Does Psychedelic Therapy Training Make You a Better Therapist?

Psychedelic-assisted therapy asks a lot of the clinician. It calls for presence, attunement, comfort with non-ordinary states, and a steady relationship with uncertainty. Many practitioners who train in this work say it changes how they show up in every session, not only psychedelic ones. But is that true, and what's really going on?

Join us for a candid look at the skills the training builds, including holding space, working with the therapeutic relationship, trauma-informed practice and integration. We'll talk about how those skills carry over into everyday clinical work, and where the limits of that carryover are.

You'll explore

• The core competencies psychedelic therapy training develops
• How those skills show up in conventional therapeutic settings
• What practitioners say about how their practice has changed
• What to look for in a training program

Who it's for

Therapists, counsellors, psychologists and other mental health practitioners who are curious about psychedelic therapy training, whether or not they plan to offer psychedelic-assisted sessions.
