Choose the Right Path for Your Practice

The Institute offers two structured pathways designed for licensed clinicians depending on the level of training, support, and long-term alignment they are seeking.

Certification Training

For licensed clinicians who want advanced training and a repeatable framework they can apply independently.
Includes: 2.5-day in-person training, functional & lifestyle foundations, functional psychedelic medicine framework, mindful integration workshop, experiential clinical learning, and Institute-Certified designation.

Certification Training + Membership

For clinicians and clinics who want ongoing education, support, community, and optional public alignment with the Institute.
Includes: Everything in Certification, plus ongoing education, case-based discussions, IFS-informed professional development, advanced updates, optional brand alignment benefits, systems, tools, and curated resources.

Ongoing Support & Growth

Why Providers Are Drawn to Mindful Medicine

Stabilize the Nervous System

Providers learn how to help patients stabilize their nervous system early in care, reducing symptom burden and improving safety before advancing into deeper treatment. This phase builds the foundation for successful clinical outcomes and long-term progress.

Address Root Causes

Clinicians are trained to identify and correct underlying biological drivers such as hormone imbalance, nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction. This structured approach moves beyond symptom management to support true clinical restoration.

Build Sustainable Practices

The program teaches providers how to implement repeatable systems for treatment planning, patient engagement, and follow-up care. This helps create a stable, scalable practice model that supports both patient outcomes and long-term clinic growth

Three Core Training Domains

The Mindful Medicine framework is built on three integrated domains that guide how clinicians think, structure care, and deliver meaningful, outcome-driven treatment in real clinical practice.

Functional & Lifestyle Medicine

Restore physiology, strengthen resilience, and reshape behavior patterns that influence long-term health and consistent clinical outcomes.

Ketamine Therapy

Apply neuroplastic states safely and effectively through structured clinical Ketamine frameworks designed to support clarity, safety, and measurable outcomes.

Mindful Integration (Certified IFS-based)

Guide patients to integrate meaningful change, build deeper awareness, and maintain progress while protecting professional boundaries and clinical responsibility.

Introducing Neuroexpression™

A term developed within the Institute of Mindful Medicine to describe the internally generated visual, emotional, and perceptual experiences that may occur during ketamine therapy and states of heightened neuroplasticity.

Beyond “Hallucinations”

Neuroexpression™ reframes ketamine experiences in a more biologically grounded and clinically supportive way.

Heightened Neuroplasticity

During ketamine therapy, altered neural signaling may allow thoughts, emotions, and memories to become more consciously accessible.

Music as Structure

IMM teaches clinicians how music may influence emotional tone, pacing, and introspective depth during treatment.

Symbolic Processing

Patients may experience imagery, memories, or emotional insight in ways that feel organized rather than random.

Clinical Context Matters

Neuroexpression™ occurs within a controlled, medically guided environment with predictable onset and resolution.

A New Clinical Language

The goal is to help clinicians communicate these experiences without relying on stigmatizing or recreational terminology.

Tia Albro APRN-C

The only reason why I have a thriving business in Rochester NY, is because of Dr. Agin and his amazing team. They are the only ones that I have trusted with not only my health, but the health of my integrative center. I needed to get my self-healthy first before I could heal others. I would highly recommend this trainings to everyone. The bonus is that this team really cares about your success. They go above and beyond their jobs to help you and your team. I could not imagine doing this kind of work without their support and encouragement

Tara DeRosa MSN, FNP-C

The training with Dr. Agin could not have been better! Dr. Agin is a wealth of knowledge and getting the opportunity to train from him has been more than beneficial to my practice as an NP. Ketamine therapy was the thing that was missing from my practice that has already made such am impactful change with my patients along with the application of functional medicine.

Jessica Koontz PMHNP-BC

I’ve been a psychiatric nurse for 23 years, and I can say without a doubt that this training program is one of the best I’ve ever attended. It gave me a comprehensive and holistic approach to care—focusing not just on mental health, but also integrating physical well-being. I feel more confident than ever in providing whole-person care, and I highly recommend this program to any healthcare professional looking to expand their skills and impact.
