Annual report - April 2026

The US has 241 verified psychedelic therapy providers across 21 states. 30 states still have zero.

First independent, license-verified count of the US psychedelic therapy marketplace. Every provider cross-checked against the issuing regulator - FDA REMS registry, Oregon Health Authority, Colorado DORA, state medical boards - between January and April 2026. Published under CC BY 4.0.

Key findings

Concentration

Four states hold 74% of verified supply

Colorado (76), Texas (45), California (37) and Oregon (22) account for 180 of the 241 providers on the ledger. The remaining 17 states split 61 providers between them - an average of 3.6 clinics per state.

Psilocybin

Colorado overtook Oregon on licensed psilocybin in year one

Prop 122 healing centers opened in 2025 and already outnumber Oregon Measure 109 service centers by 3.5:1 (76 vs 22). The gap reflects Colorado's faster facilitator licensing pipeline and broader modality scope, not higher demand.

Access deserts

30 states have zero published verified providers

Ohio, New Jersey, Michigan and Tennessee have active clinic markets that are not yet reflected in our published set - re-verification in progress. But 22 of the 30 are genuine structural deserts: physician shortage states where patients routinely drive 3+ hours or cross state lines for treatment.

Modality mix

Spravato is the workhorse of insured access

Of 113 FDA-regulated ketamine-family sites on the ledger, 113 offer Spravato (esketamine). Spravato is the only modality with reliable private-insurance and Medicare coverage nationally, making it the default route for patients who need insurance to work.

Regulatory

New Mexico's medical psilocybin program will be the biggest 2026 shift

SB 219 was signed in April 2025 and authorizes licensed practitioners for PTSD, treatment-resistant depression, SUD, and end-of-life care. Rule-making is underway; first licensed practitioners are expected mid-2026. We project 8-15 verified sites by our July edition.

Veteran access

The VA is outperforming most states on Spravato

VA Medical Centers in DC, San Diego, Bay Area and San Antonio are quietly among the largest Spravato-delivering institutions in the country. Several VA programs also run ketamine IV pilots. Veterans with TRD often have better access than civilians with commercial insurance.

Access deserts

30 states, zero verified supply

These states have no provider that has passed our license verification as of April 2026. Some will populate in the July edition as re-verification clears. Others are structural deserts - patients there routinely cross state lines or go untreated.

Methodology

What counts as a provider

A verified provider is a clinic, licensed service center, or solo practitioner with an active license at a US address who delivers at least one of: Spravato, ketamine IV/IM/oral (off-label), or licensed psilocybin services (Oregon OHA or Colorado DORA). A single organization with multiple locations counts as multiple providers if each location has its own verifiable license.

Verification sources

  • - FDA REMS Spravato prescribing registry
  • - Oregon Health Authority Psilocybin Services license list
  • - Colorado DORA Natural Medicine Services license list
  • - All 50 state medical board license lookup databases
  • - ASKP3 board certification registry (ketamine specialists)
  • - NPI-validated billing entity records

What we do not count

Research-only academic trial sites with no public access pathway. Telehealth-only at-home programs (covered in a separate report). Providers advertising psychedelic therapy without a verifiable license. International retreats (covered in a separate report). Underground facilitators.

Re-verification cadence

Every listed license is re-verified against its source on a rolling 90-day cycle. If a license lapses, is surrendered, or is subject to regulatory discipline, the provider is removed from public listings within 7 days. Full change history is available on request to journalists and researchers.

Common questions

How were the 241 providers verified?

Every provider is cross-checked against the issuing regulator before appearing on the site: FDA REMS registry for Spravato, Oregon Health Authority for psilocybin service centers, Colorado DORA for Colorado healing centers, and state medical boards for off-label ketamine clinics. License numbers, expiry dates, and registrant names are re-verified on a rolling 90-day cycle. A provider is removed if a license lapses, surrenders, or is disciplined.

Why do some states show zero providers when they clearly have clinics?

This report counts only providers who passed our independent license verification as of April 2026. Ohio, New Jersey, and several other states have active clinics in our unpublished backlog awaiting re-verification; they will appear in future editions. The report reflects what is verifiable right now, not what exists in the marketplace broadly.

Does this include at-home telehealth ketamine?

No. This is an in-clinic and licensed-service-center report. Telehealth-only programs (Mindbloom, Joyous, Innerwell, Better U, Wondermed) operate a different regulatory model under individual state prescribing rules and are not included in the state-by-state counts. Those providers are covered in our at-home ketamine comparison.

Why is the Spravato count higher than IV ketamine in most states?

Spravato is an FDA-approved drug with an official REMS registry - so we can verify it to a single public source. Off-label IV and IM ketamine clinics verify against state medical boards, a slower and more fragmented process. The real ratio of IV clinics is higher than the published verified count; expect the ketamine IV number to climb materially in the next edition.

Can I republish this data?

Yes. The aggregated state-level counts and methodology in this report are released under CC BY 4.0 - free to republish, adapt, and analyze with attribution to LicensedPsychedelics. Individual provider records and license numbers are not covered by this license (those remain our copyrighted work).

How often will this update?

Quarterly. The next edition lands in July 2026 with the New Mexico medical psilocybin program rollout factored in and the Colorado cohort expanded to what we expect will be 110 plus providers.
