Coming Soon: Inside the Nightmare
Holding the frame so your client can fall apart. Clinical skills, personal essays, and candid reflections on the complex, often unseen side of psychedelic therapy.
I will be sharing what I’ve learned over the years of stepping inside many nightmares, including my own. This will be tailored for clinicians/practitioners that are currently in training or has completed the PSIP program, as well as the psychedelic therapy community as a whole. I will be covering a range of topic, just to name a few:
Making the implicit, explicit
When contact is received as resourcing/rescuing vs. solution
The value of pressurization (pausing management strategies)
Things to look out for in long-term meditators
The richness of projections on physical contact
Uncoupling the mind from Primary Processing
When to ignore sympathetic charge
Helpful reenactments vs. Unhelpful reenactments
My hope is to articulate the sundry challenges that prevent our clients from dropping inside their nightmare, as well as the range of clinical skills that allow us to support our clients to metabolize their nightmare in an ethical way.
I will also be sharing my offerings for group consultations down the line.
