About the Canadian Centre for Psychedelic Healing

The Canadian Centre for Psychedelic Healing was established in 2019 in Thunder Bay, ON by Dr. Mario Nucci, a passionate advocate for innovation in the area of mental health. At CCFPH, our primary focus is Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), a combination of Ketamine and Psychotherapy, which has shown to be 70% effective against treatment resistant forms of depression. KAP is a holistic therapy that can allow a person to open up and explore themselves in new ways. With the dissociative effects of oral ketamine and the support of a trained psychotherapist, the insights and healing found in this therapy can produce significant and sustainable shifts in how you experience life.

At CCFPH, we provide a rewarding job experience with a growing network of passionate health professionals who are seeing meaningful patient breakthroughs on a daily basis.
While working with cutting edge techniques, we offer an entrepreneurial and collaborative working environment focused on delivering best-in-class client care.
