With the growing acceptance of psychedelic therapy, questions arise about the ethics, effectiveness, and experiences it brings. In this episode, Hillary addresses those questions in conversation with Geoff Turner, the host of CBC’s On Drugs podcast. Through historical clips and moments from actual sessions, they explore how substances are reshaping mental health treatment — including Hillary’s own experience as a patient — to talk about how psychedelic psychotherapy works. Using clips of the upcoming episodes, they talk about the big ethical questions, the big scientific questions, and what Hillary sees as the enormous promise of psychedelics to help people with their mental health.
