Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Psychedelic-assisted therapy (PAT) holds incredible promise for mental health, but without a clear framework, it can be risky, confusing, and even unsafe.This book provides that framework by integrating PAT with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy--a model that is uniquely suited to the multiplicity and intensity of the psychedelic state. Drawing on decades of clinical practice and research, the authors offer step-by-step guidance for every phase of the psychedelic journey, from preparation to dosing to integration.Inside, you'll learn how to: - Create a safe, therapeutic "set and setting" - Negotiate with protector parts to reduce backlash - Reduce the risk of "bad trip" reactions - Navigate the effects, risks, and contraindications of key psychedelics (ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin, ayahuasca) - Support clients through intense or confusing journeys - Guide clients in translating insights into lasting change - Honor the Indigenous roots of psychedelic medicine and practice ethicallyWhether you're new to IFS and PAT or an experienced clinician, this book is the blueprint you need to collaborate with the psyche and help clients access their innate healing wisdom.
