Psychedelics & Racial Justice
Featuring Monnica T Williams, clinical psychologist and BIPOC Mental Health Expert

Psychedelic Harm Reduction and Integration in Clinical Practice
Featuring Elizabeth Nielson, co-founder of Fluence, one of the world's leading psychedelic-assisted therapy training organizations
What do you do when a client lets you know they are going to use psychedelics on their own? Is there anything you can do to help reduce harm? And what about micro-dosing, which is gaining popularity?
Psychedelic Harm Reduction and Integration (PHRI) is a transdiagnostic and transtheoretical approach that YOU as a mental health professional can take to having conversations with people who have taken psychedelics in clinical or non-clinical settings, or who are seeking help at any stage of psychedelic use. This session will cover the core concepts of PHRI and its applications, including discussions about micro-dosing, responding to requests for referrals to non-licensed providers, and working with difficult experiences.

Frequently Asked Questions
Immediately! You can start working through the course as soon as you register.
Your access to this course is unlimited for as long as you have your account.
Yes! Even if you won't go further and practice psychedelic-assisted therapies, we all need to understand this rapidly growing area of therapy. Clients are asking us about it, they are using psychedelics on their own, and many clients will come to your practice having been to ketamine clinics or other psychedelic therapies. Plus, your clients will need help navigating this world of therapies safely, and they need you to help them better understand the risks and benefits as they look to integrate these experiences.
Right now, licensed mental health professionals can engage in harm reduction practices (for when clients use outside of a licensed clinic) and in integration (helping clients integrate psychedelic experiences) and provide needed accurate information about risks and benefits.
This course is designed for exactly that — practical guidance and the latest insight not just for the future, but right here, right now.
