As the daughter of two psychologists, Brooke Kettering grew up fascinated by the psyche and how drugs affect the brain. Through her studies in neuroscience and psychology, as well as her own therapeutic experiences with psychedelic drugs, Brooke was inspired to become a ketamine therapist. In this conversation, we chat about the new psychedelic movement, along with other mental health topics and techniques: managing fear while surfing, how detaching ourselves from our ego and understanding our dreams can help us process our emotions, psychedelic drug experiences, ketamine therapy and its benefits (notably increased ability to learn, depression, suicide prevention and calming rigid personality structures), as well as the role a therapist plays in medical administration. Finally, Brooke touches on the legality of psychedelic medicinals and provides information on how to seek out ketamine therapy.
