Liz is beyond gifted in the realm of psychedelic healing and compassion for the human experience. She brings warmth, expertise, and kindness to every interaction. As a complete novice to psychedelic use and exploration, I was full of questions and even fear. Liz immediately made me feel at ease with her deep understanding of psychedelics and their therapeutic potential. She embodies a genuine respect and reverence for the sacred nature of these substances and experiences.  

Under Liz's guidance, I have embarked on a journey that continues to transcend my expectations. I have been met with a compassionate approach and unwavering support that has created a safe container for exploration and expansion. With Liz's support, I continue to navigate the depths of my consciousness, confronting and integrating parts of myself that have long been neglected. 

I am forever grateful for Liz, her knowledge, compassion, guidance, and support on this journey of healing and self-discovery.

Liz Chernett changed my life. She is an extraordinary therapist and psychedelic guide,
and an insightful, wise, loving and divine human being.
My plant medicine journey with Liz was incredible: 5 hours of oneness during which I surrendered and stepped into my power. But it was the work Liz and I did beforehand to set my intentions and gain clarity around what I wanted out of the trip, and our sessions to integrate the trip afterwards, that brought about my deep self-understanding and lasting transformation.

I was called to take a plant medicine trip because I was feeling stuck. When the world and my work shut down with Covid in 2020, I shut down too. And while I had been thawing out three years later, I was still full of self-doubt, negative chatter in my head and inability to break free of patterns that were holding me back. I tried talk therapy, but that wasn’t helpful. It was more of the same: churning in my head. I wanted to get into my body, and also within layers of my consciousness. But as called as I felt, I was also nervous and a bit fearful about going on a psychedelic trip. I felt immediately comfortable with Liz when we met on zoom for our discovery call. What followed—the materials she sent me, our discussions and the prompts she gave me to reflect and journal about—put me completely at ease. She held my hand, and held my heart, in a way that turned any fears I had into excitement, engagement and wonder, including during the trip itself. What a profound mystical experience that was, thanks largely to Liz and the spirituality, joy and loving safety she provided. I now feel limitless possibility, deep love, giddy joy, awe and a fearlessness to embrace the fullness of life again.

In my work and my personal relationships, I find it easier to nurture others than to allow myself to be nurtured. I am usually the one who listens, asks questions, enables others to share vulnerably and reflects an empowering light on them. Liz played that role with me in a way that no one else in my life ever has other than my very closest friends. And I loved giving over to her in a way I usually don’t. That’s her magic, or one part of a vast array of her magic. I felt so fully seen, understood and held by Liz. She is in it with you and there for you, with deep care, compassion and loving attention every step of the way.

Liz also challenged me in ways that few people ever have, with brilliant questions and insights during and in follow up to our pre and post-trip sessions together. And also inspired me by sharing some of her favorite poems, music, books and new ways of looking at myself and the wider world. Her view of the wider world is divinely expansive, enabling me to see and feel my inter-connectedness with all: the spirit world, elements of nature, all of nature and so much more.

I can’t wait to go on another plant medicine trip with Liz!! I am forever grateful to her and forever grateful to know her.

Liz’s unique approach to coaching and mentoring is nothing short of revolutionary. She is extraordinarily knowledgeable, compassionate and caring. Once I met her, she immediately felt like an old friend. The personalized support and guidance she provided before, during and after my journey were second to none. On the day of my journey, Liz did an astounding job creating a safe, welcoming environment, which enabled me to fully surrender to the experience. The set, setting, and soundtrack she curated were simply sublime. Whatever skepticism or doubts I may have had going in quickly dissipated and my experience was joyful, mystical, and deeply profound. I’ve described it to friends and family as “pure magic.” That’s not hyperbole. What’s more, the conversations we had and Liz’s insightful reflections, which she dutifully captured and sent me as “Session Notes” afterward, were the perfect complement to a transcendent experience. I’m so grateful to have met Liz because the time we’ve spent together will most certainly help me create meaningful and lasting positive change in my life.

"As a person who always felt terrified of psychedelic experiences, Liz was the perfect safe presence to guide me into this realm. I knew from the jump she was expertly informed in both the science and the spirit of the work. Her process was impeccable: breathwork and supplements to prep, and distilled summaries from our coaching sessions that showed she was really listening. She offered me ideas that expanded my perspective, information that helped me work with the energy before and after, and logistical initiative that kept me moving when my resistance kicked in. Going into the ceremony, I knew she would hold the ground while I took the leap. When I did leap, I was surprised and grateful to discover not just a guardian at the gate, but a companion on the journey. Her heartfelt presence and personal engagement in my process shifted the work to another level. Spirit medicine is my daily life, but this moment has emerged as one of the top three groundshifting awakenings of my earthtime yet. Unlike the other moments, when transformation found me (or was necessary for my spiritual survival), this was a moment when I initiated the transformation. I found the door, Liz gave me the key, and together we walked into a new reality."

