each session, offering calm, customized care from start to finish.
A Path Rooted in Healing and Service
Matt’s journey toward facilitation began long before Oregon legalized psilocybin. After personally working with traditional plant medicine practitioners during a time of grief, he was inspired to support others on their path to healing. His background includes work in endangered species recovery, crisis intervention, classroom teaching, and community development. Each of these experiences shaped his unique approach to psilocybin facilitation—an approach grounded in empathy, patience, and deep listening.
Experience That Matters
Matt was among the earliest facilitators to help Oregon service centers launch their programs. He has:
-
Led practicums for psilocybin facilitation students
-
Instructed at the Changa Institute
-
Supported both group and individual journeys
-
Presented at national conferences on psilocybin legalization
- You can find out more at his website.
He holds certifications as an end-of-life doula and is licensed by the Oregon Health Authority.
