Ask a Therapist

Psychedelic experiences can open the door to profound insights, emotions, and shifts in perspective—but preparation and integration are often what determine whether those experiences lead to lasting positive change. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive space to clarify intentions, navigate challenging experiences, and make meaning of what arises afterward. Join us for this "Ask a Therapist" gathering, where you'll have the opportunity to learn about the role of therapy in psychedelic preparation and integration, explore common questions and concerns, and engage in an open conversation with an experienced therapist about the healing potential and practical realities of working with psychedelics.
