Psychedelic-assisted therapy has been clinically proven to treat trauma, but the headlines sometimes gloss over the nuances of this process. Dr. Amanda Khan, a clinical psychologist, shares her experience offering ketamine assisted therapy and post-psychedelic integration sessions. While psychedelics (such as MDMA, ketamine, and ayahuasca) can be powerful molecules for evoking change, healing trauma is a complex process that requires intention, preparation, and integration. Dr. Khan shares her knowledge from the clinical and research realm and we talk about how to use psychedelics safely and effectively to treat trauma, whether it’s PTSD, moral injury, or the everyday painful experiences that leaves an impact on our psyche.
