John Clarke, LPCC

In this episode, I am joined by Payam, a facilitator specializing in plant medicine, psychedelics, and trauma healing. We explore the intricacies of integrating shamanic practices with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, gaining insights into self-awareness, capacity building, and ethical facilitation in transformative healing journeys. 

Part 1 of our conversation delves into navigating complex trauma, understanding self-energy, and the delicate balance required when working with psychedelic medicines in therapeutic contexts. Join us next week for Part 2!

Key Takeaways from this Episode:

1. Understanding Our Limits as a Therapists and Healers: It's crucial for therapists and healers to understand their own limits and capacities before guiding clients through deep healing processes.

2. Synergy of Shamanic and IFS Practices: Payam teaches us how shamanic practices can complement IFS therapy, offering additional tools for navigating inner landscapes and facilitating trauma healing.

3. Ethical Use of Psychedelic Therapy: We emphasize the need for ethical facilitation and responsible use of psychedelic medicines in trauma work, focusing on containment, integrity, and client safety.

4. Navigating Complex Trauma Structures: Our discussion provides insights into working with complex personality structures and creating a safe container for clients to explore and integrate their inner experiences.

5. Holistic Healing Approach: Payam believes in a holistic approach to healing, integrating various modalities to support clients' mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
