Join us March 13 for an evening dedicated to exploring psychedelic medicine and wellness, with a specific focus on Ibogaine and its emerging role in supporting veterans living with PTSD through the documentary showing of ‘In Waves and War’. This gathering is designed for clinicians, veterans, caregivers, and community members who are curious about non-traditional healing pathways, while holding respect for the seriousness, risks, and depth of this work.

The event will take place in a private theater with immersive surround sound, creating a contained and intentional space to witness, reflect, and engage in dialogue. After the screening we will be having a conversation with a community member with lived experience.

Link tickets in bio!

This event is part of a 5-part film screening series designed to explore the evolving landscape of psychedelic medicine, mental health, trauma recovery, and human connection. Each screening features a carefully selected documentary, followed by facilitated community dialogue with clinicians, lived-experience voices, and wellness practitioners.

The series invites participants to deepen their understanding of psychedelic medicines through education, storytelling, ethics, preparation, safety, and integration—with a strong emphasis on trauma-informed and community-based care.
