Low Dose, Big Gains

You've heard about psychedelic therapy. But have you heard about psycholytic psychedelic therapy? It's not about going deep into an altered state β€” it's about going just far enough. A psycholytic (lower-dose) approach uses psychedelics to create a gentle, non-ordinary state of mind. You stay in your body, and with a therapist by your side, the usual walls come down just enough to make real therapeutic work possible.

Introduction to Internal Family Systems & Psychedelic Assisted Therapy

Internal Family Systems (IFS), developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz, offers a clear and structured framework for working with the β€œparts” that emerge in therapy. Rather than pathologizing symptoms, IFS understands each part as having a protective intention. Healing occurs when clients access Self energy, a grounded state characterized by calm, clarity, compassion, and curiosity. This live, virtual training introduces the foundations of IFS and explores how it can be thoughtfully applied across preparation, in session work, and integration therapy.
