Psychedelic Integration Therapy in Vancouver

Psychedelic Integration

Make sense of your psychedelic experiences in a safe, supportive environment.

At Leia Shay Counselling, we offer psychedelic integration therapy to help individuals process and integrate insights from their psychedelic journeys. Whether you’re seeking clarity after a therapeutic, spiritual, or recreational experience, we are here to support you in making meaning of these profound encounters.

What Is Psychedelic Integration Therapy?
Psychedelic integration therapy is a form of counselling that helps individuals understand and incorporate the insights, emotions, and revelations that arise from psychedelic experiences. While psychedelics have been used to explore consciousness and facilitate healing, these experiences can sometimes leave individuals with lingering questions, unresolved emotions, or a sense of confusion about how to apply what they’ve learned to their everyday lives.

At Leia Shay Counselling, we provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore these experiences, process their emotional impact, and integrate the lessons into your personal growth and well-being.
