Amy Milroy is a double board-certified psychiatric and family nurse practitioner who is a healer by nature and nurture. As a trauma survivor, Amy offers retreat participants the wisdom and expertise of her own healing combined with what she has learned from many patients’ healing journeys. Amy has a unique and sweeping perspective on the art and science of thriving. Years ago when she started benefiting from psychedelic medicine’s powerful healing force, she changed her mind in all the best senses.

When she started her career as a registered nurse, she felt demoralized when she witnessed how often the healthcare system does not make patients healthier. In moving from registered nurse to family nurse practitioner and then to psychiatric nurse practitioner, Amy kept feeling she was getting closer to her true vocation, but not yet reaching it. After having very healing experiences with psychedelics, she realized her deepest calling and dedicated her life to helping people achieve lasting transformation and wellness through psychedelic medicine. In October 2023 she will complete her certification as a psychedelic-assisted therapy provider. She and Sal launched Transcendelic so they could help people become their best, healthiest, most fulfilled selves.

Amy’s patients, students, and loved ones have frequently told her she is very compassionate, wise, and open-minded. She has a talent for making people feel at home. During her career she has cared for patients of all ages in a variety of settings, including most recently providing ketamine treatment via telehealth. She is committed to equity, and a regular provider of free healthcare for those in need. Amy is grateful for her teachers: those who have traditionally used psychedelics (especially Indigenous peoples), loved ones, colleagues, therapists, authors, students, researchers, and of course her patients. She looks forward to meeting you, hearing your story, and helping you discover your highest self.
