Therapists and Marijuana: What You Need to Know

The thing about marijuana is that it stops working, and what I mean by that is because there's progression, because there's tolerance.
Ever wondered how marijuana fits into the world of therapy? Betsy Byler, a seasoned therapist and substance abuse counselor, tackles this very topic in her podcast episode on 'All Things Substance'. With marijuana becoming more mainstream and legalization on the horizon, it's crucial for therapists to stay informed about its various aspects. Betsy breaks down the basics: from THC potency and consumption methods to the risks of tolerance and long-term health effects.
She even dives into the creation of marijuana hybrids designed for specific effects. But it’s not just about the science; Betsy emphasizes the importance of evaluating marijuana use objectively, cutting through the noise of legalization debates. This episode is a must-listen for any therapist looking to enhance their understanding of marijuana from a mental health perspective. Whether you're dealing with clients who use marijuana or simply want to be better informed, Betsy's insights are invaluable.
