  • My Process

    Overview of Experience:

    What is Psychedelic Integration Therapy?

    Psychedelic Integration Therapy is designed to support individuals who are preparing for or have recently experienced a therapeutic medicine journey. This process helps clients understand, incorporate, and reinforce the insights, realisations, and healing that emerged during their psychedelic experience with the guidance of a trained therapist.

    The primary benefit of psychedelic integration therapy lies in combining the transformative effects of psilocybin or other medicines with structured therapeutic support. This allows clients to delve into their journey in a safe, guided environment, helping them integrate their experiences holistically and meaningfully into their lives. Psilocybin has been shown to create new neural pathways, which can lead to lasting shifts in thoughts, behaviours, and patterns. With integration therapy, clients have a supportive foundation to cultivate these changes over time—similar to a newly repotted plant that, when nurtured, grows stronger roots.

    In addition, psychedelic integration therapy supports harm reduction by preparing clients for their experiences. By discussing the importance of “set and setting” and other safety considerations, clients can maximize the benefits of their experience and minimize potential adverse effects.

    What Does Psychedelic Integration Therapy Entail?

    Harm Reduction & Preparation – Planning for the journey to ensure safety and effectiveness
    Exploring Benefits, Risks, and Safety – Reviewing essential aspects for a safe experience
    Setting Intentions & Goals – Establishing personal intentions to guide the journey
    Reinforcing Insights – Strengthening the lessons learned during the experience
    Processing & Understanding – Reflecting on the experience to gain clarity and insight
    Spiritual Connection – Supporting a deeper connection to oneself and others
    Breaking Unhealthy Patterns – Addressing patterns and behaviors that no longer serve you
    Strengthening Healthy Patterns – Encouraging growth and positive changes

    Intake Process:

    Why Do I Offer This Approach?

    Psychedelic plant medicines like psilocybin have been used for centuries across cultures for healing and spiritual exploration. This is one of the most natural, holistic healing approaches available. Although not for everyone, studies indicate that psilocybin is non-addictive and generally safe when used in a structured, supportive environment.

    How Can I Begin?

    Lauren Lacey is a Masters trained Psychotherapist who has done post-graduate training with ATMA in Advanced psychedelic-assisted therapy and is accepting new clients. The intake process includes 2-3 1 hour sessions of preparation and 2-3 sessions of Integration. To book, please visit www.freeyourbody.com.au
