ORLANDO, Fla. — A therapy session with Patricia Brown starts like any other.
She leads her clients into a peaceful, quiet room, draped in beige and generic, calming artwork.
Then her clients lie down, close their eyes, put on a blindfold and headphones, and trip for six hours on psilocybin, the psychoactive chemical found in magic mushrooms. Brown is a psychiatric nurse practitioner and head of clinical operations at CNS Healthcare.
