What happens when traditional treatments aren’t enough for trauma?

In this episode of Beyond the Dose, Michelle Harrell sits down with Michelle Orr to discuss the life-changing work of Veterans Exploring Treatment Solutions (VETS) — a nonprofit providing safe, legal psychedelic therapy options for veterans and their spouses.

Together, they explore the realities many veterans face after service, including PTSD, depression, relationship strain, and the heartbreaking reality of veteran suicide rates. This conversation sheds light on how psychedelic-assisted therapies, including Ibogaine, MDMA, and Psilocybin, are helping veterans process trauma, reconnect with themselves, and rebuild their lives.

You’ll hear powerful insights on:

• Why trauma impacts the entire family system
• The critical role spouses play in the healing journey
• How MDMA supports trust, connection, and emotional safety
• Why integration and community support are essential after psychedelic experiences
• How programs like VETS are working to reduce stigma and expand access to care
