Psychedelic Guidance & Integration Coaching
Explore Psychedelics with Holistic Support
Psychedelics can be powerful tools for discovery, healing, and growth—but navigating these experiences can feel overwhelming, especially without proper support. That's where we come in.
We offer confidential, holistic guidance and coaching for anyone seeking to explore psychedelics intentionally, safely, and with respect. Whether you're looking to prepare for a life-changing journey, make sense of an experience, or explore microdosing, we're here to provide experienced support every step of the way.
Our support is not therapy and we are not therapists—but we are academic psychedelic researchers, with experience, who believe in the power of intentional psychedelic exploration for healing, growth, and self-discovery. We offer compassionate, informed guidance grounded in holism—a combination of scientific research, ancient wisdom and personal experience. Our goal is to help you navigate psychedelics, gain the insights you seek and fully integrate them into your life.
How we can support you:
Microdosing guidance: Learn to use microdosing mindfully for enhanced wellbeing and deeper connection.
Preparation and integration coaching: Get personalized support to prepare for your upcoming journey or to integrate lessons, insights, and emotions after your psychedelic experience.
Navigating a spiritual emergency: If you're feeling overwhelmed after a challenging or powerful spiritual experience, we’re here to help you stay grounded, find meaning, and move forward with compassion and resilience.
Getting started: Not sure if psychedelics, a specific ceremony, or psychedelic therapy is right for you or your loved one? We’ll help you navigate your options with clarity and care.
Expert and holistic knowledge: Tap into our extensive and holistic knowledge of psychedelic science, legal frameworks, traditional and shamanic use, clinics, retreats, and qualified therapists or guides.
Contraindications and safety: Get help navigating potential pharmaceutical interactions or health considerations related to psychedelic use.
Vetting and choosing: Whether you’re considering a retreat, clinic, or specific facilitator, we can guide you to make the most informed decision for your journey.
Why work with Psygaia?
Deep expertise: Our team brings together insights from modern science, indigenous practices, and lived experience. We understand these journeys deeply and are committed to supporting you with integrity and compassion.
Holistic approach: We don’t just focus on the psychedelic experience itself—we help you connect the dots between your intentions, experience, and real-life healing and growth.
Personalized support: Every journey is unique, and our coaching reflects that. You’ll receive one-on-one support that’s fully tailored to your needs, aspirations, and concerns.
Judgment-free space: We honour your path, and we're here to listen. Whatever your questions, goals, or hesitations, you can feel confident knowing that our conversations are safe, confidential, and rooted in compassion.
Our approach is rooted in our philosophy and the understanding that healing and growth with psychedelics is a multidimensional journey with ripples that reach far beyond the individual. While we guide and facilitate integration, we know that you are in charge of this deep process. We encourage self-responsibility, honouring your sovereignty as we share our experience-based wisdom. Our role is not to impose beliefs but to support your unique journey of discovery, growth, and healing through intentional inquiry.
Sessions are charged on a sliding scale for a minimum of $60/hr.

Louis Belleau
Louis discovered the spiritual, therapeutic and transformative potential of psychedelics when he was 17, which led him to study Zen Buddhism, yogic philosophy, and indigenous nature-based traditions, and graduate from McGill University with majors in Psychology, Philosophy and Comparative Religion. Motivated and guided by his belief that psychedelic experience is a basic human right with important biological functions for the human organism and the planet, Louis seeks to democratize informed and responsible access to psychedelics through interdisciplinary research, reciprocal community, and holistic education and support services. Louis is the founder of Psygaia, contributed to the early development of Nectara’s integration program and is currently studying psychedelics from an interdisciplinary perspective at the University of Ottawa with the aim of pursuing a Master’s degree in Psychedelics & Consciousness Studies while completing his Psygaia hypothesis. As a trained and certified yoga and breathwork teacher, Louis currently teaches yoga, mindfulness meditation and conscious connected breathwork privately, at retreats, at the Paradise Valley Healing Centre, the Conscious Minds Clinic, and the Cedar Rock Centre in BC, Canada. In his free time, Louis loves backcountry skiing, trail running, writing, gardening, teaching, designing and learning ethnobotany.
