Most people think integration means holding onto insights.

But as a psychodynamic psychotherapist with deep interest in psychedelic integration work, I see it differently.

Your psyche used that altered state to show you the patterns that have shaped your life for decades.

- That terrifying dissolution? Your relationship to control.
- The sense of cosmic, divine love? A needed contrast to how harshly you treat yourself every day.

Integration isn’t about remembering the trip.

It’s about changing what the trip revealed.

And that work (no surprise here) takes time.
