Integration Group
In the last decades renewed research into psychedelics has shown huge potential for their use in addressing mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and existential crises.
But to be truly effective these encounters have to be part of a larger process that takes whatever insights or clarity is gained and integrates them back into day-to-day life. This is also true of meditation retreats, nature solos, or other big experiences.
This 12-session group, beginning Monday September 18, 5 pm - 6:30 pm will be for anyone contemplating such an experience or wanting to integrate after one. It will provide a chance to explore beforehand what you want to get out of an experience, as well as how to fold that experience into real changes in your life after the it is done, all surrounded by a supportive community that wants to see you succeed. For more information about this process and my approach you can see my ongoing series of blog posts here.

When you’re new to the therapy process it can be overwhelming trying to figure out who you should talk to, in what format, and for how long. If you have questions about any of that then please reach out and I will be happy to talk through the options I offer and what might be a good fit for you. And if it seems like we’re not a good fit, then I’m happy to offer referrals to other clinicians who might fit the bill.
In general, if you’re new to talk therapy then individual sessions are going to be your best starting point. These sessions provide a chance to learn, in a low-pressure and guided context, the skills of cognitive, emotional, and somatic introspection and talking about your inner life that are essential to the process of therapy.
Group therapy can also be an excellent and lower-cost option for those who already have those skills (though I do require that we meet for several individual sessions before beginning in group, as a chance for us to get to know one another first). Groups are generally 5-10 members, and discussion will range from what is going on in individuals’ lives outside the group to feelings and reactions that are being generated in the group. Groups meet weekly, sessions are 90 minutes, and the duration of the group is generally open-ended. I ask for members to make a commitment to stay for at least 6 months - this both gives you a chance to see if it’s a good fit in a non-reactive way, and ensures the integrity of the group.
I also sometimes offer short-term groups around specific topics. Stay tuned to this page for more information about those as they come up.
