Psychedelics are a catalyst for deeper healing. Discover the healing power of psychedelics from a certified psychedelic therapist on your journey through trauma.
Psychedelics are showing great promise as a new way to heal trauma and improve emotional wellness. Studies have shown that they can be effective in reducing PTSD, anxiety, and depression, even in cases that are resistant to other treatments. With Healing Psychedelics, Stover offers a comprehensive and informative guide for both professionals and patients who are interested in learning more about psychedelic-assisted therapy. In a time when mystery, unrealistic expectations, and exorbitant prices make this therapy hard to access or understand, Healing Psychedelics aims to reduce the risk for harm and bring consciousness to the conversation. It covers everything you need to know, from preparation to integration, with an emphasis on safety and effectiveness.
Each chapter reveals a vignette taken directly from the psychedelic space that shows the medicine and process used for transformation during the sessions. These vignettes share what medicinal tools were applied and why, and include experiences working with medium and macro-doses of MDMA, psilocybin, ketamine, and cannabis. They also weave in wisdom from indigenous and Mexican healers and practitioners. The chapters close with application exercises, writing prompts, and journal entries to deepen the reader’s healing journey. These exercises are applicable to all readers, whether you are working on your own or with a therapist.
Healing Psychedelics shows the complete process, enabling the reader to safely unlock the power of psychedelics to heal trauma and transform their life for a brighter future.

“Micah’s book finally gives the us and the world of psychedelics a book that does justice to the long and often lengthy process of using psychedelics to support healing trauma. Her honest description of this process highlights both challenges and the great rewards that lie ahead of anyone seeking to use psychedelics for healing their trauma. As a seasoned psychedelic therapist myself, I am relieved that Micah has written this book as it brings attention to the not-so-quick-fix nature of these experiences, sheds light on the cultural narrative of the ‘panacea’ that surrounds psychedelic medicine, and brings the reader a more realistic view of the healing journey these medicine journeys are here to carry us through.”
