“The Interconnection of Psychedelic Spirituality, Social Justice, and BIPOC Therapist Engagement in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy”

Candace Oglesby and Yvan Beaussant, CSWR, Psychedelic Intersections: 2024 Conference Anthology

Candace Oglesby and Yvan Beaussant presents a qualitative study of the experiences of BIPOC therapists who are familiar with or have practiced psychedelic-assisted therapy. They enumerate the barriers BIPOC therapists face to their involvement in psychedelic-assisted therapy, and they gesture to the central role that social justice must play in therapy for BIPOC therapists, psychedelic or otherwise.
