RECAP: Exploring the Intersection of Healing and Joy: A Talk on MDMA with Stephanie Karzon and Jane Garnett

Stephanie and Jane’s discussion illuminated the therapeutic potential of MDMA, particularly its ability to foster emotional openness and connectivity, which can be crucial in healing from trauma. They explored how MDMA-assisted therapy could provide breakthroughs where traditional treatments have failed, offering new hope for patients with severe PTSD.

Stephanie provided an in-depth analysis of the pharmacological mechanisms of MDMA and its effects on the brain, emphasizing its role in reducing fear and defensiveness while enhancing empathy and trust. This unique combination can help patients process traumatic memories more effectively during therapy sessions. She highlighted ongoing research and shared promising results from recent studies that indicate MDMA’s potential to revolutionize PTSD treatment.

Jane discussed the clinical application of MDMA-assisted therapy, drawing from her experience with EMDR and other therapeutic modalities. She highlighted the importance of integrating MDMA with psychotherapy to maximize its benefits. Jane also addressed the stigma surrounding psychedelic therapies and the need for comprehensive education to dispel myths and encourage acceptance of these innovative treatments.

PODCAST – Guided Counsel Interview’s District216 Founder Jacob Tell

Every single one of us have one thing in common. We are born into a journey. We aren’t born with nothing to do. As a child, you may remember how you used to “see” things, talk to imaginary friends, didn’t fit in, or maybe you just felt much “older” than your peers. You were led by your intuition and imagination. As we get older and start following the rules of the schools and society, we tend to put our child-powers in the back burner. Not to be forgotten, but left there to wait for the right time to start peeking out of its cave, and seeking attention. If this is you, you are at the right place and we welcome you.?
