Description

A certified psychedelic therapist explores the deeper healing offered by psychedelics to those working through trauma.
 
"Micah has created a must-read for anyone curious about the healing power of psychedelics. Healing Psychedelics demystifies the process and emphasizes safety and effectiveness, making it an essential guide for both new explorers and seasoned practitioners."
--Jessika Lagarde, psychedelic-assisted medicine facilitator, integration coach, and cofounder of Women On Psychedelics

 
Psychedelics are showing great promise as a new way to heal trauma and improve emotional wellness. Studies reveal that they can be effective in reducing PTSD, anxiety, and depression symptoms, even in cases that are resistant to other treatments. Stover offers a comprehensive and informative guide for both professionals and patients who are interested in learning more about psychedelic-assisted therapy.
 
Each chapter reveals a vignette taken directly from the psychedelic space that shows the medicines (medium and macro-doses of MDMA, psilocybin, ketamine, and cannabis), why they were chosen, and the process used for transformation during the sessions. Stover weaves in wisdom from indigenous and Mexican healers and practitioners with application exercises, writing prompts, and journal entries to deepen the reader's healing journey. These exercises are applicable to all readers, whether you are working on your own or with a therapist.
 
Healing Psychedelics shows the complete process, enabling the reader to safely unlock the power of psychedelics to heal trauma and transform their life for a brighter future.

About this Author

Micah Stover's introduction to psychedelic therapy followed a traumatic pregnancy and birth that unearthed a reservoir of unresolved trauma. The journey to heal those wounds transformed her life. In 2022, Micah began training with the Psychedelic Somatic Institute in Denver, Colorado. She completed the apprenticeship level 1 and 2 certification and is finalizing her certificate of mastery. In Micah's current role as a certified psychedelic somatic therapist, she hosts individual healing retreats and trains psychedelic practitioners.

Reviews

"Micah's book finally gives the us and the world of psychedelics a book that does justice to the long and often lengthy process of using psychedelics to support healing trauma. Her honest description of this process highlights both challenges and the great rewards that lie ahead of anyone seeking to use psychedelics for healing their trauma. As a seasoned psychedelic therapist myself, I am relieved that Micah has written this book as it brings attention to the not-so-quick-fix nature of these experiences, sheds light on the cultural narrative of the 'panacea' that surrounds psychedelic medicine, and brings the reader a more realistic view of the healing journey these medicine journeys are here to carry us through."

Read this book and discover how psychedelics can transform your journey through trauma."
--Jessika Lagarde, psychedelic-assisted medicine facilitator, integration coach, and cofounder of Women On Psychedelics

"Micah bravely addresses both the light and shadow encountered when a therapist and client embark on this transformative journey together. She touches on the origins of this medicine honoring indigenous teachers who have protected and shared it for centuries. Through her expertise and compassionate insight, Micah illustrates how a carefully nurtured therapeutic relationship has the potential to change not just individuals, but the world."
--Rev. Liliana Barzola, curandera and founder of Lotus Lantern Healing Arts  

"In Healing Psychedelics, therapist Micah Stover presents a self-help guide to the benefits and encouraging results of psychedelic-assisted therapy, even with treatment-resistant anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Healing Psychedelics is a compelling self-help book that argues that psychedelics can be powerful allies in healing psychological, emotional, and spiritual wounds."
