Our Emcee is RMC: Rachel M. Cooksey. Say those initials out loud and you already have the name: R. M. C. Our Emcee. But the name carries a second meaning just as intentional.
An emcee is a master of ceremony. Not the one in the spotlight, but the one who holds it. Who reads the room, sets the tone, and ensures that what needs to happen, happens with intention and grace. The emcee is the skilled, calm presence that makes space for something bigger than themselves.
That is exactly what this work calls for. Whether you are moving through a psychedelic experience, integrating its aftermath, exploring ketamine-assisted therapy, or building a clinical research program: you need someone who knows the territory, honors the gravity of the moment, and shows up with both expertise and heart.
Rachel brings over a decade of high-acuity pediatric nursing, frontline clinical trial experience with psilocybin and 5-MeO-DMT, and a deep commitment to the humans who trust her with their most significant moments. She is, in every sense of the word, your emcee.

Experience & Training
The Approach
The word ceremony comes from the Latin caerimonia: a rite, a sacred observance, a moment set apart from the ordinary. A master of ceremony does not perform the rite. They protect it. They hold the container so that what is sacred can unfold safely.
This is the animating principle behind every service offered here. Clinical knowledge, research expertise, and years of bedside presence are not the point. They are the tools that make the real work possible. The real work is being present with another human being at a threshold moment, and ensuring they do not have to cross it alone.
