Psychedelics and Trauma Healing

As I was getting ready to write our blog about the benefits of Psychedelics for trauma healing, my dear friend Clara O’Rourke, who is a Doula and owner of Clear Light Birth, told me that the podcast episode in which I had been her guest was ready for release. I had never done a podcast interview, and doing so about my personal experience with infertility made me feel very vulnerable. I had talked to Clara in the past about my experience, and especially about how Ketamine assisted therapy has helped me with processing the hardships, both physical and emotional of infertility. She wanted to provide information about psychedelic assisted therapy as an emerging effective therapy to her community of users, in a way that was real, educational and safe. I’m so grateful to Clara for this interview, which definitely added to my healing process. She is a special person in my life and very dear to my heart, and though the interview definitely made me feel very vulnerable, both Mike and I thought that this podcast offered a real life perspective of the benefits of psychedelic assisted therapy when done responsibly, to work through trauma, adverse experiences or stressful life circumstances.
