A Holistic, Non-Pathologizing Approach
At the heart of this process group is a belief in the inherent wholeness of each individual and the transformative potential of these profound experiences. The aim is not to diagnose or pathologize, but to help individuals make sense of and integrate their experiences in a way that is meaningful to them. Psychedelic experiences are understood not as disorders or abnormalities but as invitations to explore the inner landscape, often revealing hidden aspects of self, unconscious material, or even profound spiritual insights.
Integration from a Jungian & Buddhist Lens
The group process draws on both Jungian depth psychology and Buddhist teachings to offer a multidimensional framework for integration. From a Jungian perspective, participants are encouraged to explore the archetypal energies, unconscious material, and potential shadow aspects of their experience. Psychedelics often bring forward the repressed, the forgotten, or the unresolved parts of the psyche, and through these explorations, participants can engage in what Jung described as individuation—the process of becoming whole by integrating all aspects of the self.
From a Buddhist perspective, Sean emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, impermanence, and non-attachment in navigating psychedelic experiences. Just as the Buddha taught about the transient nature of all things, psychedelic experiences—whether blissful or challenging—can be understood as passing moments that provide insight into the nature of suffering, attachment, and liberation. The goal is not to cling to any particular experience or outcome, but to observe, reflect, and allow the lessons to unfold organically.
