EPIC Healing Eugene & Radiant Heart Consulting specializes in supporting individual clients and small groups in their healing and transformational experiences. We also offer retreats. We offer facilitated psilocybin therapy sessions that support clients in making a deeper connection with themselves and the psilocybin, the primary teacher and guide.

Our Healing Space (please visit our website for pictures of EPIC & contracted Portland location).

EPIC Healing Eugene's private courtyard is attached to our Garden Room, where clients can enjoy some time in nature. We are thankful to provide outdoor space to our clients, who come for a session in EPIC Healing Eugene’s Garden Room. Clients also appreciate that the Garden Room (and our Hummingbird Room) has private bathroom access.

The spiritual meaning of Squirrel represents resourcefulness, adaptability, playfulness, organization, trust, preparation, and foresight. "If you have the squirrel in your life, it means that you are about to come into a time of personal growth and change." ~ spiritanimal.info

Testimonial from the Sleepy Squirrel - EPIC is a Safe Space 🌟

When a little red squirrel started coming to the EPIC Courtyard to sleep in the mossy trunk of “Druid” the tree during some of our client’s sessions, we were amazed. Hours would go by, and it would peacefully sleep, occasionally opening an eye to take a peek. All the while, our clients were engaged in their deep psilocybin experience. All we could think of is the squirrel must feel very safe to do that. That is the safe feeling we try to provide all of our clients. We know the safer and more relaxed a client can feel, they will be able to open their hearts and minds to their healing journey more, and to what psilocybin may help them discover, on their path to wholeness. 🦋

Cozy and safe, clients describe our Hummingbird Room as having its own magic and special energy. Our recliners are also comfortable options, in both the Garden and Hummingbird Rooms.
