Integrating Psychedelic Experiences Utilizing the Internal Family Systems Therapeutic Model
Year: 2020
Type: article
Abstract: This paper introduces the potential benefits of utilizing an innovative, evidence-based framework to support clients' integration of their psychedelic experiences, while also presenting personal views and cautionary feedback offered by a sampling of practitioners, authors, and laypeople that have directly utilized psychedelics, and/or are working with clients utilizing psychedelics.The opportunity to employ a framework that shares in common with psychedelic experiences essentials such as an awareness of oneself as greater than the sum of one's parts, the transformational qualities of embodied experiences, and a nonpathologizing perspective is seen as an ideal in the growing field of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapies.
