Purpose: Because we need more community and we cannot succeed alone. Mentorship is the key to career growth and success. You are welcome whether you have recently graduated from school or are an expert in your field.

This is a free call to action for ALL survivors and allies to address sexual trauma and abuse in the psychedelics and indigenous medicine environments.

This is a call for community, this is a call for transformative justice. We have to build the community that we need— this forum is step one towards that goal.

There is an enormous amount of vulnerability when seeking healing via psychedelics and indigenous medicine. There is enormous vulnerability when in an altered state. An alarming number of people arrive at the need for psychedelic and indigenous healing due to a history of experiencing trauma. Many come to sacred earth medicine after other methods have failed to heal and connect them back to their bodies. The same population is most at risk for sexual trauma. An alarming number of people are being harmed in both underground and above ground/Western medicine spaces.

We will not remain silent. We will not remain unprotected. We must take action to protect ourselves and each other. We cannot do this alone. We need help, accountability, and support. If you have been harmed, witnessed harm, heard of harm— this space is for you.

Our intentions for this forum is:

• to create community

• to have a space to process individual and collective harm

• to create an action plan for safety and accountability

• to tend to survivors

• to help you regain your power

• to offer support and resources

Internal Family Systems (IFS) can be one of the most compassionate and gentle approaches for addressing trauma, addiction, depression, and anxiety. By building on the original IFS model and integrating the ketamine-assisted therapy protocol, participants in this program will deepen and elevate their practice. This training incorporates anti-oppressive, social justice, and multicultural considerations, with special emphasis on serving marginalized communities, including the LGBTQ and trans communities.

Using the IFS protocol, participants will learn tools to minimize harm and prioritize safety throughout all stages of the therapeutic process. They will learn how to connect with and attend to their own parts, as well as facilitate the healing of their clients’ parts.

Participants will gain a historical and foundational understanding of ketamine and its application within a therapeutic model. They will also learn to identify the three-pronged process of Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) — preparation, dosing, and integration — and understand its importance in sustaining relief from mental health symptoms.

Learning Objectives:

• Explain the fundamentals of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and its utility in treating mental health symptoms and racial trauma, particularly when combined with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).

• “Identify the three-pronged process of KAP, which includes preparation, dosing, and integration.

• Describe the advantages of using IFS as a supportive model in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.”

• Describe the concept of cultural humility and explain how this perspective can enhance the effectiveness of both IFS and KAP in achieving sustainable healing outcomes.

• List three strategies for addressing culture, racial trauma, and biases in clinical practice.
