Our Experienced Team

I am a facilitator because I am passionate about helping people change their lives. I believe healing, transformation, and better emotional and physical health are possible with one psilocybin experience. I am grateful to live in Oregon, a state that allows legal use of plant medicine, and sets regulations for its safe use. This led me to co-found the Ashland Healing Center with my daughter and begin training to be a facilitator.

I raised two daughters as a single parent. My work history led me to The Boeing Company where I spent 38 years and became a technical lead in IT Cyber Security. I loved doing this, as it was constantly new, changing and offered opportunities for new thinking. I led teams to implement company-wide changes. I have always been an avid reader and learner.

I retired in 2013 and began looking for service opportunities. I was a patient visitor for Hospice by the Bay in the San Francisco area. I started a mind-body eating coaching business. I have also been a CASA (court appointed advocate for abused and neglected children). Although good, none of these fully satisfied, and I was looking for more.

Four years ago I became a meditator. I began believing in myself and changing my emotions. Coronary heart disease which I had most of my life is now healed, and I am healthy, vibrant and active at age 80.
I have a deep desire during this critical and often troubled time on earth, when there are hopes for a better world, a greater consciousness, to be part of this change. I have always had an interest in health and wellness, often finding my own paths outside of traditional medicine. I love to help clients experience and achieve their goals whether it’s transformation, healing, or simple joy in living. I will do my best to establish a trust relationship with you and support you safely through the treatment.

For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for caring for others. I have been a registered nurse for 26 years. I love interacting and connecting with people and helping them through difficult times, and I am very good at it.

Over the years I became discouraged with the healthcare establishment and my inability to help people. I learned about psilocybin and was amazed at the research and results – this led me to take my own journey.

After my psilocybin experience I clearly knew that the mushrooms were calling me to share this with the world. I left my nursing career and in partnership with my mother we opened our own psilocybin administration center and I became a licensed facilitator.

I believe whether it be addiction, depression, anxiety, or physical ailments the world needs help now. I feel that I am able to help and it fills my heart when I see clients change their lives with one psilocybin treatment. In my free time I love to spend time with my grandson and fur baby.

Hello there! My name is Coeli, pronounced, “Chay-lee”.  I am the founder and director of Entheogen Institute State Certified Training Program for Psilocybin Facilitators☀️

In addition to being a Psilocybin Facilitator,  I train people who are feeling called to help people in profound ways, using Psilocybin, how to do the work.

I have been assisting people on their healing journeys, utilizing plant medicine, ceremony and altered states of consciousness, for over 30 years. 

I moved to Ashland, Oregon in 2004 as a Licensed Midwife and herbalist,  offering ceremonial blessings to my clients, along with hypnobirthing and trance-inducing techniques to create lasting change.

My work then evolved into a life coach, that utilizes Alchemy Hypnotherapy, NLP, Soul Retrieval, and Constellation Work. Next, I began my own healing journey using plant medicine, mainly psilocybin, which led me to create Entheogen Institute training program, a HECC Licensed and State Certified Facilitation program that I am blessed to be doing today.

I am a non-judgmental, safe practitioner, and I use the best practices from research which includes a client-centered, non-directive approach to Psilocybin.

I hold space in a way that assists you to connect to the wisdom of the mushroom and with your own innate wisdom. Believe me, I have had my own traumas, grief, and challenges that I have ‘befriended’ in my life, using Psilocybin, and I have helped many people in this way.

Psilocybin is one of the most profound and beautiful gifts that are here for us to utilize at these unique times in our lives. 

I am beyond excited that we are in this time and place where we can legally work with Psilocybin. I am even more thrilled to see firsthand the way it is helping people and transforming lives, myself included.  

My mission is to benefit people to be happier, healthier, and more connected to themselves, each other, and the Earth; and psilocybin helps to make my mission quite possible.

My name is Carly and I have always had a calling to help others. I have experience working in a drug and alcohol rehab and have assisted people with autism. I bring warmth and openness to listen in my life and my work. I also provide a compassionate, safe, and judgement free space for people to grow and heal. I relate to the struggle of addiction so I especially want to work with people who identify with that.

Psilocybin has been instrumental in my healing journey by giving me the opportunity to create positive shifts in my life, like lowering my antidepressants and getting to the root of my problems. I have 8 years of abstinence from substances and have 15 years of talk therapy under my belt. I read studies and listened to people’s experiences with psilocybin and witnessed its healing potential. I wanted a change in my own life and psilocybin has been helpful in my mental health journey.
