Bill Brennan, PhD, is clinical psychologist, psychedelic researcher, educator, and author in New York City with over two decades of interest and involvement in psychedelic therapy. He has played a variety of roles across several psychedelic clinical trials, including lead trainer, core faculty, curriculum developer, clinical supervisor, and lead author on 8+ treatment manuals. He currently serves as a consultant to Cybin and Gilgamesh, two prominent psychedelic research companies, where he is involved in the development and delivery of their psychedelic treatment approaches.

Bill developed the EMBARK model of psychedelic therapy with Dr. Alex Belser, which has been used on four clinical trials to date. He and Dr. Belser authored a comprehensive guide to psychedelic treatment in this approach entitled ‘EMBARK Psychedelic Therapy for Depression: A New Approach for the Whole Person’, published by Oxford University Press. Bill has taught and presented on psychedelic therapy in other contexts, including as a speaker at the 2022 Interdisciplinary Conference for Psychedelic Research, as a lecturer with Psychedelics Today, and as a trainer with Fluence, Naropa University, and other organizations.
