Show Notes:

In this episode, host Angie Berrett sits down with psychotherapist Alex Theberge to explore the healing potential of Ayahuasca and other psychedelics in trauma recovery. Together, they discuss why preparation and integration are just as important as the experience itself, and how these practices can lead to profound emotional breakthroughs.

Alex shares his personal path to becoming a psychotherapist and how his work with Ayahuasca helped him confront and release long-held emotional pain. He also sheds light on common fears surrounding psychedelics, the misconceptions that hold people back, and the crucial role of qualified guides in creating a safe, supportive environment.
