A Legal, Supported Way to Process Deep Pain in Oregon

Grief isn’t something we fix—it’s something we carry. Whether you’re grieving the death of a loved one, a major life transition, or the loss of a dream or identity, the pain can feel overwhelming, disorienting, and lonely.

At Vital Reset in Hood River, Oregon, we offer legal, supported psilocybin experiences to help people move through grief—not around it. Psilocybin won’t take away your loss. But it may soften the edges, bring clarity, and help you reconnect with meaning, love, and life.

Why Psilocybin?

Grief touches not only the heart but also the nervous system. Many people find themselves stuck in cycles of numbness, despair, anxiety, or self-blame. Psilocybin may help open a space to feel what’s been buried—and allow healing to begin.

Research and client experiences suggest psilocybin may help by:

  • Softening emotional resistance and avoidance

  • Bringing a sense of connection with the lost person or lost aspect of self

  • Reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression related to grief

  • Supporting spiritual insight and meaning-making

  • Facilitating forgiveness, acceptance, and reconnection

Scientific Research

One survey of more than 360 bereaved individuals who used psychedelics—including psilocybin—found significant reductions in grief symptoms.

Other studies suggest psilocybin may help reduce suffering and support emotional resolution, especially when loss is traumatic or unresolved. While the research is still emerging, the stories we hear from clients echo these findings: psilocybin can create space for both sorrow and healing to coexist.

What to Expect at Vital Reset

Grief is not linear, and neither is the healing process. Our approach is personalized and spacious, allowing you to explore at your own pace.

Step 1: Free Consultation
We begin with a phone call to learn more about your story and explore whether this is the right time and setting for you.

Step 2: Preparation
You’ll meet with a licensed psilocybin facilitator to clarify intentions, prepare emotionally, and create a safe container for your experience.

Step 3: Psilocybin Journey
Held in a private, supportive space in Hood River, your journey unfolds with a facilitator present throughout—offering calm, steady guidance.

Step 4: Integration
Afterward, we meet again to reflect, connect your experience to your grief process, and help you carry insights into daily life.

Grief Takes Many Forms

We’ve supported clients grieving:

  • The death of a partner, child, parent, or friend

  • Estrangement or loss of relationship

  • Chronic illness, identity loss, or role changes

  • Aging and mortality

  • The collective grief of ecological or cultural collapse

Some losses are fresh. Others are decades old. All are welcome here.

A Client Perspective

“I didn’t know how much I was holding until I felt it in that room. Psilocybin didn’t make me forget my grief—it let me feel it without being swallowed by it.”
— Melissa

Grief Is Not a Disorder

Your sadness is not a sign that something is wrong with you. It’s a sign that something mattered. Psilocybin may help you feel that truth fully—and then, gently, when you’re ready, allow it to move.

Closing

If you’re carrying grief, you don’t have to carry it alone. Psilocybin can be a gentle companion, helping you reconnect with love, meaning, and life itself.
