What our callers and clients are saying

  • “There are times I just need someone to talk to, and I trust the people in Fireside, they tend to have an open mind, to handle what comes up for me.”

    SUPPORT LINE CALLER

  • "My coach is awesome. Empathetic, eloquent, and such an insightful listener. I feel comfortable sharing embarrassing stuff and am confident they can help me with whatever I bring to our sessions. They keep guiding me back to my true priorities and finding patterns in the noise. It’s a gift."

    COACHING CLIENT

  • “Not the first time I’ve called and probably won’t be the last. This service is invaluable for anyone interested in taking psychedelics, and especially those who are taking them alone or with a trip sitter who may need their own support to support you.”

    SUPPORT LINE CALLER

  • "My coach was excellent at helping me with preparation. It was our first meeting and I kind of just 'dumped' and felt all over the place. They were very good about keeping cohesion and focus and setting intentions for the day of the journey. I felt very safe with them."

    COACHING CLIENT

  • “I’m telling everyone I know! I’m lucky that I remembered hearing about it. I feel more people need to have this in their back pocket.”

    SUPPORT LINE CALLER

  • “I needed to chat through the experience with someone who wasn't part of my immediate circle or who knew me. The anonymity allowed me to open up in ways I perhaps wouldn't always with friends. This has been an incredibly supportive experience.”

    SUPPORT LINE CALLER

  • "I feel 100% positive about my conversation with my coach. They listened deeply, commented in helpful ways, and prompted me to think more clearly about several issues. Kudos to all of you there on the new resources you're providing."

    COACHING CLIENT

  • “I am new to all this and just having someone who I could call and just accept me in the space I was in and walk me through avenues I felt overwhelmed in, brought me a calm and ability to understand deeper the overall journey I am on with mushrooms.”
