Meet Christopher Brown, a Veteran Marine who found a new career path as a licensed therapist. Chris opens up about his entry into the Marine Corps, the traumatic experiences he endured, and the challenges he faced reintegrating into society after his deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan. 

He shares his personal counselling journey, shedding light on how it not only helped him overcome PTSD but also inspired him to become a therapist. We also explore on EMDR, a therapeutic technique for trauma healing, and the potential of psychedelic therapy, focusing on the preparation, integration, and the promising outcomes it offers. 

While Chris is a seasoned therapist, it's vital to note that this episode isn't a therapy session. Also, be aware that the use of psychedelic substances is illegal in many parts of North America. Join us for this insightful discussion with Chris Brown.
