Join us as we explore the efficacy and healing potential of these powerful medicine. Inspired by her studies in neuroscience and Michael Pollan's "How to Change Your Mind," Eloise shares her research experiences with ketamine therapy at the Minneapolis VA, uncovering promising data on psychedelics like psilocybin and ketamine. Discover why these substances could offer sustainable mental health solutions that go beyond traditional pharmaceuticals, and hear about the ongoing efforts to reschedule MDMA for therapeutic use.
Ever wondered how MDMA can foster empathy and social engagement crucial for trauma healing? In this episode, Eloise explains the neurochemical mechanisms behind MDMA and discusses its potential FDA approval for PTSD treatment. With extensive clinical trials showcasing its efficacy and safety, we delve into why MDMA-assisted therapy requires careful preparation, dosing, and integration with a therapist. We also broaden our discussion to other psychedelics like psilocybin and LSD, emphasizing the importance of supervised use and the risks of unsupervised ketamine therapy.

Eloise Cherian attended Pomona College in Claremont, California where she studied Neuroscience. During the summer of 2022, she worked at the Minneapolis Department of Veteran Affairs as a research assistant on a clinical trial investigating the efficacy of ketamine and Prolonged Exposure therapy for PTSD. Currently, she is the Communications Coordinator for Sunstone Therapies, a mental health company dedicated to the research and delivery of psychedelic-assisted therapy, located in Rockville Maryland.
