Welcome back! I'm Dr. Tracy Kim Townsend, and in this episode, I sit down with Amy Wong Hope, a clinical social worker and trauma therapist based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Amy is trained in MDM-assisted therapy through MAPS and founded the Psychedelic Studies Certificate Program at Southwestern College, aimed at educating healthcare professionals in psychedelics. She’s also the coauthor of Small Doses of Awareness: A Microdosing Companion, which features a 12-week guided journal.
In this episode, we explore:
- Microdosing—what it is and its potential benefits.
- Amy's journey into the world of psychedelics and trauma therapy.
- How psychedelics support neuroplasticity and help process trauma.
- Insights into writing her book and the challenges in the psychedelic field.
- The influence of identity on expression, including Amy’s experience as an Asian American woman.