“I am a 74 year old woman who recently embarked on a beautiful, revealing, loving psychedelic journey guided by Liz Chernett. It surpassed my expectation, which was to confront a “dark spot” or depression that has troubled me most of my adult life no matter how much talk therapy I turned to.

Liz is kind, supportive, and intuitively uncovered a lot of my fears and hopes, and helped me determine what I hoped to achieve during my journey. After 4 pre-journey sessions I felt fully prepared and hopeful about what the experience could bring.

My journey was very enlightening. What made it different from talk-therapy was that I used my whole body during it. I felt, not only thought, the effects of the medicine and the teachings. I felt, for the first time in a long time, the joy of being uninhibited in my movements, my thoughts, and my speech. I proceeded to encounter each of the subjects I had discussed with Liz and listened for the medicine’s answer. At one point Liz’s face revealed an ancient medicine mask and I took this to be her “wisdom face”.  At that point, I think I understood that I was in the presence of the medicine speaking truth. It was profound work.

It has been almost 2 months since my journey and although the experience has softened, I am still so affected by the benefits of my experience. The most pronounced effect is that I have reacquainted myself with myself and the strengths I had forgotten. I have more trust in my decisions, and when I confront things that bother me, I seem to have many more options with how to deal with them besides anger, depression, or hiding. I am more fully in the moment, less frustrated by time and all the trappings of the material world. I am hoping that the experience will elevate my creative self and help me to complete a project dear to my heart.

I am so happy to have been on this journey with Liz’s guidance. I don’t think it would have felt quite as complete or wonderful without her.

I found a new dear friend in Liz. She has wisdom beyond her years. I was at once enjoying my experience and witnessing a master and a sage, disguised as a hipster. What a combination! I found a new friend and confidante in Liz. A remarkable woman. I applaud her unmatched listening skills that deepened and expanded the whole experience for me.

In 40 years of personal growth courses I have never been more coaxed for clarity as to what I wanted from my experience. Receiving a written summary of each of our preliminary and post event sessions was incredible. Having my sentiments captured for my reflection is like a course unto itself! I am honored to have witnessed this master at work. 

Noreen S., New York

From the moment I spoke to Liz about my reasons, worries and thoughts about the journey I wanted to start, I felt heard and welcomed. After many years of self doubt, blame and self "trash talk,” I was encouraged (but never pushed) to try and stop an old cycle, with warmth and understanding. Every effort was made to make me feel comfortable and safe. 

So many gentle suggestions, tips and loving encouragement throughout the meetings, preparations and the day eased my fear and enveloped me in a warm hug that resonates with me today. I hope to continue my growth and understanding as a person who appreciates and loves myself and shares that part of me at home, work and in my little part of the world.

So many thanks, Liz.

I embarked on a personal development journey over two years ago, making significant progress until I reached a point of stagnation. A close friend shared his transformative experience with Liz, sparking my excitement about the possibility of a similar impact. My time with Liz was genuinely remarkable, akin to a condensed fusion of years of therapy and life coaching, all in a single day. The post-journey version of myself now wakes up each day with a sense of optimism, gratitude, and love for my family and myself. The burden of an endless to-do list has lifted, deepening my connections with others, and allowing me to authentically be myself. Liz served as the ideal guide for delving into my past, confronting it, and unveiling the infinite capabilities within myself. I wholeheartedly recommend Liz to anyone seeking meaningful change in their own lives.

“My 1:1 Psychedelic Mentorship & Transformation Coaching experience with Liz was truly that - transformational. Liz creates such a loving container from start to finish. The preparation calls were so integral to my ability to set intentions and Liz helped me delve deeper into the true intentions I wanted to reach before the ceremony. I can't emphasize the mentorship and coaching enough in this experience. I felt prepared, safe and Liz answered all of my questions while also honoring and creating space for the beauty of embracing the unknown. 

Liz was beside me every step of the way on the day of the journey, I felt her calming and caring presence as she began the ceremony with a beautiful blessing and throughout the hours we spent together. She held space for all of the things that came up for me, helped me to process and guided me through. The medicine, the music and the energy allowed me to truly go inward. 

