Susan Manville, DHEd

As a psychology professor with over two decades of experience specializing in human development and health behavior change, Susan Manville brings a profound understanding of the human mind to her work as a psychedelic facilitator. She holds a doctorate in health education from A.T. Still University, a master’s in family and community wellness from the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point, and successfully completed her didactic training and practicum for psychedelic facilitation in Oregon, the first state to establish a licensed training program for legalized psychedelic therapy. Additionally, she has earned certificates in end-of-life psychedelic care and the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) for complex developmental trauma.

Her approach to psychedelic facilitation is deeply informed by her personal journey as a deaf individual navigating the hearing world. Although she communicates using speech and lip-reading, her familiarity with feeling like an outsider fuels her commitment to cultivating a non-judgmental space where every client feels safe, fully seen, and completely accepted.

Susan is dedicated to staying current with the latest studies and evidence-based practices within the rapidly evolving field of psychedelic science. This ensures that clients receive the safest and most effective experience possible, meticulously tailored to their specific intentions and preferences. She provides clients with thorough education throughout the entire process, fostering confidence as they begin their journey toward self-discovery and embodied authenticity.
