Person-centred Music with Mendel Kaelen

An on-demand workshop to support your understanding of the role of music in psychedelic therapy and how to apply it in a person-centred way

Workshop overview

The combined use of music and psychedelic substances predates Western medicine, with roots in Indigenous cultural practices. Yet with the rise of psychedelic therapy in the West, practitioners are left with questions regarding the function of music and how to support patients with music effectively in clinical settings. 

Join Dr. Mendel Kaelen in our on-demand workshop series, designed to support current and aspiring psychedelic-assisted therapists to become more confident in their use of music within altered states therapy.

Included with a Wavepaths subscription. Explore workshop introduction and scientific foundations.
