In this episode, I’m joined by Bertha Elena, a compassionate advocate and trailblazer in the field of psychedelic-assisted therapy. Together, we explore how this emerging modality can help address womb trauma—emotional scars stemming from fertility challenges, miscarriage, difficult births, and more. Bertha shares her deeply personal journey through infertility and how psychedelic-assisted therapy offered a breakthrough in her healing process.
Whether you’re navigating womb-related trauma or curious about new therapeutic approaches, this conversation offers insights into how psychedelics can unlock powerful healing experiences.
We Will Cover: - What womb trauma is and how it silently affects many birthing people - The role of psychedelic-assisted therapy in processing deeply held trauma - Bertha’s personal journey through infertility and grief - The importance of proper support and integration during psychedelic experiences - How to explore this healing modality safely and responsibly
