What to Expect from a Therapeutic Psychedelic Experience with Dr. Matthew Johnson


Listen Later

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Matthew Johnson about the use of psychedelic therapy for enhancing mental health.

Dr. Johnson is a Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Johns Hopkins University and most recently a Senior Investigator in Psychedelics at Sheppard Pratt further. He is one of the world’s most published scientists on the human effects of psychedelics, and has conducted seminal research in the behavioral economics of drug use, addiction, and risk behavior. Dr. Johnson was the 2019 President of the Psychopharmacology and Substance Abuse Division of the American Psychological Association, and is currently President of the International Society for Research on Psychedelics.

Our discussion spans the fundamental aspects of these substances, their application in therapy, and what one can expect from a psychedelic experience. This conversation sheds light on the preparation required prior to embarking on such a journey, offers detailed insights on dosage and the experience itself, and emphasizes the importance of integration post-experience. 

If the exploration of psychedelic medicine's healing potential captivates you, this episode is not to be missed.
