Alessio Faggioli​ – MA, BSc

I am a registered Psychotherapist and Psychologist, with over 9 years of experience in clinical mental health, substance use, trauma, counselling experience, and 15 years of psychedelic healing
experience. Psychotherapist with in-depth knowledge and training Psychodynamic psychotherapy, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), Psychedelic Assisted Therapies, Mindfulness Based
Therapy (MBT), IFS (Internal Family System) and NeuroAffective Relational Model.

As a Psychotherapist, I learnt and use different approaches among which Transpersonal psychology, Person Centred, Jung, Gestalt, Mindfulness, Existential Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Attachment theory, Complex Trauma, Somatic approach, Character styles, Internal Family System, mentalization, Meditation and Mindfulness approach.

I’ve earned my first bachelor in science 20 years ago. Since then I embarked on a journey to earn my bachelor and accreditation in Psychotherapy in Ireland first and an MA in Psychology in Italy later. In my research I’ve explored the therapeutic potential of psychedelic within clinical settings.

I’ve trained in Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy with the clinic Polaris in San Francisco and I collaborate with PsyOn in Prague, Czech Republic, the first ketamine clinic to open in Europe.

My interest in expanded states of consciousness began more than 20 years ago when I was introduced to meditation and the use of psychedelics.
My long depression led me to travel and live in South America and be initiated into the practice of psilocybin mushrooms in Huautla de Jiménez, in the lineage of Maria Sabina.

Meditation, psychotherapy and psychedelic therapy are my world and my way of living. My mission is supporting people who decide to embark on a similar pathway.
