🌱 🍄 Thrilled to Announce My Recent Graduation in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy! 🌱 🍄

After an incredible journey at the Integrative Psychiatry Institute in Boulder, Colorado, I’m excited to share that I’ve completed my training in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy. This experience has been transformative, filled with learning, exploration, and deep appreciation for the potential of psychedelic medicine.

Throughout the program, I gained a profound understanding of how psychedelics, used within a structured therapeutic framework, can foster meaningful breakthroughs for people facing various mental health challenges. It reinforced to me how crucial it is to give people the autonomy to choose the treatment paths that resonate with them, tailoring care to their unique needs and values. Informed choice is empowering, and I am a strong advocate for bringing more of that to mental health care.

I’m beyond excited to see how this field will evolve in Ireland over the coming years and look forward to being part of this innovative wave. With the world increasingly recognising the importance of mental health, I’m hopeful that Ireland will be at the forefront of integrating these treatments into our healthcare options, providing more people with alternative paths to healing.

Here’s to a future of expanded mental health options and to being part of a pioneering community committed to holistic, accessible, and personalised care.

Very excited to announce, today I start my training in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy in Colorado with the Integrative Psychiatry Institute for the next year ☺️ I applied for this a few months ago and have been working in the background to pass all the prerequisites (30 exams 😳) to reach today 🎉🙌🏽 extremely excited for what the year ahead will bring. I will be learning how to work with Psilocybin, M**A, L*D, plant based medicines and Ketamine. While also respecting and integrating the psychedelic mystical experience and respecting the power of plants being teachers. This i believe is the future of how we will work in field of psychology, particularly with certain difficulties such as treatment resistant depression, PTSD, trauma, anxiety, OCD, etc. The research in this field is so promising and is giving hope to so many. Australia has become the first country to legalise medical psychedelics such as M**A and Psilocybin for depression and PTSD, along with most states in the US offering Ketamine therapy and by next summer M**A and psilocybin. People are also looking for alternatives to pharmacology when it comes to treatment options and this may open to door to many who are suitable. Of course, this is not offered in Ireland at present and we’re extremely far away from that being a reality, but I want to advocate for this as an alternative for people and I felt this would be the best way at present for when that time is right.

Another great morning talking about my personal egg freezing journey (which is outlined in earlier posts). Was so great to share this with fertility Consultant Dr Eithne Lowe, who I also had the pleasure of learning so much from before we went on air. Fertility needs to be an open discussion and we need to receive more education on this here in Ireland as is impacts everyone. This isn’t just a physical journey, it’s also a very emotional one for anyone who embarks on it ❤️

What an amazing morning on , talking all things regarding Leaving Cert stress and anxiety, both for the students and parents. Remember the 5,4,3,2,1 skill can be used anytime and anywhere. It’s amazing for getting us into the present moment using our 5 senses. It’s super easy to do, so….5 things you can see around you, 4 things you can touch/feel (use different sensations), 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell and 1 thing you can taste.

So today has been a little heartbreaking for me 😢 went for my scan to start my stimulation tomorrow and a mass was found on my right o***y that wasn’t there 3/4 weeks ago. My Oestradiol (E2) was checked and it came back with a reading of 1873 pmol/L which is way above the normal levels. A review of my scans and bloods indicated a large follicle present and an attempt would need to be made to clear this before I can start treatment 💔 tonight I had to take Ovitrelle which is a trigger medication and from next week I have to take progesterone in a hope to clear it. Back in 3 weeks for a scan with all hope that I can start stimulation the week after. This really came as a massive blow to me as I had prepared myself both physically and psychological for the coming weeks. However, glad that this was found on time and that promote response was taken ☺️ keeping everything crossed my body will respond well to treatment and we can start the main journey in a months time 🤞🏽

“Chartered Membership is the platinum membership signifying the highest level of academic achievement. As a Chartered Psychologist, you are entitled to use the title: 'Chartered Psychologist of the Psychological Society of Ireland’ and the abbreviation 'C.Psychol., Ps.S.I.' after your name”

This will also make it easier for people wishing to use my services via their insurance providers.

A little update on my egg freezing journey, all my results are back and all is in the average range for my age, so I’m feeling very blessed with that 😇 My AMH levels (15) are average as well as my follicle count for my age. During my internal scan I had 7 visible follicles in each o***y, so 14 or so in total. Met with the fabulous consultant to go through everything last week. He is hoping I would get 10-15 eggs from this first cycle. The ‘golden’ number seems to be 15-20 eggs for 70% chance of a pregnancy, I know it doesn’t sound like a lot 😳 so he was suggesting that I think about a second cycle in the future to increase my chances going forward. Next step is lock in provisional dates and start stimulating the follicles with a hope for some healthy eggs! Massive thank you this process has been very welcoming so far and the team have been fabulous! Feel in really safe hands 🤲🏽 this isn’t an add just my honest viewpoint ☺️
