Routledge (Verlag)
9781032978468 (ISBN)
This book serves as a vital resource for clinicians, therapists, and individuals aiming to integrate their psychedelic experiences through the transformative practice of Art Therapy. Rooted in a Trauma‑informed approach, Psychedelics and Art Therapy: A Trauma‑Informed Manual for Somatic Self Discovery offers guidance on navigating the profound psychological and emotional shifts that often accompany such journeys.
This book combines creative exercises with meditation and neuroscientific insights to show how Art Therapy can effectively reroute neural pathways, fostering sustained emotional well‑being and personal growth. In an era where the underground market of psychedelic therapy is often unsafe and commercially driven, this book advocates for a sustainable approach to healing that prevents habitual reliance on these substances. Authored by an Art Therapist with over a decade of specialized experience in psychedelic preparation and integration, this book transcends the underground stigmas associated with drug culture, offering a trusted path to healing grounded in therapeutic practices that honor transpersonal and Indigenous wisdom.
As the conversation around Psychedelics in therapy evolves, this essential guide provides a structured and compassionate approach to integration and healing, ensuring long‑term personal empowerment and inner well‑being.
Charmaine Husum is an Art Therapist, Somatic Counselor, and Kundalini yoga and meditation instructor specializing in supporting those healing from trauma and training others in using Art Therapy within the psychedelic healing space.
