About Us
When it comes to mental health, we’re in need of solutions that are both effective and long-lasting. The treatments available today, such as antidepressants, have been far less than ideal for many people with serious psychological disorders and can often cause debilitating side effects–and some would say antidepressants rarely solve the mental health problems at hand; rather, they just mask its symptoms. A solution is needed now more than ever, and psychedelic-assisted therapy appears to us to be that solution. The healing nature of psychedelic medicine is nothing new to us, and now we finally have the licenses and infrastructure necessary to offer this ancient yet revolutionary option for mental health care.
Ethical

Each HIVE BIO location is committed to a compassionate access programme. This means helping patients from the community at zero cost or low cost depending on their financial status.
Diversity
Diversity enhances our organizational culture and we are proud to have such a diverse team. Our primary focus is on our patients and we know that an inclusive, diverse culture can bring the best outcomes for all.

Our Story
HIVE BIO was founded in early 2020 based on the notion that the world needs access to psychedelic medicines which requires a specialist clinic infrastructure and the highest standards of patient care.
With this in mind, our founders worked to create the first medically licensed ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in a retreat setting in Europe. We adhere to strict, standardised safety protocols that you would expect to see from any medical clinic in the western world. With a focus on safety, intention, and a comfortable environment conducive to reflection and growth, we believe psychedelics can escape the current taboo that has been created by decades of misuse. Our attention to detail and understanding of the psychedelic healing process sets us apart from our competitors and allows us to scale without losing quality of care.
Founders
The pursuit of healing is a never-ending journey that can be pursued through many methods.

We have a defined interest in growing our affiliations with both therapists and additional counsellors who have patients that would benefit from our individually tailored programmes. We have found that collaboration between a patients therapist/counsellors and the team here at HIVE BIO vastly increases the duration, impacts and outcomes of preparation, integration practices and lastly healing.
