In this episode of The Mama Psychedelia Podcast, I interview Micah Stover. Micah is a psychedelic somatic therapist working with clients healing from complex trauma. Her work revolves around supporting women and mothers in their path to reclaim agency and embodiment from systemic patriarchal oppression. Micah has a book called Healing Psychedelics which will be published in October 2024 focused on her experience as a survivor of trauma and a therapist in the psychedelic space. She is a featured guest speaker and writer on podcasts like Ten Laws with East Forest and Back from the Abyss, as well as a contributing author for DoubleBlind and Women on Psychedelics. She hosts monthly retreats in Mexico, and travels across the United States to present and facilitate. Micah has a BA in philosophy with an emphasis on Buddhist studies and an MA in psychoanalysis and feminist theory. Micah is a mama to two beautiful boys and loves spending time with them in the ocean in her free time.
Together we explore what lead her to leading a life in Mexico with her husband and sons, what brought her to psychedelic therapy, some of her own intiations in the psychedelic space as well as her entrance into Motherhood, and some golden nuggets she has gathered as a mother and a therapist, she speaks to the specific medicines she works with in the trauma healing space and their impact.
