Psychedelic assisted therapies using plant medicines are a hot topic in the psychology field & beyond. A key question seems to be - can the transcendent experiences stimulated by psychedelics help us safely into better states of mental & emotional health? Wisdom traditions the world over would argue that yes, they can. But how can we best use plant medicines outside of their traditional cultural settings? Or in secular clinical settings? As professionals focused on alleviating suffering, how do we develop new therapies that incorporate plant medicines in ways that are safe & evidence based?

In this episode we discuss all this & more with Dr Ava Ghasemi - Clinical Psychologist & certified psychedelic assisted psychotherapist. There's too much in this topic to possibly fit into one episode, so this is definately part one of a series on this fascinating topic.
