“Beyond Talk Therapy: Integrating Body, Mind, and Medicine”
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Cassandra Riding for a powerful conversation on expanding the possibilities of traditional therapy through integrative and alternative modalities, including psychedelics, somatics, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and more.
We explore how psychedelic therapies like ketamine and psilocybin can facilitate deep, lasting transformation—often accelerating healing and, in some cases, reducing the need for long-term SSRI use. Cassandra also shares the mind–body–spirit practices she weaves into her work and the passion that drives her patient-centered approach. Her philosophy is simple yet profound: meet people where they are and walk alongside them on a healing journey that creates real, sustainable change.
Cassandra Riding is a clinical mental health counselor and founder of Soul Pathways Wellness. She holds a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi and completed psychedelic-assisted therapy training through the Integrative Psychiatric Institute.
Her work blends body, mind, and spirit, drawing from EMDR, Internal Family Systems, DBT, mindfulness, and ketamine-assisted therapy to support whole-person healing. Cassandra helps clients navigate trauma, attachment wounds, identity shifts, and spiritual or religious transitions, with an emphasis on reconnecting to inner wisdom and grounded intuition.
In her ketamine-assisted therapy work, she focuses on intentional preparation, clear structure, and meaningful integration so insights translate into real, embodied change.
Cassandra brings a warm, intuitive, and clinically grounded presence that creates a space for emotional and spiritual healing to unfold safely and authentically.
