Integration Is the Riskiest Phase (Most Practitioners Don’t Know Why)
A free live training on why integration is often the riskiest phase of psychedelic work, focusing on post-session destabilization and the clinical gap many practitioners miss. It covers a 3-phase framework for preparation, session support, and the first 30 days of integration.
Course Overview
This free live training examines the "integration gap" that can appear after a psychedelic session, when clients may initially seem well and later experience sleep problems, re-emerging patterns, or nervous system destabilization. The session is led by Dr. David Rabin and Paul F. Austin and centers on a clinical framework for managing post-session risk. Topics include the biology of post-journey neuroplasticity, preparation as a safety factor, navigating peak intensity, and identifying whether a client is stabilizing or unraveling during integration. The training also references a 3-phase architecture for reducing post-session dysregulation. The course is aimed at medical professionals, therapists, clinicians, facilitators, guides, psychedelic practitioners, integration coaches, performance coaches, and newer practitioners who want a more structured, neuroscience-informed approach to safety and support. The source page indicates a live training format and mentions a bonus integration guide for live attendees.
