Is traditional mental health care failing you or those you love? This comprehensive guide from integrative health experts Keith Kurlander, MA, and Will Van Derveer, MD, reveals how psychedelic therapy addresses deep-rooted trauma and offers hope for creating a life of balance, resilience, and meaning.

For those grappling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other mental health challenges—and those who feel let down by a fragmented and failing mental health system—Psychedelic Therapy offers a hopeful, evidence-based exploration of a novel approach to healing.

Keith Kurlander, MA, and Will Van Derveer, MD, leaders in the field of psychedelic therapy and trauma treatment, address the limitations of today’s mental health care, explaining how a focus on symptom management brings little relief and leaves many patients still desperate for healing. Drawing on clinical expertise, client stories, and the latest research, they reveal how psychedelic therapy uniquely targets the root causes of suffering, particularly trauma, a critical yet often misunderstood driver of mental health struggles.

This guide will help you:

• Understand trauma and why psychedelic therapy is uniquely suited to addressing it
• Learn about the substances commonly used in psychedelic therapy
• Navigate the process step by step, including preparation, dosing, and integration
• Prioritize safety by outlining key considerations for minimizing risk
• Gain insight for navigating any spiritual or psychological challenges that may arise

Whether you’re considering psychedelic therapy for yourself, supporting a loved one, or seeking professional insights as a mental health provider, this book equips you with the knowledge to find qualified practitioners, understand the process, and navigate challenging experiences with care and confidence.
