In this episode, we explore the growing interest in psilocybin-assisted therapy, a promising treatment for frontline workers with anxiety, depression, and PTSD. We discuss clinical studies and legislative initiatives examining the controlled use of psilocybin in therapeutic settings, combined with professional counseling. Our guests, Tess Burzynski, mycologist and Co-founder of NOVEL Health, and Hosam Issa, Director of Clinical Operations at NOVEL Health, share insights on integrating psilocybin into therapy, supporting trauma and PTSD treatment, and fostering public dialogue about alternative mental health treatments.
