Company Summary

About

Fluence is a psychedelic education project of Liberty Learning, LLC and is fully owned and operated by Dr. Ingmar Gorman and Dr. Elizabeth Nielson. We offer training independently and in collaboration with a variety of clinics, conferences, private practices, non-profit associations, retreat centers, and psychedelic research sponsors.

Fluence offers a series of continuing education programs in psychedelic integration and psychedelic-assisted therapy. Their programs are designed for licensed professionals and advanced graduate students who have an opportunity to work with patient populations. Although none of their courses have specific prerequisites, a basic working knowledge of the mental health field and practice of psychotherapy is helpful. Fluence's programs are interactive, they engage in discussion, demonstration, self-reflection exercises, and role plays. Some of their classes and programs are reserved for licensed clinicians, but many are open anyone who wishes to attend.
