Before reading and following the information below, please contact me at eric@roadtocompassion.com to see if I have room for new clients. If you are interested in PSIP training, go to the Psychedelic Somatic Institute (PSI) website​.

 

Because Psychedelic Somatic Interactional Psychotherapy (PSIP) is very deep trauma work, it is important to be well informed and prepared. Please read all of the information below before we meet to explore the possibility of working together.

 

Cannabis and Ketamine are the medicines used with PSIP, but PSIP can also be done without medicine. PSIP is ongoing therapy. Significant healing can happen after 8 months to a year of steady PSIP, but the work often continues from there. The initial phases of the work - establishing trust and building up your resources - are done over Zoom. Medicine sessions generally happen in person, with some excdeptions.

​

If you are interested in receiving PSIP from me, please follow the steps listed below before contacting me.

 

1. Watch video number 1 on this page of the Psychedelic Somatic Institute website. (From the same page, video 2, video 3, and the White Paper are also recommended.)

2. Read the four short articles on this page.

3. PSIP can bring up some of our deepest trauma, so it is important to be well-resourced.  Take some time to reflect on how consistent you are with your self-care and how well you can bring yourself back to calm when you are stressed or upset. 

​

If, after following the above steps you are interested in working with me with PSIP, please email me at eric@roadtocompassion.com and include the following information:

 - Roughly how much time you spend doing things that help you feel peaceful, happy, and grounded, things such as exercise, meditation, yoga, time in nature, creative expression, and quality time with friends;

- The tools and resources you have for returning to calm when you are stressed or upset;

- Your experience with psychedelic-assisted healing/therapy and your experience with other types of therapy or inner healing work.
