Experiential Period Pre-work Module

Introduction

Module Description

In Fundamentals of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy, we approached psychedelic-assisted therapy from the perspective of a health professional wanting to support and guide clients through Preparation, Medicine, and Integration Sessions. In the Experiential Period of this course, you will be participating in Preparation, Medicine, and Integration Sessions in a way that aims to give you a sense of what a client's experience may be like with psychedelic-assisted therapy. As a result, this pre-work module will focus on reviewing key topics learned through the courses you’ve taken with Numinus thus far in order to maximize your own experience. You should complete this pre-work module prior to commencing the clinical component of the Experiential Period.
