In my approach to working with clients who use psychedelic medicines, I define integration as making meaning of, and applying insights from, the psychedelic experience. I believe that integration can be the most important and powerful part of a psychedelic experience. Whether the experience is recreational, ceremonial, or medically supervised, profound insights can be gained during a psychedelic experience. My aim is to facilitate my clients’ process in making those insights last long-term by supporting them in making personal and habitual changes.
Psychedelic integration work might not last as long as traditional therapy. However, it is just as important that we take some time in initial sessions to get to know each other in the therapeutic relationship before we can move forward in finding the right way for you to integrate your psychedelic experience.
DISCLAIMER: I, Gabrielle Wolk, PsyD of New Moon Counseling, PLLC do not provide psychoactive or illicit substances to clients, nor do I promote or condone their use. I do not conduct or promote psychedelic psychotherapy outside of approved clinical trials or supervised, legal medical settings. I do not provide referrals to “underground” (illegal) psychedelic services.
