A Psychedelic Retreat Perfect for Creatives Seeking Breakthroughs, Clarity, and Adaptability

A Place to Think Differently

At Eleusinia, we welcome those who create for a living – or who feel driven to create, even when no one is watching. Our guests include writers, musicians, designers, filmmakers, performers, and innovators across fields. What they share is the hunger for insight and originality. And increasingly, the need for adaptability in a world that’s changing faster than ever.

This is a psychedelic retreat for creatives who are ready to step out of routine and into something deeper. It’s not about spectacle or distraction. It’s about mental space and emotional clarity.

The Creative Landscape Is Shifting

AI hasn’t just changed the tools, it’s changed the terrain. In a world where software can mimic the mechanics of creativity, the real edge lies in what machines still can’t replicate: taste, intuition, vulnerability, vision. These qualities live in the parts of the brain that psychedelics tend to unlock.

Psilocybin and DMT have been shown to:

  • Boost cognitive flexibility, helping you make novel connections across ideas and disciplines.
  • Disrupt creative ruts, giving your brain room to reframe stuck narratives and stale solutions.
  • Lower ego resistance, encouraging more open exploration and risk-taking without self-censorship.
  • Enhance emotional insight, deepening the meaning behind the work and the way it connects with others.

At Eleusinia, these benefits are supported by a setting designed to let them flourish.

Creativity Needs Conditions, Not Chaos

This is not a party. It’s not a scene. This is a psychedelic retreat perfect for creatives who need stillness, stimulation, and safety in equal measure. We’re located in the mountains, where the weather is mild and the distractions are minimal. You’ll stay in a space that invites quiet breakthroughs, not loud disruptions.

Our retreat includes guided sessions, optional group dialogue, and time to walk, write, sketch, or simply sit. And it all happens on a functioning mushroom farm, where you can literally see where your insights are cultivated.

Among Peers, Not Performers

We don’t traffic in forced intimacy or awkward group shares. You’ll meet people who are asking similar questions – about their work, their lives, their next chapter. Some are longtime professionals, others are mid-shift. But all are creatives who value authenticity over polish. You don’t need to “network.” You need space to explore.

Safety as a Creative Enabler

We keep medical staff on site 24 hours a day. That’s not a detail. It’s a foundation. When your mind is free to wander without fear, the ideas that matter most tend to surface. Eleusinia balances the science of safety with the art of deep work.

Pablo Coddou

Pablo is a licensed psychotherapist drawing from Gestalt, Humanistic-Existentialism, and Buddhist principles to offer a grounded, embodied approach to personal growth, healing, and self-discovery.

He earned his Master’s in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology from Naropa University in 2010 and has maintained a full-time private practice in Vermont for the past decade, working with clients across a wide range of ages and circumstances, from adolescents to seniors, including veterans, couples, and families, through both in-person and telehealth sessions.

In 2022, Pablo returned to Naropa to complete certification in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy through their MAPS program, focusing on the ancient spiritual traditions and modern science-backed benefits of psychedelics, and on the role of guide and integration therapist in supporting their healing potential. Since then, he has dedicated his practice to working skillfully and compassionately with altered states of mind in service of transformation, self-determination, and empowerment.

Born to immigrant parents and raised between New York City and Chile, Pablo identifies as Latino with indigenous Araucanian roots alongside European heritage. He has traveled extensively across Europe, South and Central America, Asia, and Africa, and is trilingual in English, Spanish, and French.

Pablo brings more than 25 years of study and practice in Buddhist meditation, martial arts, breathwork, and neuroscience, and facilitates workshops across these modalities in diverse community settings throughout the Americas. Outside the therapeutic space, he competes in Spartan races, participates in psychedelic community gatherings, and trains alongside his wife and daughter in the Vermont valley he calls home.
