Do you feel stuck on your healing journey? In this episode, I talk with Liz Zhou, LPC about the benefits of psychedelic medicine for highly sensitive people and:  

• The three steps to safely and meaningfully experience psychedelics in a therapeutic context 

 • How to find a provider, which medicine to choose, and the importance of advocating for your sensory and emotional needs along the way 

• What you can learn about yourself throughout the experience 

Liz is a highly sensitive & neurodivergent therapist based in Colorado. She specializes in helping highly sensitive, neurodivergent adults & couples heal their nervous systems and connect with their authentic selves, using brain-body modalities like: EMDR, Brainspotting, IFS, & Psychedelic Integration. Prior to becoming a therapist, Liz worked as a shaman's translator & ceremony facilitator at plant medicine centers in Peru & Ecuador.
