Turning Insights Into Action In Psychedelic Therapy – Keith Kurlander & Dr. Will Van Derveer – HPP149

Transformation happens when moments of clarity are translated into lasting change, but this process is rarely simple. In this episode, we highlight the challenges of psychedelic integration, focusing on the difficulty of turning powerful insights into actual behavioral shifts. Drawing from neuroscience and psychology, we explore the hard work required for real change, including the pitfalls of repetitive sessions and the struggle to remain committed and consistent. Our discussion emphasizes the importance of values-based change, understanding deeper motivations, and using tools like journaling, parts work, accountability partnerships, and self-awareness practices. Recognizing the lack of societal support for genuine transformation, we encourage patience, self-compassion, and strategies for sustaining growth long after the dosing session ends.
