I think about integration as a little bit different than therapy. So it's really that process of taking the experience with the medicine and your experience, working with the medicine, The Days that follow, and integrating it into yourself to the goal of kind of supporting and developing a wholeness where I think about therapy and a little bit different than that and from a different kind of context and straight integration.
Feeling stuck in the battle against depression and anxiety? This episode of 'Atheists in Recovery' might just offer the fresh perspective you need. Host Kristen opens up about her background in mental health and how technology can break down barriers to care. She’s joined by Dr. Adina Silvestri, who shares her expertise on Ketamine therapy—a treatment that stands out from traditional medications by targeting different brain receptors.
Unlike the usual meds that flatten symptoms, Ketamine dives deeper, aiming to unearth and address the root causes of mental health issues. Dr. Silvestri explains how Ketamine acts as a dissociative, creating an intense but potentially transformative experience. The conversation covers everything from the neurobiology of Ketamine to practical steps for integrating this therapy into one's life. Kristen discusses a three-step process for making the most out of each treatment: journaling, bulleting key takeaways, and daily engagement with those insights.
They also touch on the safety and effectiveness of telehealth-guided Ketamine treatments, making it accessible to more people. This episode is a treasure trove of information for anyone curious about alternative treatments for depression and anxiety. It’s not just about the science; it’s about real-life application and how these therapies can foster a sense of wholeness. Whether you're new to the concept of Ketamine therapy or looking for deeper insights, this episode promises to be both enlightening and supportive.
