Psychedelic Culture 2024 offered a unique set of educational experiences that as a psychotherapist, I have not had the opportunity to learn from any other conference. It was so rich in information about traditional practices from which I learned a great deal. In addition, the perspectives of diverse populations provided me with a lot of new knowledge and informs my ongoing work with the LGBTQ+ community.

It is a super positive community event that seeks to uplift the voices of a broad cross-section of the psychedelic community without prioritizing big pharma, the medical industry, researchers or legislators. I appreciated hearing these voices.
