Territory Acknowledgement
Our broadcast venue Sunset Labs sits on the traditional, ancestral, unceded homelands of the Lekwungen people, now also known as the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations. We endeavour to honour this land and its treaties by strengthening our relationship and responsibilities to them, and we acknowledge and thank the Lekwungen people, on whose land we live, work, create, dance and play.
While psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy was found to be a safe and often transformative process, psychedelic experiences that take place in non-controlled settings like parties and festivals, in addition to potentially leading to healing and growth, carry the potential to become an extremely traumatic experience and even a prolonged psychotic episode.
During this talk we explored the ethics and guidelines of psychedelic harm reduction and crisis intervention through case studies of challenging psychedelic experiences that took place in various musical events and were supported by a team of experienced harm reduction sitters.
Nir Tadmor is a transpersonal psychotherapist in private practice and a co-founder of Safe Shore – a psychedelic education, harm reduction and peer support project. He holds a Master’s in Transpersonal Psychology from Middlesex University (through the Alef Trust) and trained in Hakomi body-centered psychotherapy.
