Psychedelic Assisted Treatment Unboxed with Anthony Gonzalez

TW: Today we're exploring a topic that may be triggering to some listeners. While psychedelic-assisted therapy can be a great option for some people, this discussion may be triggering. If you're struggling with substance use now or in the past, or even if you've had a loved one who's struggled with substances, I want to make sure everyone's prepared before we dive in. If there's even a chance that this topic could trigger you, skip it, and we'll reconnect on the next episode. How effective is psychedelic therapy? Are psychedelics safe for someone with PTSD or a history of addiction? In this episode, Lana talks with Anthony Gonzalez, LCSW, about the history of psychedelic use in a clinical setting, how LSD, MDMA, and psilocybin have evolved to treat mental health issues, and the different applications for PTSD, trauma, and addiction. They also discuss how psychedelic-assisted therapy differs from indigenous ceremonial medicines, the metaphysical component, and how pop culture can contribute to stigma, cultural appropriation, and greater awareness.
