AND WITH THE RIGHT GUIDANCE, EDUCATION, AND SUPPORT, IT BECOMES A TRANSFORMATIVE OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH & HEALING.
Without a solid foundation of knowledge about the safe and responsible use of psychedelics, many people in recovery find themselves uncertain and hesitant to explore this powerful avenue for healing.
Embarking on the journey of applying psychedelics to a program of recovery can be overwhelming and isolating. The absence of a supportive community and guidance often hinders progress and leaves people feeling lost.
Many traditional recovery approaches emphasize complete abstinence without addressing the underlying issues that contribute to addiction. This one-size-fits-all mindset often fails to address the deeper emotional, spiritual, and psychological aspects of recovery.
You've felt traditional recovery methods falling short for you.
Past traumas remain unhealed, no matter how hard you've tried.
You're seeking more than just sobriety — you want awakening.
Traditional therapy hasn't touched the deeper layers of your pain.
You're searching for deeper meaning and spiritual connection.
You feel the call, but the pathway remains unclear.
You're ready to explore your consciousness, but safely.
You want guidance from someone who understands recovery and psychedelics.
FROM MYTHS TO REALITY, I FOUND A DEEPER TRUTH
healing and growth through INFORMED AND
MINDFUL USE OF PSYCHEDELICS.
Envision a life where you embrace the healing you've longed for.
"I'm learning that psychedelics can be of value to enhance my sobriety.
I'm also learning that the program is not about changing or replacing 12-step programs. Vanessa does a good job of reminding participants of this fact.
I learned more about what sobriety means to me vs what I've been told by others. Sobriety is more than "I don't drink alcohol" period! I am now more open to new ideas for supporting my recovery and healing journey.
Vanessa’s gift to me and countless others is her willingness to share her passion, knowledge, and wisdom. I can honestly say that Vanessa’s guidance has given me the courage and perseverance to continue to grow and thrive. Little by little I become a better version of myself. I am forever grateful."

Meet Your Guide
Hello, Fellow Seekers!
My name is Vanessa Crites, and my path of recovery and spiritual growth has been a courageous adventure marked by resilience and self-discovery. With a foundation in 12-Step, I’ve been a person in long-term recovery since 2005. Yet, as the years passed, there was an undeniable yearning to go deeper and a sense that there was an unexplored world of possibilities beyond the familiar confines of traditional recovery models. I knew, deep down, that there had to be more to this journey.
Deeply rooted in my spiritual practices, a yearning for greater inner exploration surfaced in 2016. It was then that Sacred Medicines became a beacon, reshaping not only my sobriety but also my perception of inner healing and addressing deep-seated trauma. These ancient Medicines offered a more holistic understanding and bridged the gaps between the spiritual, emotional, and psychological aspects of myself.
Today, as a mother, former corporate executive, integration specialist and a forerunner in Psychedelics & Recovery education, I'm committed to dispelling myths and emphasizing thorough education and harm reduction in the interest of personal and public safety. I do not condone any illicit transactions or activities — I advise a safe, responsible, and discerning journey.
To those who feel the “call” of these transformative medicines, you are not alone. I invite you to journey with me, to learn and explore what is possible in these realms with care, wisdom, and an open heart. Together, in Sobriety of the Soul, we'll uncover new pathways to the healing your Soul seeks.
In gratitude and service,
V.

real stories of soulful sobriety
-Jeff B.
"I can say without exaggeration that this course is utterly indispensable for anyone in recovery with even a passing curiosity of the transformative potential of psychedelics.
If you're lucky, you may find a good group to discuss the safe usage of psychedelics, or you might discover a great fellowship to discuss recovery from addiction. However, you absolutely will not find a program that integrates addiction recovery with the intentional and therapeutic usage of psychedelics, at least not of this caliber.
Let's start with the coach; Vanessa is nothing short of amazing. Between her vast knowledge of both traditional and cutting-edge approaches to addiction treatment, her otherworldly kindness and compassion, and her exceptional ability to articulately convey groundbreaking concepts with warmth and passion, it is absolutely clear that she is a gift to those who suffer from addiction.
It was worth the price of admission just to be part of a nurturing community that could only be created by someone who has found her true calling as a healer and educator. But unsurprisingly, the course material itself was just as exceptional as the coach. In well-organized and thorough weekly presentations, Vanessa adeptly guided us through all facets of the incorporation of psychedelics in addiction recovery, including history, medicine options, clinical and ceremonial usage, preparation, integration, and, of course, safety.
Even as an experienced user of plant medicines, my approach to utilizing psychedelics in my healing journey has been completely altered by this course; I have learned many practical tools to enhance my spiritual connection, maximize the therapeutic benefits of each plant medicine experience, and live a life of true sobriety rather than just abstinence. I am so grateful that I gave this gift to myself."
-Kendra V.
“SOS is that bridge! A bridge of love and light, married with scientific facts and ancestral reverence and respect.
I have been in and out of recovery since June of 2015 and now I am solid in my recovery. I have so much love for the 12-step model and my experience of it is that it was not as expansive as I needed.
The 12-steps alone did not help me address what lies beneath for me that was contributing to my active addiction and relapses. When I found psychedelic healing, that all began to change and I was able to unearth things that I didn't even realize were going "bump in the night" for me until I was being presented with the opportunity to heal them.
Once I got on my feet and became an advocate for marrying these two things together, I opened my heart to the idea that others were doing the same. Then the universe sent me the most beautiful sign in the form of Sobriety of The Soul. The container that I dreamed could exist was being birthed and held by this Divine being who leads with unconditional love, acceptance, wisdom and knowledge. It was a God send for me as it reinfused hope into my veins that together we can address our dysfunctional substance use AND we could be offered an avenue to walk down to have the spiritual awakening so many reach for and so many do not achieve.
I recommend this program for the beginning seeker who knows there has to be another avenue toward total healing AND to the experienced psychonaut who desires to learn how the mindful and reverent use of psychedelics is NOT out of alignment. EVERYone who needs to learn to inhale and exhale more deeply into their path of healing can benefit from this program, including those who are learning to support their loved ones on this path.
Thank you, Vanessa, for a glorious offering! "
-Jo Anne S.
“What a miracle Vanessa Crites offers.
Here I am a senior lady, sober for eleven years and grateful for twelve step recovery. Here I am a senior lady, with lingering depression which has been treated with various levels of response; never far from the maddening cry of drowning while breathing.
Here I am a senior lady, with no recreational drug history and a growing awareness of the thrilling results that caring doctors at Johns Hopkins (and other universities) are achieving with the use of psychedelics (primarily psilocybin.)
I read and circled the wagons for two years. Yearning to flee to Peru to sit with Gabor Mate.
It was a big leap from restricted South Carolina to the healing arts which were serving more and more people.
What this intelligent, aware, caring and fully experienced twelve step recovered person brings to the weary, the still suffering addict/alcoholic.
She provides education, preparation, guidance and opens the doorway to healing with psychedelic medicine in the unassailably most ethical and professional approach.
Could I find heretofore unmentioned superlatives which would describe her and the work she is doing, to pass along to you, I would.
She brought the grace of her mission straight to this little old lady’s doorstep in the hinterlands! Please do listen carefully to your heart. Move with Vanessa to the unexplored dimensions. Your soul is ready. I promise you. "
I find myself with a heightened colour perception and an appreciation of beauty almost destroyed by my years of depressions."
— Bill Wilson, co-founder of A.A. in a letter to Gerald Heard in September 1957
