Educational Objectives:

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

• Identify five methods of entering non-ordinary states of consciousness.
• Describe three models of psychedelic use.
• Identify clients who are at risk for negative outcomes in the use of psychedelics.
• Name two resources used to reduce the harm associated with using psychedelics.

Workshop Description:

What do you believe about the use of psychedelics? What do you do when your client asks about using them? Are these medications miraculous or dangerous?

So many questions, and it's so hard to find unbiased information! The psychedelic renaissance is upon us, and more and more people want to know how to access psychedelic therapy. This course will cover the basics of the three drugs used most often in treatment: MDMA, psilocybin, and ketamine.

This workshop will review and share the model of psychotherapeutic support for psychedelics used in clinical trials. Handouts and relevant articles will be provided.

We will touch on harm reduction and providing psychoeducation and resources for the safer use of psychedelics. Trending issues such as the lack of access for BIPOC populations and cultural appropriation will also be covered.

Presented by: Mary Gresham, Ph.D.

Dr. Mary Gresham has been fascinated by psychology since her first year at Tulane. She got her Master’s in Clinical Psychology at Emory University and her doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Georgia State University in 1987. She feels lucky to be in a field where the older you are, the more others listen to you! In 2019 she attended the California Institute for Integral Studies program for certification in Psychedelic Therapy and Research in San Francisco for a year-long training program. She currently works at Emory as a facilitator for clinical trials using psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression and cancer-related demoralization. She is just back from the 2023 Psychedelic Science conference in Denver and is excited about the possibilities ahead.
