Ride the Third Wave of Psychedelics
Ride the Third Wave of Psychedelics
Hello, I’m Paul F. Austin, founder of Third Wave and the Psychedelic Coaching Institute, and author of Mastering Microdosing.
The psychedelic revolution is here, and I’m witnessing it change lives every day. As an evolutionary catalyst for personal growth, plant medicines are rapidly gaining cultural acceptance and legal ground. This isn’t just a trend…
It’s an exponential paradigm shift in human potential.
At Third Wave and the Psychedelic Coaching Institute, we’re at the forefront of this movement. Every month, tens of thousands of people turn to us to learn about the benefits of plant medicines and how to apply them in their lives. Interest is rapidly expanding, and the healing potential is profound.
But here’s the challenge: there aren’t enough trained practitioners to meet this surging demand.

I been well trained in psychedelic skills that I can use to coach and teach my clients, this program transformed my life and my personal relationships in deeply profound ways. Applying these skills to my career as a massage therapist a career path has opened up. I am excited for my future as both a psychedelic coach and a psychedelic bodyworker.
- Erik H.
A Unique Journey of Knowledge and Community
The wealth of knowledge and experience the program facilitators and lecturers contribute to this curriculum cannot be understated. That, coupled with the sense of community, accountability, and kinship formed with the other students make this a truly unique, transformative, and life affirming experience for anyone interested in or involved with the psychedelic support community.
- Daniel B.
Life-Changing Journey of Personal and Professional Growth
PCI gave me enough depth and freedom to explore the world of integration coaching in a way that resonated withme. With a wide variety of approaches and knowledge from guest lecturers, it felt less like a ‘step-by-step’ approach and more of a guided intuitive program with enough structure and guardrails to help me forge my own path. Integration sessions were my favorite, leaving me with peer connections and support that will last a lifetime.

What Our Graduates Are Saying
I’ve Noticed a Strong and Growing Interest Among Clients
Integrating plant medicine into my coaching toolkit has been a significant and enriching development. For clients seeking deep, transformational change, it has proven to be a powerful and supportive offering. I’ve noticed a strong and growing interest among my clients when it comes to plant medicine as a transformational tool. Many are open and curious about the potential benefits it offers, especially as they seek meaningful, lasting changes in their lives.
- Chris V.
Complete & Well-Thought-Out Program
After completing the Psychedelic Coaching Institute program, I found my confidence in working with clients to help with their prep and integration skyrocketed. I have had more openness to advertising my services and sharing information with people to help them navigate this renaissance of psychedelics. I truly believe what I have learned can help shape the world for the better, and I’m grateful to Paul and all the staff and instructors for sharing such a complete and well-thought-out program.
- Kathy G.
Empowered to Guide Transformative Journeys
From beginning to end, this highly participatory learning program has equipped me with the knowledge, skills, confidence and expertise to provide safe, ethical, equanimous Psychedelic Coaching Services. I’ve learned the ancient indigenous roots and wisdom of plant medicines, precision science and neuropharmacology of the molecules, and safe, practical skillfulness of merging and applying the two for profound psychological, somatic and spiritual unfoldment in the world. This has transformed and expanded myself as an Integrative Development Practitioner, working at the intersection of coaching, therapy and spirituality – now with the powerful catalyst of psychedelics.
- Chris T.
Exceeding Expectations for Aspiring Psychedelic Coaches
The Coaching Certification Program is one of the rare occasions in life in which a participant with high expectations will find them exceeded. It is the closest one could get to witnessing the program creator’s vision without being the program creator. It is extremely informative for practicing coaches who wish to introduce psychedelic modalities into their practice, but it also prepares motivated students with no prior coaching experience to comfortably and confidently help clients realize their full potential.
- Shawn W.
I Now Have a Thriving 1:1 Psychedelic-Assisted Coaching Practice
I came away from the program with so much more than foundational knowledge and a comprehensive toolkit for doing psychedelic integration coaching with integrity. I came away with a soul family; lifelong connections that are nurturing my spirit. I now have a thriving 1:1 psychedelic-assisted coaching practice, and I would not be where I am were it not for the depth of this program and the incredibly passionate and engaged Third Wave community.
