Join us as we explore:

The psychedelic renaissance is here. What does that mean from a South African psychiatrist’s point of view.

What psychedelics are, the wide spectrum of diagnoses/disorders they address and how their potential is supercharged by intentionally designed psychotherapy.

The psychedelic options available today, what could be coming soon and how Dr Moola has seen how just three deep dose sessions in 6 months leave patients free of disorders and medication.

The catastrophic crisis of mental health that has only been made more confusing and complex by failing interventions without effective outcomes, and the incredible promise psychedelics offer as a revolutionary way forward.

What integrative psychology is, and its role in doing a “dopamine detox”.

How nutrition, light diet, movement and lifestyle are as crucial to psychiatric care as medication.

Why patients don’t need to hear a diagnosis. They need to hear a solution!
