Internal Family Systems and Psychedelics with Dick Schwartz
Episode 16
Thursday, April 6, 2023 • Duration 46:39
“And now 40 years later, thousands of parts and thousands of people using this all over the world, we can safely say that Self is in everybody; it can’t be damaged, it knows how to heal, and it is just beneath the surface of these parts…and psychedelics seem to have a way to access that pretty quickly.”
Welcome to Integrating Psychedelics, featuring insights gleaned from psychedelic experiences and conversations around how to integrate this wisdom into our daily lives. I'm your host, Jenny Weinar, and in today's episode I'm speaking with Dick Schwartz.
Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, is the creator of Internal Family Systems, a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multi-part personality. His IFS Institute offers training for professionals and the general public. He is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, and has published five books, including No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model. Dick lives with his wife Jeanne near Chicago, close to his three daughters and his growing number of grandchildren.
In this conversation we discuss:
How listening to his patients led Dick to develop the therapeutic model of Internal Family Systems
How IFS is fundamentally different than most other paradigms for understanding the psyche
The role of inner child parts in the IFS framework
The goals of IFS and how it differs from mindfulness
How parts work fits naturally with psychedelics
The problem with the concept of ego dissolution
The relationship of IFS to set, setting and psychedelic facilitators
My personal experience incorporating IFS with ketamine
Why parts work is helpful for people who seemingly don’t respond to the medicine
How the inner work of IFS extends to social justice and the world at large
Why it’s vital to follow up with parts even after healing has occurred
Dick’s vision for the future of IFS
...and more!
You can learn more about IFS and purchase books by Dick Schwartz on the IFS Institute website.
You can connect with me on Instagram, through my website and very occasional newsletter. In addition to providing Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in Philadelphia, I offer Psychedelic Integration Therapy to residents of Pennsylvania, Colorado and New Jersey.

Sound Healing and Music for the Journey with Allison Soeung
Episode 15
Thursday, March 16, 2023 • Duration 40:03
“I do believe there is energy transferred along with music and the energy of the artist who wrote it; the intention that they put into the song carries through with it and you can hear those things and note how they make you feel.”
Welcome to Integrating Psychedelics, featuring insights gleaned from psychedelic experiences and conversations around how to integrate this wisdom into our daily lives. I'm your host, Jenny Weinar, and in today's episode I'm speaking with Allison Soeung.
Allison Soeung is a Licensed Sound Therapist and DJ based out of Northwest Arkansas. Allison has had a lifelong love affair with music. She played classical piano from age 6 to 18, when she traded in her piano for a set of DJ turntables, and has been performing music at diverse events from yoga festivals to nightclubs and music festivals ever since. She has always been a mystic at heart, and after the sudden and tragic death of her younger brother by suicide in 2015, she began devoting herself to a path of healing. After hearing about the potential of ketamine therapy in assisting with treatment-resistant depression (which her brother suffered from), Allison became passionate about curating sonic journeys to support the healing potential of this medicine. Today she enjoys curating ketamine therapy playlists that surprise and delight, facilitating sound bath meditations, and DJing at conscious dance events.
In this conversation we discuss:
Allison’s early interest in music and sound
The family tragedy that informed Allison’s understanding of mental illness
Allison’s introduction to Ketamine Assisted Therapy and profound first experience with the medicine
How Allison’s years of experience as a DJ and musician combined with her psychedelic experiences led her to the work she’s doing

"I do believe we need all the healers and all the coaches and everybody who’s called to this path of service to really step it up…Are we really waiting for being on the edge of destruction, or are we all invested into this path of awakening humanity and healing and being able to create this transformed planet?"
Welcome to Integrating Psychedelics, featuring insights gleaned from psychedelic experiences and conversations around how to integrate this wisdom into our daily lives. I'm your host, Jenny Weinar, and in today's episode I'm speaking with Beth Weinstein.

Wednesday, January 11, 2023 • Duration 52:16
“In traditional, more formal therapy, most of us are taught in school, ‘It’s a slippery slope to sexual abuse, don’t touch your clients’…In psychedelic therapy, there’s an understanding: touch can be beneficial…Deciding to not use an intervention based on your fear of litigation is not ethical.”
Welcome to Integrating Psychedelics, featuring insights gleaned from psychedelic experiences and conversations around how to integrate this wisdom into our daily lives. I'm your host, Jenny Weinar, and in today's episode I'm speaking with Sabrina Santa Clara.
Sabrina’s early career began as a massage therapist, embodiment educator and yoga instructor focused on the interchange of soma, psyche and spirit.

She is formally trained in a school of classical Shakta-Shaiva Tantra. Her personal experience of awakening while working with psychedelics led her to pursue a doctoral degree. That research served as the ground that eventually gave rise to the body of offerings she stewards, Somadelics.Somadelics is a contemporary path of psychedelic mysticism that makes use of the capacity of psychedelics to transform the traumas of embodied systemic oppression. Valeria lives in Northern California with her husband and daughter. When not innovating and refining liberative systems for deconstructing the patriarchy, she enjoys playing outdoors and creating beauty.