Liz's support with integration following the ceremony helped me to weave this transformation into my life in a super meaningful way. If you are considering a journey, reach out to Liz. She is empathic, present and wonderful! 

Sara S., Philadelphia

“Life changing coaching, support, guidance, understanding. Liz provides assurance for the right attitude to proceed for a meaningful journey. She instills a safe space to fully let go in order to accept and fully benefit from the journey. She is all in for you, she makes absolutely sure that everything you need is provided to you. All her support allowed for a life changing experience for me!

Michael S., Providence

“For anyone who is familiar with psychedelic work or is a novice, they know that a lot of unearthing of joyful, confusing, uncomfortable, or fearful feelings can arise. Liz is truly the perfect partner to assist with leading up to and following a journey. She’s not only extremely knowledgeable and well educated on the biological and scientific aspect of plant medicine, but also the metaphysical and emotional aspects that arise in one’s experience—making her extremely relatable and warm in her approach. Liz really prepares for each session and structures them so you get the most out of your time together. She helps you clarify and detangle your experience, and has a creative toolbox of actionable takeaways to help you progress in your individual integration process. I particularly loved the follow up emails, which nicely summarized our sessions and where I can refer back to when needed. It’s clear that Liz is very passionate about her work and her clients with mid-week check-ins to see how you’re feeling and progressing. As an experienced practitioner in plant medicine, I would likely recommend Liz to anyone interested in this work. Integration is where the real work begins and I’m honored and grateful to work with Liz in this greater journey.”

Jordana H., New York City

“Thank you so much for being a guide and mirror on this journey. Truly a wonderful experience. Our sessions were always an eye opening affair, and your thoughtfulness and thoroughness was always so reassuring.” 

Elish P., Brooklyn

“Words alone cannot convey my gratitude to Liz for facilitating what has been, thus far, one of the most transformative and healing experiences of my life. Liz prepared me for my first-ever psychedelic journey with the utmost of knowledge, deep listening, and care. Through her non-judgmental and compassionate presence, from the get-go, I felt safe to open up to Liz about where I felt ashamed and stuck in my life. From this place of feeling so understood, Liz helped me to develop well thought-out intentions, and assigned me “homework” that catalyzed personal growth even before the ceremony began. 

Having never taken psychedelics before, I was nervous about how to prepare and what to expect. Liz made herself available to answer all my questions, even the most minute, calming my mind, body and spirit for the journey to come. Throughout the journey, I felt Liz’s presence as an intuitive, loving, wise container, holding the space for me to go deep inside, and offering words of encouragement and guided imagery to further deepen my experience.  It was clear that Liz poured her heart and soul into curating a music playlist for the journey that continues to reverberate in my cells. In the weeks following my journey, I worked with Liz to reflect on and “integrate” the teachings of the medicine and to develop realistic practices to further my growth and transformation. I cannot believe how motivated I feel to heal! In addition to being one of the kindest humans, Liz is gifted beyond words in her calling as a psychedelic mentor and transformational coach. I highly recommend Liz to anyone who is considering using psychedelics to create lasting, positive change.”

Michelle R., Boston

“Liz has a preternatural gift for helping people dig deep and make meaningful change in their lives. She possesses an innate curiosity and compassion that she uses to help her clients integrate psychedelic experiences. But what I so appreciate about Liz's work, is that those experiences are just the jumping off point. Throughout our sessions, her engaging questions and assignments—and incredible recap emails!—helped me come to many new perspective-shifting realizations. Simultaneously, we worked to establish grounding new routines and tools that help weave those realizations into my day-to-day life. All of this has deepened and given more meaning to the impact of my psychedelic experiences."

Rachel G., Brooklyn

“The integration coaching I received with Liz was life changing in a very positive and empowering way. Liz is a truly gifted coach who lovingly and patiently listens and assists you as you find what it is you are longing for. Liz listened very deeply in our sessions and helped me to clarify my intentions prior to each journey. After the journey, she lovingly listened to the details of my experience and guided me as I found the meaning, insights, and lessons within them. The best part of all is how she then helped me to find ways to integrate these insights and lessons into my everyday life. Journeying is a wonderful experience in and of itself—but to have someone with a calm spirit, tremendous love, and experience to help guide you, makes all the difference! I loved and looked forward to each session I had with Liz and I am so grateful to her.”
