In this episode of A Simple Therapy Podcast, Sindee Gozansky talks with Keith Kurlander, MA, LPC, co-founder of the Integrative Psychiatry Institute and a pioneer in psychedelic therapy education. Keith shares his own mental health journey, beginning with a near-suicide at 19, and how decades of healing led him to build innovative training programs that are reshaping the field.
They dive into the growing role of psychedelic-assisted therapy, what integration really means after a transformative session, and why trauma is often the common thread in mental health struggles. Keith also explains the roots of integrative psychiatry—addressing physiology, nutrition, trauma, and spirituality together—and why every therapist will need at least a basic understanding of psychedelic therapy in the years ahead.
This conversation is a reminder that we all carry puzzles inside of us, and healing isn't about solving them once and for all—it's about showing up with compassion, curiosity, and gratitude for the journey.
