Psychedelic Integration for People in Recovery

Recovery’s Remedy is open to people at any point on their recovery path with drugs, alcohol, and problematic behaviors.

We seek a model of recovery that feels in alignment for us. We seek to expand into right relationship with the plants, chemicals, and behaviors that have at times harmed, enhanced, and complicated our lives.

Right relationship is about opening up, yielding, being vulnerable, trusting yourself and your community to support the loosening of conceptual frameworks and rigidity that lead to suffering.

Does sobriety & abstinence equal recovery and healing? These questions are at the heart of inquiring into right relationship.

This gathering was created to offer support for people who already have an active healing process around their addiction and are looking for a community to share it with and get support from.

While it's not required that everyone be sober or abstinent from all substances, it is asked that everyone attending the group not be actively engaging with whatever substance that triggers the addictive behavior.

The intention for this monthly meeting is to give everyone a confidential and safe space to discuss their personal recovery path openly and build community.

Meet Your facilitators

Elizabeth and Julio have been collaborating at the intersection of addiction recovery and psychedelics since 2021. Together they have offered continuing education to clinicians, taught at graduate school programs, and created community spaces for people to experience support around psychedelics and addiction. Their vision is to continue growing the movement of people in recovery who use plant medicines to further their healing process.


  • Co-Creator

    Elizabeth Hoke is a person in long term recovery.  She is a mother of three and a therapist who has spent over a decade supporting people personally and professionally while they navigate addiction challenges.  Elizabeth began her own addiction journey at a very early age, and had a hard time staying in recovery, never feeling belonging in the treatment groups available.  She helped co-created Recovery Remedy to give people a non-judgmental place they could go that would allow them to design and share their recovery journey without shame or guilt and without being ostracized for not doing what others do for their recovery.  Elizabeth has also spent many years co-facilitating ketamine-assisted psychotherapy sessions at Rainfall Medicine where they specialize in addiction treatment, and currently teaches psychedelic education classes that focus on addiction and recovery at the Center of Community Engagement at Lewis and Clark College. 


  • Co-Creator

    Julio specializes in working with people navigating addiction recovery. He has served in community mental health centers, residential treatment centers, and has over a decade of experience supporting people in all stages of recovery. His approach is informed by somatic therapies, nervous system regulation, and the development of right relationship.
