Founder/CEO
Dr. Lola Ohonba, Pharm.D, C.Ph, CPTR, is a Clinical Consultant Pharmacist with over 21 years of clinical experience. She is the founder and CEO of WCI Health, an alternative health and wellness hub; and PsychEntheo Consultancy, a mental health company committed to providing affordable therapy with an emphasis on harm reduction and the total well-being of the human spirit, mind, and body using their one-of-a-kind innovative platform, PsychEntheo Consult App.
Dr. Ohonba is a Professor of Psychedelic and Cannabinoid Medicine, a certified MDMA/Psychedelic-Assisted Therapist, and a Researcher from the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) and Lykos Therapeutics (MAPS). Her journey into the world of natural medicine began with her fascination with indigenous healing practices and their profound impact on mental health and addiction recovery.
She has spent years researching and working alongside many indigenous tribes, including the Yorubas, explicitly focusing on the therapeutic use of entheogenic plants. Her work has brought her to the forefront of conversations about alternative treatments for addiction and other mental health disorders, particularly in understanding the use of Iboga-Ibogaine as a powerful tool in aid of detoxification and psychological healing.
As a thought leader and advocate, Dr. Ohonba is dedicated to bridging the gap between conventional Western medicine and traditional plant-based healing modalities. She is educating the medical community and the public about the benefits and risks of Ibogaine and other Entheogenic-Assisted Therapy (Natural Medicine (Psilocybin) Facilitator Certification Training).
Dr. Ohonba's goal is to promote safe, ethical, and culturally sensitive practices that respect the traditions of the Bwiti Tribe and other indigenous communities from which these medicines originate. She is one of the Directors of The Entheogenic Society Africa for Alternative Medicine (TESAAM), a non-profit charitable organization working to preserve indigenous wisdom and provide supportive services to children and young adults transitioning from foster homes to public life in Africa and the Diaspora.
In addition to her work with indigenous herbalists and healers, Dr. Ohonba is a sought-after speaker and consultant, contributing her expertise at conferences and seminars globally.
