(HS Schwartz 096255 2022) The Internal Family Systems Approach to Psychedelic Experiences
Tracking # 20-940996
Course overview
The psyche is a delicate ecosystem and psychedelics are powerful agents that can affect it profoundly. That effect can be very positive but also there is the potential for extreme disruption. We propose a non-pathologizing map based on Internal Family Systems Therapy to this inner territory that helps facilitators and subjects alike maintain steady presence and not overreact to sometimes dramatic shifts. This session will address probable risks and benefits and suggest this as a model for further research.
