Abstract
This paper introduces the potential benefits of utilizing an innovative, evidence-based framework to support clients’ integration of their psychedelic experiences, while also presenting personal views and cautionary feedback offered by a sampling of practitioners, authors, and laypeople that have directly utilized psychedelics, and/or are working with clients utilizing psychedelics. The opportunity to employ a framework that shares in common with psychedelic experiences essentials such as an awareness of oneself as greater than the sum of one’s parts, the transformational qualities of embodied experiences, and a nonpathologizing perspective is seen as an ideal in the growing field of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapies.
Annotation
This article posits that clinicians should use IFS to help their clients with the integration progress after the client's psychedelic experience. The author suggests that IFS shares a common framework with psychedelic experiences that makes IFS uniquely suited to use in integration. This article is of limited value to researchers on its own, but points to the need for future research on the utility of IFS in psychedelic integration.
