Allies in Practice: Community, Support, and Shared Wisdom

At Upaya, psychedelic integration is offered as a specialized, supportive practice that bridges non-ordinary experiences with the broader framework of lived philosophy and somatic resilience. Grounded in professional crisis intervention training and advanced harm reduction preparation, this work helps individuals translate insights into daily life. Beyond direct client support, I proudly serve on the advisory board of the Psychedelic Yoga Research Collective and actively champion the vital work being done by fellow integration specialists across the field.

The PYRC is a third path, alongside clinical research and traditional ceremony. We develop and refine body-mind practices that support psychedelic healing — working from direct experience and sustained practice, and bringing what experienced practitioners know into reach for clinicians and the people they serve.

Philip Vergo Haunhorst has walked the path of Psychedelic Actualization for over a decade — and now helps others do the same. His 1:1 coaching offers a grounded, honest space to integrate psychedelic experiences and embody spiritual insights in daily life. He supports clients in deepening their self-actualization and self-realization — empowering them to live their truth, move with clarity, and create a life aligned with who they truly are. He holds space and acts as a mirror — reflecting their highest potential back to them in a safe, non-judgmental container. You can book a clarity call with Philip to know more by clicking here.
