PsyCare Services

Lunar PsyCare provides psychological and psychedelic care as well as crisis intervention within festival and event settings - meeting people in vulnerable moments - where they are and when it matters the most.

Lunar PsyCare fosters a holistic approach that goes beyond crisis response. The goal is not just to manage difficult experiences, but to help transform them into moments of genuine learning and lasting change with an accepting and a non-judgmental attitude.

The work brings together a multidisciplinary team of doctors, paramedics, psychotherapists, nurses, somatic therapists and tripsitters - creating a professional support structure that is both clinically grounded and human in its approach.

What we offer

Psychological Care - grounded emotional and psychological support for individuals in distress or navigating overwhelming experiences

Psychedelic Care - specialised, informed support for those in non-ordinary states, rooted in respect for the experience rather than suppression of it

Crisis Intervention - immediate, skilled response when situations escalate, with a calm and trained team ready to act

Harm Reduction - practical, non-judgmental information and support to help people navigate their experiences safely

Sober Meet-Ups - a dedicated space for people in recovery or struggling with addiction, where they can connect and feel supported without pressure

On-Site Integration Circles - guided group sessions held while experiences are still raw, helping participants process and find meaning in what they've been through

On the Ground

Lunar PsyCare acts as an intermediary layer within the on-site care structure - working closely alongside paramedics and security personnel, both before and after medical handover. This means people are supported not only in moments of acute need, but also in the spaces around medical care, where human presence and psychological attunement matter just as much.

Most Notable Operation

The largest and longest-running Lunar PsyCare team is "Avozinha" at Waking Life Festival (with 12.000+ attendees) - a collaboration running since 2019 with a team of over 100 trained members.

What people say

"The way you and your team were able to hold space, create safety and help me process one of the most significant events of my entire life, is incredible. The presence of Avozinha is the distance between a life changing, positive experience and a potentially life ending or life ruining experience. It's that important."
– Festival guest, Waking Life 2026

"I felt no judgment. Only care. That meant more than I can properly articulate. Thank you for the world you build. It gave me a space to face my shadow without judgment. I want to honour that."
– Festival guest, Waking Life 2026

“I owe a lot to Avozinha and the ways in which it’s run and organised - the way openness and care is encouraged and the environment is conducive to healing - more so than anywhere I have ever experienced. I wish I had an Avozinha in my backyard at home“
