The 1960s were a decade of upheaval, transformation, and questioning of social norms. During this time, psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin began to capture the public’s imagination, leading to a profound shift in cultural and spiritual perspectives. In this post, we’ll delve into how the countercultural movement fueled the rise of psychedelics, from early research and spiritual exploration to the social impact and backlash that followed. Finally, I’ll connect these historical roots to how psychedelics are being integrated responsibly in therapeutic practices today, including my own work.

In between therapy sessions, having tools you can rely on at home is crucial for maintaining your emotional health. Life’s challenges don’t just disappear after one therapy session, and sometimes, the day-to-day can feel overwhelming. That’s where at-home therapy techniques come in. These techniques help bridge the gap between sessions and can support your healing journey in real-time.

If you’re familiar with my work or curious about how psychedelic therapy can transform mental health, you've probably heard the term brain plasticity. But what does it really mean, and how can psychedelics like ketamine, psilocybin, and MDMA encourage lasting change in the brain?

Psychedelic-assisted therapy isn’t just a buzzword anymore—it’s a rapidly growing field that’s catching the attention of everyone from top scientists to people seeking new ways to heal. But what exactly is psychedelic therapy?

In today’s fast-paced world, it's common to seek guidance to navigate life’s challenges, overcome obstacles, and achieve personal growth. But with so many options available, it can be difficult to decide whether to pursue therapy or life coaching. Both approaches are valuable and aim to support you in your journey, but they differ significantly in their methodologies, goals, and the types of issues they address.
